I live in beautiful South Carolina with my 9 furbabies. Yes 9. I have 2 cats, a ferret, 3 rats, and 3 amazing dogs. An Australian Shepherd named Domino who had his front leg amputated after a car accident, a 14yr old border collie mix, and a 5 year old Anatolian Shepherd.
Hopefully these work! This is Domino playing ball this morning and having a blast. He’s getting much better at catching it! https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=10152432389634765&l=3380517966988590940 https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=10152432388469765&l=9143721026084238184
No, it’s not Superman, it’s the amazing Domino! I desperately need to get a video of him playing now. We bought him a Toy’s R Us brand tennis ball shooter from Petsmart and he LOVES it! He’ll chase a ball for a good 20 minutes straight until he can barely stand. His confidence is definitely […]
It’s incredibly hard to believe that one month ago on May 13th that I was just bringing Domino home the evening of his surgery. It was a long sleepless night, but it was worth every second. If you told me that night that he would be where he is today I doubt I would have […]
Wow. It’s been 3 weeks since Domino’s surgery. He’s doing amazing, I couldn’t have asked for better. He gets his stitches out from his neuter this weekend. Which is good, because he is in desperate need of a bath! As far as adjusting, it’s been wonderful. His adjustment to the amputation is great. He’s getting […]
Domino is now 11 days after surgery and doing amazing! He’s still right on track with his recovery and we’re slowly increasing his activity which he is very happy for. The video is him today finally getting in some exercise. We went outside for a couple of minutes and I tossed his rope toy once […]
Not much to post today, but we are now 9 days post amputation. Domino is still right on course with recovery. I’m taking his staples out tonight after I get home and taking him in tomorrow for some more laser therapy. He still wants to run so bad, and my big boy Finn and him […]
8 days post op. Man it’s flying by! We’re at a frustrating part of recovery. Domino feels great, and thinks he can do anything!! He wants to run so bad. Yesterday when I took him out to potty we went into our fenced in yard and I let him off leash like I always do […]
Today marks 1 week after amputation for Domino! And the first week has gone much better than I expected. Dom had his recheck yesterday just to make sure everything was healing well. And he got a thumbs up from his vet. The only thing about the incision he didn’t like was a “dog ear” at […]
Hi everyone! It has been 6 days since Domino’s amputation. Our weekend went very well. Domino is bonding with us and his new “pack” like a champ. He still wants to be by my side alot, but it seems to be getting better. His panting and nerves seem to be getting better as well. He’s […]
So, Domino has been home with us since Thursday night. He is now 4 days post amputation and doing amazing! He still has his bandage on due to some slight swelling on the bottom of his incision, but it should come off tomorrow. He’s still getting along great with my other two dogs. We haven’t […]
