Gus here,count me in for left amputee, makes me feel normal, although anybody going by wouldn't know I'm missing a leg if I wasn't hopping so fast. Sounds like your doin' great. We pretty much let Gus do whatever he wanted from the start, he used the stairs the first night he was home, and at five weeks he was climbing up in the hay mows again. We don't tie him up so once he started feeling better he was out roaming the fields again, although he stayed a little closer to the house, but now he will go down the lane to check things out, but I will say he's a little more whipped when he gets back. You should see him dig with one front paw!!! Once Lycan gets past this part of the journey, you won't even know he's missing a leg, and he's even more unique now than he was before.  Paws up, Gus and Dan 

Welcome Lycan – glad you found your way over from PBF. Still so sorry about your boy – but glad to hear he's going for walks and recovering OK. It might be all the meds he's on giving him some trouble with his bowels, so it can't hurt to try pumpkin, I've always had success with it for both diarrhea and constipation.

Welcome to the pack! What a handsome boy Lycan is. I love the name. Glad he is doing well.

Took him back to the vet today for pain when rising. She said he has phantom pains and prescribed Gabapentin and told me to feed him some pumpkin. Finally had a BM!

Staples came out today and the surgical site is nice and clean; they did a great job. However, he is still jumpy and cautious. I have to make it known that I am approaching him or he will get scared and start screaming, he is still a little down and out and he wakes up from what I think are nightmares; it makes me sad.
