Newton is healing well and the antibiotic seems to be helping fight the infection. I clean it with antibacterial soap and a washcloth each day to remove any of puss from the incision. I also have been cleaning the scabs off of his fur. As I was inspecting the incision, I came across 5 staples that had been missed. I was able to work 2 of the staples out myself. The remaining staples I will let Dr. Roberts take care of.
