Yorkie Talker | thanks Thank you all so much for the prayers. I could not be more relieved. Surgery went very well and Bentley did wonderful! He has 2 pins in his elbow and has a long recovery ahead. He is not allowed to walk at all for the first week and after that he will on very strict weight bearing precautions. This is going to be ridiculously hard because he goes EVERYWHERE with me & is my little shadow. Now he will be confined to the crate way more than he used to and I will have to carry him everywhere. He can only stand to go potty and to get comfy in his crate... These next few months are going to be pretty interesting. I will definitely be asking y'all some questions on how to keep him entertained while recovering Here is a pic of my little baby with his giraffe print vetwrap He is exhausted and the pain pills are keeping him pretty knocked. Thanks again y'all! |

Aww poor Bentley!! Hes so tired! Im so glad it went well. I cant imagine how tough the next few months will be. My 8 month old got spayed and I struggled keeping her still. Hes a puppy so that will be tough. Just keep him entertained as much as you can

| Poor baby boy. He looks so sweet and adorable. I've never had to experience something like this, but others here have gotten their pups a stroller. You can keep him confined in it, but still roll it so that he can be there with you. I know it's such a long time, but it's a blip in Bentley's life. No doubt this make your loving bond with him even closer than before. I hope Bentley is soon free from pain and that his recovery goes well.

Your next project is to "fence and cross fence" your house, making SURE that your baby can NOT ever dart out a door again....thank God he didnt end up in the street or in a neighbors drive way as they were backing out. I have every door that leads to the outside front yard, protected by baby gates...my babies would have to get thru 3 baby gates, from any direction in the house they try, in order to get access to the front door and front yard dangers. It sure ruins the "Southern Living" look of my home, but it is necessary. | |

| Feel free to pm me. I had Jess break her leg and managed to get us all through it with success. It passes quicker than you think but it is a long process.. |

| I'm glad to hear that everything went well with his surgery... I'm sure it's going to be hard to keep him contained and to not overexert himself. We fenced our front yard to prevent things like this. The gate to the front yard has a spring on it, so it closes by itself. I would invest in some walk through baby gates, so they are up all the time.

Paris: Always in my ♥ Donating YT Member | Maybe a baby sling to carry him around in so he feels close to you? would that work with his little cast? |
