Update on Paris

Just a quick update on Paris, but first a huge thank you for all the well wishes. I was over-whelmed to open my email when we got home this afternoon and find so many thoughtful and heartfelt remarks.

Paris's surgery went well, and her doctor was pleased with the procedure and the result. He said that she's resting fine now. She will have to wear her splint after surgery, which he wasn't anticipating but b/c of how the bone cracked down the length, he wants to give it extra support while healing. So she gets to keep her cool hot pink cast!

We get to bring her home tomorrow, but he wants to see her again the end of the week. Another trip to Belle Fourche!

More good news:
Malcolm talked to our broker this morning, who was understanding and the load we had was very flexible. We are home until further notice, at least the end of the week, so we can see Paris through her ordeal and hopefully take her with us when we leave in a few days.

SO: Paris is good, we get more home time, Malcolm now gets a few days to play since he worked the e.n.t.i.r.e. time we were home and is worn out, AND my mother-in-law and I discovered a delightful little coffee house and fabric store while killing time in Belle Fourche! We're all feeling better today!

I'm so glad Paris' surgery went well and she is now on the road to recovery. Now the hard part - keeping her quiet as things heal. I'm glad you got the week to get through this AND gosh, I've not been to Belle Fourche in years! Stay warm the nasty cold is supposedly on the way! Hugs to the girls.

Thanks for the update. I was thinking about you and your ordeal - so, I'm glad to hear that all went well. I think I'd feel better to have the cast as extra support on my pup - although when Tucker broke his leg the splint they used kept slipping down. Be sure to watch for that, or ask the vet about it.

I hope your puppy will be okay.One of my rat terriers tore her ACL at the begining of the summer.She was acting just like a bull that had been stifled.According to my vet it the same thing.So hard to see your dog in pain.After surgery she is much better.Love your blog-we seem to read a lot of the same ones.I got some from your list.
