Deja-vu Dog

Remember this scene from January???
I do. All too well.
Surgery on both front paws. A cone for ten days. And four months of crate confinement.
During tax season.

Well here we are again.
Flopsy (the repeat offender) started favoring her back right leg a couple weeks ago. She would run and walk just fine (and jump up to the counter), but move stiffly after laying for a while.
And hold her back foot in the air while standing.

So today I took her back to see our favorite vet.
It seems she's injured the doggie version of her ACL.
Really??!
So she's back on drugs and restricted activity for the next 10-14 days in hopes that all will heal and she won't have to go back under the knife.

(Ted....this blog is for you. You know...since you started this trend & all...)
