greytpups Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Best birthday present ever! Quote Jan with precious pups Emmy (Stormin J Flag) and Simon (Nitro Si) and Abbey Field. Missing my angels: Bailey Buffetbobleclair 11/11/98-17/12/09; Ben Task Rapid Wave 5/5/02-2/11/15; Brooke Glo's Destroyer 7/09/06-21/06/16 and Katie Crazykatiebug 12/11/06 -21/08/21. My blog about grief The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not get over the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same, nor would you want to. ― Elisabeth Kübler-Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
galgrey Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Great news and the perfect birthday present for him!

And every new dog who comes into my life, gifts me with a piece of their heart. If I live long enough, all the components of my heart will be dog, and I will become as generous and loving as they are." -- Unknown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest IrskasMom Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Is there another Greyt Update on Desi ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DesiRayMom Posted November 1, 2014 Author Share Posted November 1, 2014 Sat.evening......we both slept like the dead last night. He managed up & down the block a little way, enough to get his business done without giving out. I took the sling with me, but he wanted to do it hisownself. He's still awfully wobbly, and the ankle is still swollen, but he sure enjoyed being out in the cold crisp air, and I had to make him come back in. My brother came up & we worked on his ramp, filed off rough edges, tightened bolts, cut up an outside mat & used double side tape to stick it on. It looks awesome, going to have to take pics of it set up....looks totally professional (no thanks to me). I'm still worrying about that spot in his lumbar region, but if today is any indication, I've got some time now. Thank you all for caring. I just lost Skeeter in June, and this past week without Des at home just about put me over the edge. I can deal with wobbly. Now if my house would just self-clean, I'd be just fine. Quote Blessed is the person who has earned the love of an old dog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
