Wound Pictures

 

 

 

 

This is a picture of her wound when we first began to explore and clean it.  You can see large amount of dark colored tissue in the area- this is dead tissue.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is a picture of her wound after we did our first wound cleaning.  You can see the large area where the dead skin tissue washed away with her fur.

This is a picture of her wound when we removed her sutures.  You can see how we had to suture it closer and closer together.  All that remains of her open wound is a small scab in the center.
