Taking care of Kangal puppy's hernia

Preparing Firat for the procedure
Last Wednesday, the little male Kangal puppy named Firat, recently donated to CCF, was operated on for an umbilical hernia (this is a common type of hernia in puppies), in CCF clinic.

Rosie Glazier, DVN, and I performed the procedure, which lasted no more than an hour, while CCF's Dutch intern Sanne monitored the puppy’s anesthesia. The puppy was awake soon after the end of the surgery and was back in the kraal in the evening with his sheep and goats family. He is being monitored and the stitches will be removed in 10 days. He is as jumpy and playful as usual.
