YAAAAAAAAAY FOR BARKLEY!!! OMD!! ! This really is an amazing recovery! He .ust be thrilled to be rid of that bum leg!! 🙂
Word of caution Mr Barkley, NO OVERDOING IT!! Sounds like it's very hard to have you take it slowly though. We don't wa t any strained or sore muscles and joints poppi g up, okay?
This REALLY is great news! 🙂 Good job everybody! 🙂
Hugs to all!

Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!
it's amazing what our guys can adapt. It's very likely that Barkley did have a lot more pain than you realized. Dogs don't show pain in the same way humans do and very young dogs learn to adapt to the pain. When Cora had her second amputation, to remove her stump, she became a much happier and well adjusted dog. It became very clear to me that she'd been in pain with it and having the stump gone was a relief. Good luck on having Barkley rest and hoping for a great recovery.
