Checking In

Bella here…

Mom took my bandages off today and I feel so much better.  She ordered me a new chest protector, a nice harness with padding on the underside so I don’t irritate my chest when I plop on the floor.  Life is good!  Yesterday was a beautiful day here in Colorado I got to lay out in my backyard and chew on a bone all by myself.  Mom kept an eye on my from the window but I showed her I was just fine.  I even took up my “perch”, the step off the deck, and barked at a few of my neighborhood dog friends.  We don’t have many steps but the few we have I am learning to master.  Oh, I got back my second CBC results last week, everything looks good.  The doc said I was still slightly anemic but even that came up 0.5 and he said I was making new RBCs so he was happy with what he was seeing.  I’m going to keep working on that for the next time the doc takes my blood.  Ah-oh gotta go, dad is eating eggs now and he always gives us the left over yolk.  I don’t want to miss that!

Hops, wags and licks to all.  Oh, here’s a couple of pics one of us camping over Labor Day and the other just a typical day after a bone…

 

Love my bones!

  1. Bella you are so cuuuuuute! I’m so glad to read another hoppy update.

    Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for becoming a supporter, it means so much and really helps.

    We would love to meet you at some point. We are in Red Feather Lakes (have I told you that? I can’t recall) and are often in Fort Collins. If you’re ever in the area, and when the waters subside, we should meet up!

  2. BELLA!! OMD! That poto of you “licking your chops is priceless! Hysterical! Thank you so much for making us all smile today!

    Love how you’re resting with your cute buddy after a hard day of bone chewing.

    Glad you’re feeling more and more like yourself. You are still early in recovery from major surgery so take it easy sweet Bella.

    Would LOVE to see more adorable photos! Making us all grin ear to ear all day long!

    Lots of hugs to all!

    Sally and Happy Hannah
