Maggie update

Yay! Maggie is going to be just fine. She's only gotten her cone off once, during which time she performed her own minor surgery and removed her 6 inch drainage tube. Fortunately, she did that on the day the tube was supposed to come out anyway, so good times. The biggest challenge now is to keep her from running for the next week or so. That's right, we have to keep our greyhound from running. *sigh* It's an uphill battle. But she's back to her old self now, so we're pretty happy.

Note to concerned readers: The dog park where this incident occurred is not the same dog park where Maggie got threatened by a pit bull a couple months back. It turns out that bad dog owners are randomly spaced throughout the universe. Stupid people.

The day after the accident (you can see part of the ouchie behind her hind leg):



and today:

Okay, I don't have a picture. I do, but I'm in it and my teeth are all purple from our belated Valentine's Day dinner of pizza and wine (an '03 California cab sav called Dog House and an '04 SE Australian merlot from Rosemount)... we couldn't really go out on account of the dog. It was still nice.

I'm glad she's OK. I'll bet she'd be even MORE OK if you gave her some peanut butter ;)
