De ja vu

Remember the lovely Rosie?



Rosie tore her cruchet ligament because she forgets that she is almost 9 and insists on haring around with the younger dogs. She had an operation on Wednesday to fix it. She came home last night and is doing fine but missing her pack - Peggy and Lochie won't see her for a couple of days, just to give her some unassisted healing time.



Luckily Dr Jim (now on a Taph-funded holiday), doesn't charge as much as Dr. Bill. for the same operation.


Prepare for a pattern destash early next week or sometime before the credit card bill comes in.

The bandage is quite striking and it says "ouch" on it.

Poor Rosie, she looks so sad and naked. She's breaking my heart just to look at her so forelorn.

Poor Rosie - Lily did that one too - very painful both to pocket and puppy :/
Love the purple cast, though ...

I understand the cost here - I once paid out several weeks pay for ferret surgery! These pets become so dear to us. Hope recovery goes well.
