Just want to let everyone know Rags is doing fine. She started eating yesterday morning and feeling much better. By night she was ready to bark at Monty when he was let out of his crate and she put in hers. They are not being permitted to run together yet as Rags will forget she's not to overdo it. It amazes me how fast dogs can recover from surgery - humans certainly don't seem to recover that fast. Anyway, I really appreciated all the responses on rimadyl.
