Thanks everyone. Betsy went for her check up this morning. They didnt try and take off the sticky dressing cover as they said it was well stuck and she would howl. After reading Sheryls post about Kali i was quite pleased they didnt! Anyway everything seems fine, no swelling or soreness and temperature is normal. So i am really pleased.
Poor Betsy and poor you - what a shock! I hope she continues to recover quickly.
Having forked out £3,000 on Parker in under 3 months, I think good insurance (with the emphasis on the good!) is a must.
Gentle hugs all round
Wow £3,000 is a huge amount.
