Home, And Dog Tired

Well, the surgery is successful, and other than the 8-inch incision in her belly, Ol' Dottie seems to be fine.  A little drugged up, but who wouldn't be?  She gets the sutures out in a couple of weeks, which, by my calendar, means she ought to be ready (although a bit out of shape) for the Kansas chicken opener.  I'll say this much -- it's nice knowing she'll at least go on the trip.

Of course, we are still on pins and needles waiting for the biopsy to come back, but we can all breathe a bit easier knowing we did what we could to get to the most pressing problem.

Thanks to all of you for your comments, emails, phone calls, and silent prayers.  They mean more to me and my family than words can describe.  We'll keep you posted.

  1. This is some good news, Scamp + Dottie! Hopefully the biopsy will come back negative and these are just old dog bumps'n'lumps.
