Hi Everyone! I have another update.
Rox has been progressing so well the past few weeks. She has gotten on her feet, and is now hoping around like a pro. We've clipped the hair on her feet quite short, so she also has much better traction without socks/booties. This has made her much happier, and has allowed her to move around more freely.
Yesterday she took her trip to the vet to get her staples removed. While I know she still enjoys her visits to the vet, she was very happy to leave yesterday afternoon! She has been getting and out of the car much better also, so I was able to take the trip without help from the vet techs.
Her personality has finally returned, and she is back to her lazy happy self. She will be starting Chemo next week, on the 6th, so I'll be hoping things go well with that also.
Thank you all again for your continued support. I've included a picture of Rox looking very hip, sporting another of my favorite t-shirts. xD
That's fantastic news!! I'm so happy to hear that Rox's recovery is going so well. And she does look awesome in the t-shirt.
Way to go Rox!!!!! 
Keep up the good work and keep getting stronger to beat cancer's butt!
Sending positive energy to Rox for her upcoming chemo treatment.

May you finally be healthy and running free at the Rainbow Bridge. Until we meet again my sweet boy!
Oh sweet Rox! Yay I'm loving this update! Clipping the toe fur is smart, good job. Would it be OK if we posted her photo in our gallery? She is so adorable.

Very good news!! So happy everything is going so well ........I know Rox is ecstatic to have those annoying staples out. Just love, love, love this pic of her, she has such a sweet face.
Hoping all goes well with her chemo, most do, but some like my Polly had a more difficult time. There are plenty of medications to help her out if she is a bit sensitive to it.
Continue to keep us posted on her, and I will be keeping you and her in my thoughts....

What a beautiful girl!
We're so glad to hear she is adapting well to her new reality - and getting the staples out seems to be a turning point for many of our furbabies.
Good Luck starting chemo next week, Rox. Looking forward to many more updates.
Hugs

Sure thing Jerry! That would be really cool!
And thank you all! She has just been so full of life, happy and energetic, that you can't look at her without smiling. She is starting to pick up on her old routines now, and is even feeling well enough to roll on the carpet, lol.
Yay Rox!
Keeping toe fur short worked well toe Tripug Maggie too.
Good luck with chemo next week.
