surgery today

[Gracie2006]

I'm so glad Rex is home and doing well in your loving care. I can feel for you. Gracie was just diagnosed today and I'm already worried sick. I do hope little Rex stops hurting and starts healing soon. We will be thinking of him and sending him well wishes. Please keep us posted.

Glad to hear Rex doing well, both my yorkie and poodle going in for surgery on both back legs for patellas tommorrow. I am truly dreading this, but am encouraged by your report. Hug that little fella for Charlie and Bosley!

WOW - I can't believe I missed this thread

Anne,
I am glad to hear your baby is home and he is healing. You'll see, as the weeks go by he will get better and better

Looking forward to some updates and to see you at a Yorkie Meetup soon

Hi everyone:
Rex's surgery was a week ago today. His incision looks great-it is nearly healed, and he does not seem to be uncomfortable at all. He sleeps closer to me than ever! He has yet to put any weight on the surgery leg so of course I am concerned but the vet said this is typical of small dogs. Nicole, thank you again for all your advice-I am wondering if you did any type of physical therapy exercises after surgery.
The xpen in my kitchen saved me-I went to a baby store and bought waterproof crib sheets for the floor "just in case" he got mad for being confined, (no accidents, yet, anyway). Nicole, I believe I owe you thanks for the xpen suggestion. It has saved me.
Shadream, try not to be scared-I know just how you feel and the worst part, I think, for us is just before-try and focus on picking them up! You will be in our thoughts tonight and please let us know everything goes tomorrow.
Rex has a "check up" Friday and I hope to know more then.

Thank you so much for words of encouragement, I will try to post tommorrow nite and let u know, I know this is for the best and I will be glad when they are healed and so much better, its just getting thru it I guess, sleep doesn't want to come easily tonite, I know you understand. I too plan to use an xpen in my kitchen. I think that will be best.
God bless.

That is such good news about Rex, and it sounds like his recovery is successful.
