Izzy’s last day as a quad

and she is as lazy as ever!

We took a little time with just Izzy and went house hunting in the mountains. As happy as I was to see Izzy having a great day with barely any limp, I found myself thinking, wishful thinking I know, that the dr was wrong and she just has a bone bruise. It was so wonderful to see her exploring even though I had to keep her on the leash to make sure she didn’t wander into any holes. Then we stopped my my oldest daughters house for a visit and Izzy got to play with the grandkids before we headed back into town.

Yesterday was another almost no limp day and she followed me from room to room as I tried to clean and get things ready for her post surgery.

today her new harness arrived and I’m sad again. I know this is my emotion and not hers, she is fine and will be fine. So, I’m trying my best to feel my emotions and not project them on to her. This feeling sucks but it is part of living and and loving someone else. Izzy is literally surrounded by her pack right now. They are all laying around her in a circle. I am going to call and ask the vet is I should give her a bath today before the surgery since it will be easier on her now rather than later. She really hates baths but she gets to lick peanut butter off the wall while she’s being washed so that makes it a tiny bit better for her.
