Charlies_Dad Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 My big beautiful fawn boy is back home finally. Right now he just roached! He seems very happy to be home and is already storming the kitchen whenever we go in there so we are staying out for a while. He gave a few growls to Jack as we came home letting him know to leave him be. We made sure to keep them apart as you never know how dogs react in this type of situation. The ride home was a breeze (1hr ride) and he laid down most of the way and he enjoyed his time sticking his head out of both sides of the truck. The vet said he is healing well and the bruising is going down. Overall he was quite impressed with his strength, appetite and his ability to move around. Charlie is much more himself than when we saw him on Sunday so we are glad they kept him the extra day. The patch is to come off tomorrow and we will take care of that. Hopefully tonight will be non eventful. So here are some pics of Charlie resting: And for the non squeamish, his amp: Quote Kyle with Stewie ('Super C Ledoux, Super C Sampson x Sing It Blondie) and forever missing my three angels, Jack ('Roy Jack', Greys Flambeau x Miss Cobblepot) and Charlie ('CTR Midas Touch', Leo's Midas x Hallo Argentina) and Shelby ('Shari's Hooty', Flying Viper x Shari Carusi) running free across the bridge.

MP_the4pack Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 He looks fabulous! Happy. Just be careful because he's going to start tooling around without you, and it'll scare the bejusus out of you when you can't catch him.
