JJ's foot was severed at the metatarsals in a freak accident. His entire rear leg had to be amputated on 3-13-13. But my little Jack Russell Terrier/Chihuahua mix is a spunky one!
I can’t believe it’s been 6 months since JJ’s accident…tomorrow marks his 6 month amupversary. Time flies! He’s loving life inside with his buddy Princess and the girls. I’m saving up to get some stairs so he can come into bed with me at night now. I want him to be able to get […]
Alright you asked for it…Here is JJ having some fun playing around. And here is when he realized I “caught” him. Four legs??? pssshhhhh who needs the extra one?? 😉
Today is JJ’s 3 month ampuversary! He’s certainly enjoying the indoor life and he’s getting around really well. We let him outside with the “big boys” to play for about 10 minutes a couple of times of day. He also has his inside companion Princess so he’s never a lonely boy. My 3 daughters were […]
Well, JJ has always been an outside dog until his amp. Our 2 very large dogs outside prohibit him from being out there until he is FULLY healed…and I’m angling to make him and inside dog permanently 😉 He is now thoroughly enjoying the “inside” life…Mommy even sneaks him bacon (shhhhh! don’t tell Daddy)
Stitches came out today. JJ is a happy boy to have the pink, sparkly cone off…even if it was absolutely adorable LOL We are going to take him on a walk around the block tonight to see how he does. He is now 16 days post amp and doing great!
JJ got a thumbs up from the vet yesterday! His incision is healing well and his remaining back leg looks good. We can go ahead and take him of the Tramadol now (yay!) so hopefully I will have my bouncing boy back soon 🙂 A nice family stopped us as we were leaving […]
Today marks one week since JJ’s back leg was amputated. Boy has it been a LONG week! Appointment with the surgeon today at 4:30…I hope I’ve been doing enough for him. Just hard with 3 non-furry babies to look after too. All the girls are anxious to be able to touch JJ and have him […]
