Chewy

Well we also had a little bit of excitement one night between Christmas and New Years Eve. WE had my old boss and his wife over for dinner one night as we hadn't been able to get together in a while. We had ordered pizza (yes I totally wussed out of cooking but only because I ran out of time) and eaten and had some wine and where going to show them around the house since they hadn't been over in over a year and never seen Sam's room or really upstairs. So we showed them Sam's room and my old boss went into the kitchen to put his wine glass down and Chewy ran around the other way and they literally ran right into each other and breaking Chewys leg all the way through both bones. Poor Chewy. My old boss and Dan rushed her off to the emergency vet. Then the next day we took Chewy to a surgeon where we had a plate put in her leg to stabilize it. Poor thing has had to wear a cast and a cone for almost 5 weeks. She is now done with both but still on very restricted activity although she tries to get away with a lot more..This is Chewy the next morning after it happened in her first cast.

Here she is post surgery with her new cast and cone. She HATED that cone. But now the cast is off and the cone is off and she is well on her way to a full recovery.
