Poor Pitiful Puppies

   After the race, Taylor and I headed to Crest to pick up my lil' Scooter, recovering from yesterday's knee surgery. She was not the doped-up, listless pup that I thought she'd be... she was perky, excited to see me, and ready to go—despite the fact that her cast is as big as she is. #@$%*!! I have to keep her quiet & confined for at least 6 weeks, and she'll need a full 3-4 month recovery before her second surgery. That's a long time to keep a 7-month old from re-injuring her leg! Good thing she's cute enough to be worth the effort, as are her sisters, who had their surgeries on Thursday.
   How pathetic are these girls? VERY, I hope, because we need to convince people to help us raise $3000 to cover their vet bills, so that they can all go to loving new homes debt-free! If you can help, please contact us through the MSIR website.
Sore, but still happy!

Skeeter the brat won't keep her cast on; chewed it off despite the cone!
   I'm thinking we should just go for the full poodle cut on all 3 of them, don't you? Why stop at the legs?

  1. What cuties :) I have a shiba inu who had to have surgery on her knees. She had a severe case of luxating patellas. Luckily we were able to get her surgery. Now the little girl is happy and full of life. Hope the pups have a quick and speedy recovery.
