Welcome to the club, Tango and family. I don't have anything to offer that hasn't already been said.
We had no sleep deprivation, but our toughest part was probably on day 4 or so when all the surgery meds had worked their way through Dakota's system and he took a big psychological crash. That was the closest I came to wondering if I'd made a mistake. If Tango does that, it's pretty typical. So much for them to work out that we can't imagine: new ways to balance, pain meds making them loopy, etc. Tango will give you a new perspective on life, though. That's pretty much a given.

From abandoned puppy to Tripawd Warrior Dude, Dakota became one of the 2011 February Furballs due to STS. Our incredibly sweet friend lived with grace and dignity till he impulsively raced over the Bridge on 12-15-12.
Dakota's thoughtful and erudite blog is at http://shari.tr.....pawds.com/
Thanks everybody, I feel like we're very lucky to have found you all, what an incredibly supportive community!
Hi Tango! You are a handsome one. I don't think there are mutts anymore. They're "designer" dogs. You can make up you own breed name
