My pup went through a luxating patella surgery a few months ago and his leg is still not perfect, there's still a click but he is much better than he was before.

Back to Jack...he is such a soldier and he is so lucky to have a daddy like you. It is very kind of you not to accept donations. You and your family have such a big heart.

KUDOS to you and Jack!!

Again, the card is just wonderful!! The doc will truely appreciate it.

Wow, my head just exploded from getting all those compliments at one time. Thanks, thanks, thanks, thanks, thanks! Did I get them all? LOL.

Jack's surgery was a miracle. The vet told me in advance that he would probably need 6 months of physical therapy and warm baths to recover fully, but he was practically 100 percent at his 1-month checkup. The vet told me he didn't need physical therapy. And he hasn't favored the leg since.

I should knock on wood because it's just two wires holding his knee together!

Thanks again! Oh, and as much as I TRIED not to accept donations, sneaky YTers sent Jack a care package that included a check for $125. I accepted it on condition that he is now partly owned by all YTers!

Good luck on your pup's recovery!
