Day 14- 1/31/13
This is how Bubs has been:
Very comfortable, and acting much like her usual self. There was a day in there where she literally slept ALL. DAY. LONG.
Since getting her off the pain meds, finishing her antibiotics, and getting the stubborn mule to eat her regular kibble, she has been doing so much better. She hasn’t been crying as much, but more so complaining, and as a matter of fact, she hasn’t complained since yesterday. She’s been getting up and off the sofa without an issue. Slowly she’ll get both front paws on the sofa, lean as far forward as possible, lift her remaining leg, hook it on the edge, and up!
Tonight she even played a little while with her brother and sister.
This has been the first time in a good while that Bubs got up, and showed some enthusiasm. Tomorrow her staples come out, which I’m going to try and document- I’m not sure if we will be waiting out in the lobby, or let to witness it. Either way, I’ll photograph her incision newly staple free and blog a bit about how that all went. I am so excited with her liveliness today. I finally feel like she is learning to live as a tripawd, and that she knows now that she is alright.
A bit later into the night, she decided to teach that darn leopard print quadruped a lesson…
I think she decided that if she’d ever play with this brute again, he’d have to look just like her. Lenny the Leopard print Wiener is now a tripawd too!
Bubs seems pretty satisfied don’t you think? Yay for our two week ampuversary today, yay for feeling better, and yay for showing us we still have our Bubs and she is doing great!

Awesome! Happy two weeks, Queen Bubbles! Glad to know that the personality is returning and she is feeling better. If she’s complaining and grumbling still, ask the vet about it tomorrow. Make sure her royal highness is doing ok. And stubborn? You’re kidding, right? Not Bubbles!
