| I am SO SORRY about Shelby!!! Seriously, I completely agree with Brooke- DO NOT EVER hesitate to post anything that is a problem just because other people are going through similar things. I would MUCH rather hear about possible problems and be able to support others who have so much supported myself and my boys. I don't remember when Shelby had her surgery, or what grade her LP was. One thing to consider- when we were talking with the surgeon before we scheduled surgery, one of the things that solidified our decision was when he said the longer the LP goes on, the more chance for ligament damage. Could the ACL have possibly been damaged before surgery, and is now causing problems? I am PRAYING that rest will heal this. No baby should have to go through a surgery like this more than once. Please, please, please keep us updated on Shelby.

| Thanks to all that are sending us good thoughts!!!....... We appreciate each and everyone of you!!! Shelby is still being jailed, and carried around like a football. I am starting to think that she is enjoying all the extra attention. I wasn't able to talk to our PT today. She had an emergency and so I will wait until tomorrow.

Tatum is doing great today! She went out to potty and is still using her left leg (just not when picking up speed...when she does that, she still "hops" and holds the left leg up off the ground). I am just so proud of her though. It just amazes me how well she has done throughout this whole thing. I had high hopes for her, but I honestly didn't expect her to be doing THIS good so fast! That little girl really shocks me sometimes! I just still can't believe poor little Shelby That sweetheart has been though way too much over the last year and she doesn't deserve this one bit! Of course, no baby deserves it....but poor Shelby?? I just feel so completely awful for her That really is great news though that she is still so upbeat! Glad to hear that she is eating and drinking well and is pooping too - alright SHELBY! Way to go! I bet she really does want to play with her brother...Tatum would love to play with Steddy too (and Steddy is just ITCHING to play with her!) but it's Yorkie Jail for a long time to come still I keep counting down the days! Give Shelby a little hug and kiss for me...I just love that sweetheart!

She tried to thump Seymour after breakfast (one of her favorite games). OF couse, she was scooped up immediately and put back in puppy jail. I swear, she is worse than a juvenile delinquent!! I guess she will start having her meals in jail, too!!! Have a wonderful Easter everyone!

| I was checking in for an update on Miss Shelby. I'm sorry to hear she's still favoring her leg. Have you been able to talk to the PT yet?

I am so sorry that Shelby and you are going thru this. It's not fair. She's been thru so much already. I hope that she will not need surgery. I've no experience with this. I read some posting that their dog didn't need the surgery after all, I will keep my fingers crossed that Shelby will indeed be one of them too. Maybe she just needs to rest a bit and just keep of the leg for awhile. I'll keep her and you in my thoughts and prayers. And if you or Brooke ever find that credit card without the bill....Share, Share!

| Update... I believe this can be called "good news"!!! I got thru to Shelb's Physical therapist today and also talked to her orthopedic vet/surgeon. He agrees that it will be great for Shelby to go thru some PT for a few weeks. This will hopefully help in her healing. She will start next week Thursday. (so 10 days from now). Shelby will be getting e-stim therapy, ultrasound therapy, and laser therapy. I know she will be so excited to see her friend again at the rehab center....... Shelby LOVED getting the Ultrasound therapy..... she would relax and almost fall asleep!!! I am so excited for this to start..... and in the meantime, Shelby will continue to be the "jailed princess" that she is!

YT Graphic Artist Donating Member | Oh, I am so sorry! Poor Shelby just can't seem to get a break. I know what you are going through - having to keep them separated and Seymour wanting to play with her. Mine are so close that it breaks my heart when they can't play together. I'm sure she'll be running around with him in no time. Keep us updated!
