Friday is the day
Just to let you all know Keiko goes in on Friday for her surgery. She will obviously have to stay overnight and we'll collect her on Saturday. We are nervous and scared and just wish it was all over.
I can't stand the thought of her being in pain. You wouldn't know there is anything wrong with her at the moment and I'm sure she doesn't think there is anything wrong because she's on medication, she's not even limping.
The vet tells me that once they've done one acl it is not uncommon for them to do the other one at some stage......
Poor WG is going to be so devastated losing his playmate for such a long time, um I wonder if we should get another chowling to keep him company while Keiko can't play.....
Thank you all for your good wishes and prayers. Please send a few more to Missy Keiko.
I've posted a couple of photos of them in the photo section.

Little Miss Keiko will be up and at 'em in no time. It's her poor mommy we'll be worried about.
We'll be sending purple kisses and positive thoughts across the miles.

I wish Keiko all the best. I think she will do well...now her mom and dad...I'm not sure! Seriously, you have a lot of faith in your vet, things will go well. WG will be o.k. He managed alright before Keiko came along, now, didn't he??

Maybe you can send Butters over for a holiday to play with Wilbur and then I can have fuzzy hugs from him in person

Re: Friday is the day
Keeping positive... I know of 2 older dogs (10+) that have had the surgery within the last year and it worked out great. Angel (not mine) an ex-co worker of mine's dog (i think she was a golden) had the surgery about a year ago exactly and is doing GREAT! And another friend of mine, her dog Arnold had it and he still limps a bit... but nothing like before and he is happy as can be
My thoughts will be with you & Keiko

Re: Friday is the day
I will be keeping Keiko and her family in my thoughts and prayers. She'll be fine I'm sure. And Wilbur will be busy trying to help you take care of her, they know when a pack mate isn't feeling well.

Re: Friday is the day
Oh baby girl, I do hope you get better soon, and Sabina please dont worry to much, she will be up and about before you can say Jack Robertson, quite a few of my chows had to have this done over the years, and one even went on to becoming a champion, I know she will be fine, give her a big kiss from me,

Hugs to Keiko. I have Hannah packed and ready to go. She will be more than happy to be Wilbur's playmate until Keiko is better.
