Yes, Hank went under the knife yesterday. The only problem is to keep him quiet for 2 weeks. So he goes in his pen most of the day so he won't run around fighting with his sis and jumping in the water trough. Personal note to Ms Myrtle; "Dear Sweetheart I am missing some body parts but my love for you is still real and I hope and dream some day we can be together" Love Hank, still a hunk of a Weim.

HANK!!!! You've got an owweee right now so you take it easy, okay?

Your picture...OMD! You are so handsome! And only real men can wear pink!!

I explained to Merry Myrtle what it meant to be snipped and that soon she would be experiencing the same kind of snip and stitch. At first she was afraid this woukd interfere with her relationship with Hank. I explained that Hank's love was real and he was still a "Hunk of a Weim" and the removalmof those body larts actually made him even more appealing! That made her so happy!!

.erry Myrtle trying to understand what snipping Hank meant!

Our story: Broke rear leg in June 2013 - non-conclusive results for cancer so leg was plated and pinned. Enlarged spleen in September 2013 and had it removed and was diagnosed with Hemangiosarcoma and started chemotherapy. Became a Tripawd January 8th, 2014 and definitive Hemangiosarcoma diagnosis. Three major surgeries in 7 months and Shelby took them all like a champ only to lose her battle to cancer in her brain. We had 8 amazing extra months together and no regrets. #shelbystrong #loveofmylife

LOL, I love it.  Good luck on keeping Hank quiet.  I just did that x2 & the girls also had their gastropexies done at the same time.  Let me tell you it was so much fun keeping them quiet (can you hear my sarcasm in my type ).

Hank, I am glad this doesn't have any affect on your relationship with Merry Myrtle.  🙂
