E-Collar Consent:
It is hospital policy that all pets with an incision are discharged with an e-collar to protect the pet from chewing or licking the surgical site. Serious complications (i.e. dehiscence) may arise if a pet licks or chews apart an incision. We are able to provide your pet with an e-collar upon discharge and it will be yours to keep.
