Not again

Originally posted 2023-05-17 11:54:32. Being my next surgery is May 31st I just need a little break. Now Saoirse needs to try and rest the “good” back leg since that leg takes the brunt of her weight in the back. Now we have been questioning whether we should have went ahead and had that bad leg amputated in the beginning. Is she going to be one of those dogs you see running over people’s feet…

While on the phone he tells me he found what looked to be an arm or leg of an animal. Raccoon? Cat? We are both not sure what it belonged to nor where the rest of the body was. Anybody know what it may have belonged to? (I darkened the picture to hopefully help with…

Chewy Day…

Originally posted 2023-04-27 09:33:48. Your purchases help us take care of Chewy and everything that comes with this surgery. We knew his ACL was torn but not a full tear nor did we know anything about his meniscus tear. It is funny because if you recall my husband had a meniscus tear and they had to take out over half of his meniscus. Now Chewy had to have half of his meniscus taken out just…

No CPR?

Originally posted 2023-04-24 10:43:11. I dropped Chewy off this morning for his ACL surgery. I have never had someone ask me if they have any problems during surgery did we want them to attempt CPR. Uhhhh. There are people that say no? I mean, the money you are spending to get the dog’s leg fixed and then you don’t want to attempt CPR? I mean, God forbit anything like that happens but yes, by all…

So if you have been following me for a while you may remember I had been waiting for Chewy’s next surgery to get scheduled.

I started balling my eyes out and…

Blessed times 3

Originally posted 2017-01-03 17:21:17. Within the span of the past month and some change it seems it has been non-stop around here.

It was seemed to be going ok several weeks after. Other than the fact I had to keep…
