Busted

Oh Axle.  Our poor dog is suffering through week two with this horrendous plastic cone around his head.  We've had to put several layers of duct tape on it already to keep it intact.  His stitched up cut was looking really, really good - until Axle got the cone off his head and licked the scab off it.  I know that's kind of gross, but we all know that scabs work best when left to fall off on their own, right?
 So, we Ben wrangled the cone back together and got it securely fastened to Axle's collar with some zip ties. Poor Axle.  For about an hour he had the freedom and joy of licking places on his body that he's been trying and failing to lick for an entire week.  Hopefully, he didn't do damage to his healing wound so the cone can officially come off on Friday.
