The worst
Well, today was a bad day. A follow-up visit to our veterinarian, Dr. Jeff, has brought sad news. Dexter has a small tear in his ACL. He's had a limp, and we tried some anti-inflammatories to see if it was something less serious. After a month of medication, it seems no better, and in fact a bit worse. We have 3 weeks before the surgeon comes back to town. The surgery is to support that part of Dex's leg with a sort of metal rod type thing. The good news, according to Dr. Jeff, is that we may have caught it soon enough that no damage has happened to the other leg as a result of Dex favoring sore leg #1. The bad news is it takes about 6 months to recuperate. My poor little guy. No running or playing or even walking for a long time. I wish I could make him understand that it has to happen to make him better. Meanwhile, what the heck am I going to do with a bored dog, cooped up in the house for 6 months??? Maybe I can teach him to knit. Or play chess.

OMG this makes me so so sad. :( I wish I could give him a big 'ole hug right now.
Not to mention, I know a 12 yr. old that would LOVE to keep a bored brown doggy company for hours on end.
Yeah, it's pretty horrible to think about. Dex has two mighty fine moderately stuffed animals he still loves dearly, to keep him company. The bear he drags out to show everyone. The big dog he thinks is real, and he shares things with. Sometimes he barks at it to make it get up and play, then I have to do the marionette thing with a giant stuffed dog, voices and all. Fairly humiliating, should anyone happen to see it.
But I wish you guys were here to cheer us both up.
