Remember a couple of weeks ago I posted that my dog, Jade, had been hit by a car and sustained a broken bone in her foot? I then made a plastic-lined splint cover to keep it dry and protected when she goes outside, and several of you suggested showing it to the vet to see if it might be marketable. Well, yesterday I took Jade in for follow-up care, and the vet was very impressed with the cover! SHE suggested (I didn't even have to bring it up) that I make up a few in different sizes and bring them into her office to sell. So I'll give it a try, and thanks to all of you who suggested that I go for it.
Jade is healing very nicely. She was supposed to have a plaster cast put on yesterday and wear it for a month, but the bone was healing so quickly that the vet just put on a fresh splint instead. In one week, I can change the dressing on the splint myself, then at the end of two weeks the splint can be taken off completely. I can do that myself, instead of having to make yet another visit ($$$$) to the vet.
If I can sell some of these covers, maybe this cloud will have a silver lining, after all.
