Phantom/Emiko Had Cataract Surgery

Click to enlargeHere is what his new parents had to say:

"We wanted to update you on Phantom post-op. He's doing well and is currently resting easy (he had a pain pill 1-hr ago). Dr Corcoran said the surgery went well. He is moving around fairly well (trotted on a brief walk this evening) but is getting used to having the cone on (e-collar) so he bumps the cone into door jams. Attached is a photo from tonight. We're bringing him in tomorrow for his first check-up and Dr Corcoran will clean his eyes and show us how to maintain them (tonight and tomorrow he's just getting drops and antibiotics). So far so good - keep your fingers crossed! Thanks for all your support and best wishes!

Best,

Henry & Katrina

PS - In typical happy-go-lucky Phantom style, when he first walked into the room at Dr Corcoran's office and saw me, he wagged his tail, came over and leaned against my legs and plopped on his side for a tummy rub. He's such a great dog!!"



We are thrilled to hear that Phamton is doing so well. Thanks to his new family and his doctor for taking such great care of him, and thanks to everyone who contributed to help with his surgery!
