Well, it happens before you know it. Our kids grow up fast. And puppies even faster. Hard to believe our labradoodle puppy is 40 lbs and almost six months old. And so … drum roll here … all pet owners know what that means for a girl dog … more drums with a fatalistic sound … it’s time to get fixed. Yep, my puppy is having surgery today. 🙁 Hate that. I’m always nervous for my babies when they have to have anything done at the vet, but surgery is surgery. And our lab almost died 7 years ago when she was fixed (by a different vet). So anyway, please pray with me that Hilo will get through the surgery just fine and recover quickly.
The vet told me yesterday that we’ll have to keep her from jumping for a couple of weeks. Oh boy. This is the puppy that has springs on the bottom of her feet. She leaps tall buildings with a single bound. She has easily jumped onto my dining room table. So keeping her from jumping for 2 weeks … oh fun!
