Sorry for the delay in posting pictures. I wonder how doggies are doing when people suddenly stop posting, especially with giant pups, but all is well.
I got spayed a few weeks ago and things have been in disarray. That five-pound lifting limit was the worst because it meant no leash training for our Zita for weeks. She is slowly remembering how to walk at my side, but it took three snaps with a borrowed choke chain to get her started.
For my "being brave in the hospital treat" I got a digital camera. Here is a picture of Zita asleep on her bed. The mattress is now on the floor since she kept rolling over and slipping off.
