Nikey's TPLO surgery

Well, took Proz for a short walk (freezing/raining)....she enjoyed, but couldn't wait to get back to Uncle Bruce...of course Uncle Bruce has decided it is much too boring here, and has gone home. He promised to come back tomorrow.. Proz is barking at "flyer guy" or someone/thing.

Anyways, bruce looked at Nikey's leg, and now it is all red...crap thought he might be licking, but I seem to remember it might be normal...have posted to orthodogs for feedback.

He still has his pain patches on...vet tech said I would have to come back in 3 days so they could take off, but I have not heard anything since (that was a phone call the night of surgery). So I figure I will take off saturday or sunday...they look like they might be getting itchy.
