I don't hear any boo hooin' in that last post, just joy.  Awesome news, but don't forget, he may have an off day or two during recovery.  I know you are glad to have him home.

So wonderful to read that Flash is home and doing great! superstar superstar superstar!! Life is grand when they go for their first pee – especially so soon after surgery!

You've probably read that the 2 weeks after surgery can be very up and down. It helped us a lot to know that ahead of time. You'll get through it just fine!

Honey thinks Flash is very cute!!

Hey, you beat me to the "Flash Dance" – BOL. That is wonderful news about Flash. Just take it one day at a time, as these next 2 weeks can be brutal at times. Time to celebrate!

Paws up, and sending hugs!

SO glad to hear that Flash is doing well.  Lots of positive thoughts going your way and hoping for a smooth, speedy recovery!  Remember to stay positive and I'm sure Flash will be a great tripawd!  Good luck and remember to utilize this website and the wealth of knowledge everyone has if you have questions.  Get well soon Flash!wink
