Yesterday BLD went to the vet to see if, after his last operation, six weeks ago, he was growing any bone. Happy news to report.....he is!!!!! This also meant that he could finally get his apparatus removed. I realized that his first operation was at the beginning of June......this has been a 31/2 month process just to get him here. He now has a splint and wrapping that will stay on for three weeks and new X-rays will be done at that time....we'll see how he progresses from there. It was a relief for our director and myself, we deal with him everyday, and it would have been horrible to have his leg amputated after all this time. He's his usual crazy self......he still won't be hanging out with other dogs soon.
We were joking today....they took off his fall colors and put him in his best Husky Haven colors!!!! I want to thank all of you for your support......and he still has a long way to go.....if you can we still need the donations to help him long term. We will be picking a name soon....and for those of you that don't have your tees yet.....I'm still working on that. Please keep commenting....I love to hear from all of you!!! One more easy thing before I go today.......Chase is running a contest through their Community Giving program and we are one of the charities. If you go to this link and vote we have a chance to win some money to help us along....thanks in advance.
