Pogo went down with IVDD and I truly didn't know how I was going to get through the day. I had such a huge range of emotions, fear, anger, guilt (oh, the guilt) but my DLC family helped us so much that day and the days that followed. So I just wanted to sayto you all.
I would like to send an extra shout out to Amy who answered my million questions and was both my rock and my tree of knowledge.
A year later and my #1 Sausage is doing great. I still have guilt and fear (that it might happen again), but I am also enjoying every day with Poges as the gift that it is. Well, not so much at 4:30 a.m. when he decides he wants breakfast, but even then, I still wouldn't trade him in.
Here is Pogo this morning. A year after his surgery at the University of Guelph.
The great black and tan hunter stalks his prey, for the ever elusive piece of kibble that fell from the sky.
After feasting on his kill, the warrior retreats, yet still remains on high alert in case another kibble should emerge.

:awww: The black and tan hunter looks so great. I'm so glad that he's back hunting and keeping the Kharman household safe from renegade kibble.
You can never know what might be, enjoy what is.

I am glad he's doing so well. You never know when a piece of kibble might turn up, so it's good to stalk the kitchen on and off all day long
