We are soooooo excited to tell you that today is Zeus' two month ampuversary!  He seems to be recovering from the Pancreatitis and feeling much better today, so that alone is reason to celebrate.

I must say that our vet, a wonderful ortho/general vet, but not an oncologist, was not at all optimistic or encouraging when he delivered the OSA diagnosis to us.  I don't know if he was afraid to offer false hope or maybe he's been burned before by someone that thought their dog didn't live long enough after treatment.  Nonetheless, we were so discouraged that we almost made "the" appointment.  At the last minute our instinct won out and we called to schedule the amputation instead of the "other".  THANK GOD.  We have had two wonderful months with him – feeling good – and we hope for many more!  We are tired, but wouldn't change anything!

Zeus says:  It is his special day and he wants his most favorite food – McDonald's French Fries for everyone!!!

Mom says:  Unfortunately, we don't want to anger the pancreas with french fries, so Zeus gets oatmeal.  But, if someone out there could have a few fries in his honor, that would be great!

Hooray for 2 months! Hooray for going with your gut and not taking him for the 'other' appointment!

I'm giving Rita one of her dehydrated sweet potato "french fry" treats and telling her it's a McD's french fry in Zeus's honor. (Hopefully she won't catch on…)

Lots of belly rubs and butt scritches for Zeus (in lieu of fries…) to celebrate!

What a great day Zeus, congratulations!  Don't worry, I'll be the one to make the "french fry sacrifice," but they will be from In-N-Out, not McD's (hope that counts!).  Try to remember that any treat you get that's above and beyond your normal meals still counts as a yummy treat (even if it's oatmeal)!  Enjoy your day!!

Yay Zeus.  What a great milestone.  Hoppy 2 month ampuversary.  The girls will definitely get fries in Zeus' honor tonight.

Congratulations Zeus!!!!!

Happy ampuversary Zeus!  So happy to see how well he is doing.  That stinks about the french fries.  :(  Well it looks like Tasha and I will have to take one for the team and have some to celebrate his ampuversary.  Any excuse for McDonald's fries!

Happy Ampuversary, sweet Zeus! Hope you have a GREAT day!

To his great disappointment, Rumbles will also forgo the french fries in your honor. He already had steak this week for his ampuversary and if he has too much people food, he gets a bit rumbley in his tumbley. Ya know what I mean?!

So, banana-yogurt dog cookies at our house today to celebrate your special day! Yay!
