SO glad! Hooray!

Boy, poor Caleb. The old guy is probably just DREADING it each time he sees you with that worried look in your eye...You probably give off the 'vibe,' too! Tif and Britanny knew me and the vibes I'd give off so, trust me, he KNOWS! You can now breathe easily, Murray, and give the old guy a break. Maybe, go out and get him a burger from In-N-Out or something to celebrate. :) (hide his pills in THAT!) Woo-hoo! We''ll celebrate on our end with a chicken sandwich or something (Cheli's allergic to beef...so we'll have to do something besides In-N-Out)

XOXO,
Sherry

I'm so happy to hear that news, Murray!

That's great news, Murray. I'm glad your buddy got a good report from the vet.

Thanks All, those IN-N-Out burgers must be good because my son-in-law cannot pass one of those places by without stopping.

And I will definitely take your advice Sherry and give him a break because he actually stops whatever he is doing (like licking himself) if he hears me coming or if I speak while he is doing it. I would hate to be striking fear into him when I am just trying to protect him. Murray

I am so happy that caleb is ok. Our eight year old dog had surgery this month. The vet thought it was a tumor but he had a very abcessed tooth.

*Whew* ... *sigh of relief*

That is great news! I've been so worried for Caleb but mostly worried for you, Murray.

What a great Christmas gift.

Edna

Great news Murray. Thanks for letting us know.

Yes, what a wonderful Christmas gift indeed and for you too tdr4. And so nice to see you posting again, ladobe. And to you, Edna, I was worried for me too. I guess I don't need to explain. Murray

Hi Murray, I was gone when you first posted, but I can feel for you. It is such a relief when you get good news.

Happy new year to you two buddies!

Murray, I thought you might like to see a picture of Quinton's last day in physical therapy. It's called hydrotherapy (under water treadmill). It was taken last week. He had surgery for a torn ligament in September. They had to put a steel plate in to keep the bones from slipping. He was down for a good 8 weeks and went through several more weeks of therapy. He's my big-hunk-of-love *lol*

He is beautiful and it is amazing that he is doing that. Was it difficult to get him in there? I have gotten to the point where I feel soooo bad everytime Caleb goes in for follow-up because he gets so scared and I feel like such a meanie. He actually had to go back for an extra treatment because he got attacked just a block from our house by a pit bull dog who got loose from his owner accidently. It messed up Caleb's stitches so he needed to have staples put on but he is mending nicely now. The stitches came out a few days ago. The owner felt very bad and I didn't say anything to him and just paid the additional vet bill. At this point I am just trying not to think about the cost because I have my baby back.

Quinton looks like he might be part Newf and quite large too. I love his face. Where did you have to take him for the rehab? My youngest daughter had all kinds of alternative treatments to suggest for Caleb but I was afraid to take the chance with things like tumors.

Nice to see your post too, Penny. I was thinking about you today because I noticed my pipe vines have buds already. Apparently, they are as anxious for spring as I am.

I'm so glad his injuries were not severe but I bet it scared the beejeezous out of you.

Quinton's mom was a St. Bernard, daddy was a Labrador. I call him a Labranard *lol* I use to take Quinton to the dog park but after having been attacked twice by a boxer and twice by a pitbull we stopped going. I am fortunate, there is a rehab center near my home.

Your pipevine is blooming?!? Mine has died back :-(
