Wow. That is wonderful of them. I wish I could kiss his long nose and rub his floppy ears.

Wow! How awesome is that? Great vet clinic and soooo good to see Rusty looking terrific! Tons more prayers and

I know he has been through a lot these past few days, but his pictures are wonderful!!! He WILL get through this, as you will!! He has the best Mom to take care of him!! You said you saw him pee, his bladder was probably full so he was leaking a bit and that is what you saw? My neurologist asked me if I was positive I had seen Theo pee because of this very reason. Sometimes they are so full it just leaks out. You didn't know, the meds will take care of the infection in a few days..I wouldn't worry about that at all. Same for the diarrhea, he's been through so much trauma, his body will adjust in a few days now that he has meds and the surgery is over with. So glad all went well. Was thinking of you and Rusty all night!! Will be checking for another update this afternoon. Hang in there!!! Sending tons of for Rusty.

Seriously Angela, I started bawling when I saw these pictures. Good tears though. These past few days with Rusty have brought back a lot of memories for me. Seeing these pictures, I know he is going to be okay.

That is such a wonderful thing for the hospital to do. Wow to the care they show their patients and their hoomans!!

Rusty looks amazing for all he has been through.

Same here! I'm at work and trying not to boo-hoo all over, but it made me really teary. How wonderful of them!

When Bogart was down, I used one of my Diane's Dream fleece pads on bottom of his crate with a pee pad in between and another Diane's Dream pad on top. That way if he couldn't wait for me to get home at lunch, he would just wet the top one and it would go thru and the pee pad would catch it. At his age, Bogart couldn't wait very long so I did LOTS of laundry. But putting the pee pad under the top pad cut it in half.

That's a great idea about making them stand to eat. I think I did that with Amanda after her surgery. I do remember sitting on the floor watching tv and making her stand up for a few minutes at a time to start strengthening the muscles in her hind quarters.

And that's why I ask questions. I seriously didn't think about that, his scar and belly bands!

They sent me more photos :-)

He is getting his incision iced and he started to fall asleep

[lucerogina]

My goodness he is handsome. I am so proud of him. He looks like a good little patient.
Sending hugs for you mama. Your baby will be home and in your arms again soon.
