8 Weeks Post Surgery



We're done with vet visits! Hooray!


Bella had her 8 week check-up yesterday, and the doctor thinks she's doing great! No more visits every two weeks. He said she doesn't have to come back until her yearly check-up next year. She's still limping a bit around the house though, but the doctor thinks she's either doing it for sympathy, or she's not confident that she can use it yet and it's psychological. So unless it seems like she's had a big set back, she's close to recovery. He said it's usually closer to 6 months when they full recover though. She was a HAPPY dog yesterday when we got home from the vet. Her doggy door got opened for the first time in 2 months, not more leash to go outside in our backyard, and her toys magically reappeared. She has a new sense of freedom, and she's back to barking at every dog that walks by the fence... I didn't miss that!

Her hair hasn't grown back completely yet on her leg, but it's starting to look more normal. We're so happy to have our happy dog back :) Thanks for all your well wishes!

Here's a couple videos of how happy she was yesterday.
