Sky is home

Thanks for such supportive and useful comments.Much to some of my friends dismay..a”dog with three legs??” i brought my girl..SKY..home and she is amazing and blowing me away with her fight ..Sky is a Blue Heeler ..or Australian cattle dog . 8 .5 years old and i rescued her from the SPCA 7 years ago. She suffers with slight hip dysplacia but the worst leg has now gone…as with her pain…i hope. Shebroke her leg after playing with a pup and it was found she had cancer in the leg šŸ™ but the bright side is that shes had xrays , bloods and biopsies doneĀ and nothing found..but im realistic for the future.But right now she is doing well, getting losts of rest..cuddles when she wants them…she seems to act like nothing has really happened and bounding along well on three legs..im having to slow her down…i dont want the drugs to mask anything or make her feel better than what she is.. Yes, im from down under but in New Zealand, andĀ  a lovely warm part, so great for dogs to heal..not too much damp or cold to get into her bones.

Sky’s amputation done..home soon YAY

Welcome from down under! i am so lucky and blessed to have sky in my life and she has undergone her surgery after breaking her leg playing with a puppy.Should be back home soon and i am little aprehensive about what to do to make her comfortable but knowing sky she will know exactly what to do and leave me in her wake! luckily im an at home mum of two gentle caring boys (is there such a thing i hear!)who attend kindy)so we will be getting lots of quiet time.I am very pleased with my decision.as was the vet ..she is such a healthy happy dog and there was no cancer found in her bloods or in any other xrays! and luckily it was her bad dysplacia leg that has gone so a blessing in disguise! So here goes into a realistic but fantastic future !
