Well we brought our big guy home today, what a good feeling that was. He was so happy to see me, he was wiggling like crazy. He is doing very well. He needs assistance getting to a standing position, so I am using a sheet under his belly to help lift him. Once standing he is getting around quite well, even putting a little weight on his operated side now and then. He is not whining or complaining, he is such a trooper...I'm so proud of him. He's eating and just enjoying all the love and attention. It looks like it's going to be quite the recovery tho, I'll keep you all posted.
