He's had a buster collar on for most of the day (he was less than impressed, to put it lightly), and I have taken it off him to give him a bit of a rest from being so uncomfortable.
He has just been lying in front of me with me stroking him, occasionally he'd go to lick his stitches and all I have to do is tell him to "leave it" and he does. He then rolled over and I noticed he had some of his hair tangled with his stitches, and he let me sweep it away for him (it must have tweaked a bit) but he didn't flinch. He was lying there and letting me rub his tummy and all of his bare patch, nearly going to sleep.
It's times like this that I feel so privileged to have a dog in my life who trusts me so much. I can't understand people who mistreat their animals.
Go and give your dog/cat/rabbit/guinea pig/goldfish a fuss everyone.
