Haha, I thought we were already friends too! Yes, surgery is tomorrow...yikes, I am so stressed about it. Thank you for your kind words, and I will update when I hear from the vet, for sure.
Hi guys, long time no talk but I have some questions regarding Sofie's acl injury. I think that Timmy ruptured or injured his yesterday and I'm going to call the vet and set up an appt asap for him. I'm curious as to why you chose which way to go with her. I want to know options on surgeries or other fixes. I would like him to go back to being a ball crazy kind of guy. Maybe you could give me some material for research and I can do that before consulting. Our big problem up here is being remote. We're 250 miles from any kind of big city stuff so it makes it rough for physical therapy, etc. Other consideration is that Timmy weighs 35 pounds (he's very lean at that weight) and that seems to be a cut off point for traditional vs TPLO. I know that you went with CM and I'm optimistically wondering how you came to that choice. Perhaps that might work for him???
Hello! I bought the water bottle cover with water bottle at a pet boutique store near me. How awesome if that would have been my idea and sold them, I would be rich. :) Its amazing some of the simplest things that are invented and make people rich. Like those silly rubberbands they make into shapes that is the latest craze, why didnt I think of making those either, lol...darn.
Just a hello. We love your beach profile pic and are glad you got some swimming in over Memorial day! We are taking a trip to Jacksonville in about a week, but Ed and Gem will stay home with Auntie and Uncle...I'm sure they will be spoiled. have a great summer!!
Thanks for you response. When you said that you kept your dogs activity restricted, exactly what did you do. I am unsure of how to keep Gunny from his usual reactions to auditory cues...like running in circles when he hears me start to open the door to the back yard, or running to the door if someone knocks. I would like to avoid going the surgical route. Dr. put him on an non steroidal anti inflamatory and started him on a glucosamoine supplement. We will go for recheck in a week. Does you dog still have any sort of a limp? How long did the recovery process take?
But you still get to see all these beautiful flowers coming in and going out!!!!! I love flowers and have several flower gardens (some are more weeds) but this is a hobby and stress reliever to be out with the dogs playing in the dirt!
Ha ha, ok, now it makes sense. It's not a problem, it's more funny than anything else because you had no idea what I was talking about and I thought I was going nuts. :)
Finn is doing ok. No major limping. He's still stiff when he gets out of the crate but is fine after a few steps.
I've been putting pumpkin in his Kong and freezing it then giving it to him when I leave for work after taking him out at lunch and he loves it. He can't be left with stuffed toys because he'll eat them and he seems to get bored with his Nylabone so this is an exciting distraction. That's all the excitement I have to tell about. :)
Really? Maybe I misunderstood your statement. In this discussion in your first comment it mentioned that you were waiting for your first bottle. I must be confused.
