Slow day at work today...Was able to finish fencing my pasture at home for my goats...thanks to Caitlin for all her help! Tomorrow we will have a busy day. Today, looked at Gigi, the rescue dog with the oronasal fistula and the repair failed:( May see if the surgeons at UGA are willing to "donate" their expertise to repair it. It's a difficult region to repair due to the prevalence of bacteria in the mouth and the action of the tongue against the roof of the mouth. The fistula doesn't bother Gigi, but causes a snotty nose permanently...not ideal if someone were to adopt her down the road! We'll figure out what are options are next week-will have to wait 4-5 weeks before another surgery is attempted!
