Caring for a Three Legged Dog or Cat

I am a 9 year old schnauzer boy. My mommy and daddy had a schnauzer girl (Gracie) when my mommy spotted me in a local pet store. Gracie was very sick and could not see. Mommy not only fell in love with me, she thought I might be good for Gracie. I was only a few months old and after mommy and daddy got me home, Gracie was not so happy. I was a little to much for her. Mommy cried all night but the decision was made that I needed to go back to the pet store. Mommy cried all night again ..... so daddy came back and paid even more for me a second time. Gracie became so sick that I had to live with another family for about six months. I came back home with mommy and daddy when I was six months old, two weeks before we said our final goodbye to Gracie. I have been very healthy and so much comfort to my mommy and daddy all these years. They love me VERY much. My mommy found a golf ball size knot on my right hind leg at the elbow and the doctor says my leg needs to come off (so that I can spend even more time with my mom and dad). They are having hard time with this, but I am not as worried as they are. Mom is going to document my journey for other moms and dads so that they will know what to expect and because she loves me SO MUCH!! Hugs and Paws ...... Sulli!
