Rosie needed a day out so we headed to the beach. We went to Malibu Cliff Park first and it was too windy so we went to Point Dume beach!

It was drizzling all day so Rosie was very bundled up and sleepy today…She is such a little character 🙂 We visited Dr. Lupo for a bandage change and her little ankle is healing but it is taking forever! We are all getting impatient! However…one of Rosie’s FB friends is sending her some bandages that are especially designed for this […]

Saturday’s doctor visit – no sign of infection and she is still healing, just really slowly. She had laser therapy on her ankle and a bandage change. Because the weather was warm today, she wore her “Major League Cutie” dress, which is long and covers her little butt very nicely. Notice the new bandage – the color matches, and her […]

Wed 2/27/2013 update: Rosie had a bandage change and laser treatment today. She is still healing and it is still going very slowly but the tissue is healthy and granulating as it should be so we are going to let her body do its thing. Her weight is a constant battle and last week she was down to 3.2 pounds […]

Rosie went for a bandage change. Her ankle continues to heal but to quote Dr. Lupo it’s healing “millimeter by millimeter” so this is going to take some time. She is so bored being kept immobile; however, she is quite happy that I’m home with her. To brighten up her day I let her open a birthday/Valentine’s present from some […]

As you can imagine, I’ve been pretty worried all weekend so I am happy to report that Dr. Lupo found no sign of infection when he changed her bandage today!!! She did tear a stitch but that section is healing and the tissue is healthy. She had a laser therapy session and will remain on antibiotics. Although she is healing, […]

We saw the Doc today and her stitches are still holding and the skin is healing but the site is a bit inflamed which has us all concerned. She has to remain on the Clavamox for at least another week and will need to go back Mon or Tues for another check up. Rosie is a challenge…We had a very […]

Today is Rosie’s Birthday – 3yrs. old!!! Unfortunately, we are putting off her birthday party until her ankle is healed…in the meantime…she wants to be your Valentine!

Good news! All of the prayers and good wishes are working. When Dr. Lupo took off the bandage today, he was happily surprised to find that the stitches are holding and the skin is scabbing over as it should. She had another laser treatment and is sporting a new bandage. This one is like the last one – it encompasses […]

We are home from the vet. Dr. Lupo was able to keep her still enough using a local anesthetic to pull some skin over her ankle and stitch the area closed. BUT because that is one of the few moving joints in her leg, it has to stay immobile if it is going to work. As you can see she […]
