Woody is poorly. He has suspected diseased cruciate ligaments on the right hind leg and is going to hydrotherapy on Tuesday to prepare him for surgery in a few weeks and to get him use to it for when he has had the surgery and will need hydro and physio to recover. He is also on medication and will be for the rest of his life. Poor old Woody. It doesn’t seem to bother him too much apart from the shaved patches and a little bit of a limp (that dissappears when he sees another dog) he is doing ok and he absolutely loves going to the vets all that attention and so many people to meet.
We went out to the London Bar last night yet again it was a very nice night as usual. Today we have been camera shopping with Matthew and visited Andrea, Andy and Amy who had bought some fireworks for a family display. We didn’t buy any - I don’t like fireworks. We took Woody out and the fireworks were very pretty but very loud - I was very scared so went home. Woody didn’t seem to mind!
I feel as though I have neglected to show how lovely our cats are. I also appreciate just how soft, gentle and calm cats are since we have had Woody. They use to drive me mad with all their hair everywhere….I have given up caring that the house is in a mess since we got woody! Here are a few pics of Forest and Baloo:
Today has been a really idyllic day…Woody has been exceptionally well behaved and he is everything I could have wanted in my years of wanting a dog. We have been to the beach today - unfortunately no camera today but there are a few pics of when we have been to the beach before with him.
Finding it very tiring working 13 hour shifts to come home to a very lively dog. I think Gav is finding it just as tiring having to look after Woody while I am away! My placement is really good but it is really hard getting back into it after such a long time off from shift work…my feet at the end of the day hurt so much! I really can’t complain as Gavin is doing a wonderful job looking after Woody, and Woody is adorable.
