So glad to jear Buddy is handling things like a champ! It's still very, very early in recovery, so just shortnpotty breaks and back inside. How is he dealing with being a "house dog"? Once he discovers the sofa he may want to become an insdie couch potato!
He's still on pain meds and thst can interfere with balance too. He'll work things out. Vets say it takes about two weeks to get through the soreness of the major sjrgery and about thirty days to adjust all the muscles, joints, etc.to walking on three legs.
Is he eating and drinking okay? Pooping and peeing? Does the pain seem to be managed? Is he sleeping pretty good? How 'bout you....are you sleeping okay??
Thanks for updating us. I know you have your hands full right now. Woukd love to see pictures when you can!
Hugs to Buddy and his humans!
Sally and Alumni Happy Hannah and Merry Myrtle and Frankie too!
Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!
Wooohoo Buddy! Yep, figuring out the new way of doing things on 3 is a bit challenging at first but you'll get there. Keep up the great recovery!
