OK, the dog thing was a little funny, as was your previous post. I'll take anything that makes me laugh these days.
But I get your point.

From PBS News:
"Whenever he is sentenced, Trump will have an opportunity to speak, as will his lawyers and prosecutors. He can only appeal the verdict after he is sentenced."

I'm not sure that means he won't find a way to delay the sentencing though.
These days, I'll believe it when I see it.
