Rottweiler Discussions / Tealk the orthopedic disaster
« on: February 22, 2006, 07:42:02 pm »
He is our baby and we love him to pieces. I see us going to the poor house though. We got the other xray study results. They determine both his hips are bad. On the one that is only 10% in the socket, he will need a comlete hip replacement. On the other hip he will need a TPO. Well last week he was playing in the snow and slipped on the back stairs and chipped hs right front elbow. He goes in for surgery on March 7th to fix his elbow so he will be able to walk on his front legs when they decide to do the other surgeries. I hate that he will have to go through all this, but he has the sweetest personality and hopefully after he is fixed he will stay that way.
We met his parents when we got him and they both seemed in good health, No limping, runnning around, no problem.
I guess it was the luck of the draw as who knows what would have became of him if we didn't get him.
All donations accepted LOL

Rottweiler Discussions / Tealk needs hip surgery
« on: January 24, 2006, 01:31:30 pm »
I took him in to get him neutered last week. I had noticed after he played for awhile he would limp on his left hind leg. I asked the vet to check out his leg and take an xray since he was going to be sedated anyway. Well, the xray looked like his femur was out. So She sent me to a local vet who was good with orthopedics. He said the femur was only in the socket 10%. He said I had 2 options either an FHO or Hip surgery, and Tealk was really too large for an FHO. So now I am trying to get an appointment with The University of Tn Vet Hospital as they are the only ones who do that kind of surgery around here. I guess its time to max out the credit cards. My poor little big boy, I hate that he will have to go through all that. I hope everything turns out OK. I'm a nerveous wreck

Games & Jokes / Sober Santa ?
« on: November 23, 2005, 02:52:43 pm »
Read directions below. The idea is to position Santa behind the glass of wine. As he drinks each glass, another one appears, and you need to get him behind that one. BUT, he is getting very wobbly, so it's not easy. And then there is the train as well, and the lines. OOOOOOOPS!!
YOU NEED THE SOUND ON....USE UP, DOWN AND SIDEWAYS KEYS
(YOU MAY NEED TO PRESS ON EACH FOR A FEW SECONDS BEFORE SANTA RESPONDS).
IF YOU POSITION SANTA BEHIND A GLASS OF WINE IT, IMMEDIATELY EMPTIES
BUT WATCH OUT FOR THE TRAIN!
WARNING: ADDICTIVE !

Rottweiler Pictures / How big will he get?
« on: November 05, 2005, 02:59:35 pm »
Tealk is 5 months old now. He weighs 47 lbs and is 18 inches tall. Does anyone know of a way to calculate how large he will get?
He is a character. In the first pic he is sitting by the garbage with all the empty bottles. He thinks this is his toybox. He helps himself to the empties as they make great playthings.

We were on vacation for 10 days. When we got back Tealk had grown and grown. I,m glad I'm back. I missed the furkids. I needed a hair and drool fix.
We were in Kissimee FL. Wilma was about 200 miles south of us but she still had a good storm going. We went to Disney Animal Kingdom, Cape Canaveral and Lake Louisa State Park. This is Tealks latest pic.
