Hysterectomy:May need help with my corgis in Jacksonville Florida.

I know this might be a bit awkward for the guys (maybe the ladies too) but I need a hysterectomy. I had back surgery July 28th and I am still in pain and bending down and opening the sliding glass door etc still really hurts. I know this maybe too early to ask but I might need some help with the corgs (babysitting them). I don't know yet about what schedule DH will have or DD will have, she works at McDonalds. I just wanted to put this out there in case my corgs need to go somewhere for a little while. I will let people know should anyone be able to help me. I live in Jacksonville Florida.

I can't help with baby-sitting, but I can tell you what helped me a LOT, and still does. I have a fenced yard, and a sliding door, so I bought a doggy door that fits in the opening of the sliding door. Not only do I not have to struggle with the weight of the door, I don't have to try to get to the door to let the doggies in and out. I have this one:

It just fits into the door frame. Here's some others:

When DH is out of town, I don't know if I could manage the dogs without this. Hope it helps. And best of luck.
