Month: November 2009

Since everyone seems to enjoy Maddie’s header photo, I thought I would include the whole photo. Sometimes it makes me sad to look at it, but once she is recovered and her hair grows back, she will be as beautiful as ever!

This photo was taken on the morning of her surgery…I took her and her best friend Lillie on a walk in the vineyard as we often do. I knew it would be hard for her, since she wasn’t using her leg much by now…but it didn’t slow her down! She was so excited to go and certainly overdid it, but I figured it really wouldn’t matter. The photo shows how happy she was! She was definitely tired by the time she got to the vets…and I was really feeling bad, but she just laid on the floor (which she never does) and I knew it was time.

Maddie had her surgery on Thursday, November 19th and I picked her up on Friday. Even after reading tons of things on tripawds, I didn’t expect her to walk out to me at the vet’s office! She was so happy to see me and dragged me to the car like her old self. She even wanted to jump in!
