Hey everyone!! First let me say Happy Thanksgiving! i can't believe it's already Thanksgiving, where in heaven's name did the time go?? I feel bad cause i've just been posting on other peoples posts here and there when i get a chance. but i have today off, yah! so i figured first thing on my list would be to address my BPO absence.
Fumble's doing goood.... he's got his typical newfness, where he's listening about 90% of the time! lol! but that's a 2 year old! he's such a goof ball though, i was wondering if anyone else's dogs do this. he likes to carry my keys in his mouth during his walks. I have a huge bone that i have his waste bags in and he loves to just job along with it in his mouth!
Update on his health... left knee seems to have healed well, he's back to himself. now i just feel like i'm "watching" the right knee and waiting. he's on lots of gluc/chondr, so maybe we can prolong the onset of the right knee tear... but now i go onto his tummy! The big neuter is scheduled for the 11/30, and i was worried about still being on the fence about doing the gastropexy... but it was really random, i got the newfie catalog with newfie products and in it was a romance/chick lit novel that had a newfie in it. so i had to read it! i first started it, and oddly enough the owner was a twin! weird!?! i'm a twin! lol! so i just kept reading on, and now i'm getting to the end of the story. and last night when i was reading, the newfie had to have an emergency gastropexy! i said, okay, i never even heard about gastropexy before the vet told me (i only knew of bloat), so that's my sign, that it's okay to get it done! Unfortunately the vet i go to has to do it the old way, not laproscopicall y, so it's going to mean a big belly scar, but if it it means i'm taking extra precautions for my very fumbling fumble then so be it!
Stacy and i are going to try to take his holiday picture today, so i'm sure that there will be LTOS of outtakes! i'll post them for you all to have a laugh! Have a great thanksgiving everyone!!
