Surgery Is Over!


The vet called and said the surgery is over and Joey is awake and doing fine. It's been a really hard week, but I feel so much better that the surgery part of it is over. We are now ready to move on to step 3. Step 1 was getting him ready for the surgery with medications, limited walking and ice packs. Step 2 was the surgery. Step 3 is the healing process.

He should be home in about a week.

Thank you for all of your thoughts and prayers.

    Hi Y'all,

    My paws are still crossed for Joey and y'all. My Human says she is saying her prayers that Joey heals well and quickly.

    I know you miss him Scout. Just think what a great bud he'll be when he can keep up with you.

    Y'all come by now,
    Hawk aka BrownDog
