Today we went and seen our vet for a quick check to clear him before going down to MSU for the operation. Happily our wonderful vet said, " he's clean as a whistle"! While there I ran some of my never ending concerns by him. It easy to not notice how incredibly strong our dogs our. My vet informed me that they are "glass half full people". What a great way to be! So although Lucky runs and plays, it doesn't mean he is pain free. He is doing the best with what he has. I asked once again if the Total Hip Replacement was necessary, if this was the only good option and to my comfort he said they wouldn't do it if it wasn't absolutely needed. After exposing all my fears about the procedure my vet said to me, "You know your vet at MSU is one of the best". "Yes he is amazing", I said. " No he really is one of the best. One of the best in the world." How could you ask for more? We left feeling for the first time in days certain that we were going in the right direction and that direction was right to the organic food store. We got some good stuff, cell food, peanut butter and yogurt for his bones and many other things I didn't need. Tonight we are going to boil the bones so they can be filled with peanut butter and froze and then hopefully relax and think about nothing, absolutely nothing....
Oh and Lucky got a haircut so he doesn't look all funny with his back leg shaved, yes leg not even legs!!
