I'm so happy that I still have my boy. He's still happy, even on three legs. With his regained healthy weight, this last chemo round has been the easiest so far. I'm hoping PT can help us get him stronger, as his endurance has gone down. I'm taking pictures later, but I didn't want to miss sharing his milestone.

Since Riot hates change, we didn't do anything special. He did get lots of treats, and new toys come today.

You big cuddle boy! Seeing your handsome face light up my computer screen this morning was a perfect way to kick off the week.
What's your favorite treat that you got for the big occasion? Can't wait to see what kinds of toys you get to play with!

Thank you both. No cake or ice cream for him. He won't eat sweet things. He's definitely gotten more chicken than kibble these last few days, which he appreciates. His new toys were just squeaky tennis balls. They're his favorite. He kills the squeak pretty quickly, and then they lose a lot of luster for him. I'm glad we don't have chemo for three more weeks. He's lost some strength lately. We're back to PT Saturday.

My sweet soulmate Roane was diagnosed with osteo in June of 2019. Had a rear leg amp on July 2nd & crossed the rainbow bridge to be with her sister Gypsy on the first day of Autumn Sept 23 2019.

I don't have a PT update yet. However, here's Riot refusing to model his tripawds bandana.

Thank you. Yep. We're fighting the good fight. He had his longest walk in probably a month today. We're back to PT tomorrow. No chemo for almost three weeks, so we're trying to build him up. Assuming is scans are good, this will be his last round.

No PT today. Only a massage. He just wasn't up to the physical part. That was a bummer. We did get a Petsmart trip in. So, we go back to try again in two weeks. She didn't have any openings next weekend.
