While we are not all about Shep, we are Shep heavy today.
The man has been home all week being watched and tended to more than normal. Almost 24/7. The man is a champ and adapting fairly well, though we were thrown a slight complication.
If we are still on track, and I think we are, he should be out of the cone and have his sutures out this upcoming Monday.
Shep gives good side-eye when he's begging at the table.
But he still gets a pup cup because he's a good boy.
Yeah - we see you there!
Injured or not, he still expects car rides on weekends.
We have to use 710's car. Rear doors do not accommodate his cone.
He looks surprised
The setback: Shep either undid some sutures on his back leg, or they came undone during normal movement. He had to have them stapled, with a protective covering.
And the covering needs a covering when we go out - as he's not allowed to get it wet, which is not easy in the middle of winter.
....and I spend most of my day with him, including nap time. Just to make sure he's ok.
The great news is: the bump on his leg was not precancerous. The one on his hip was, but they got everything. So that is a big relief.

Always lovely to see your two home 'entertainers' - but poor, poor Shep. How I hate to see him (or any animal) in discomfort, while appreciating that it's all for his best. Simon must be as perplexed at Shep's new 'fashion' as much as the wearer himself is.
That driveway pic of Shep is priceless , Simon’s come hither and peek a boo are special too.
Love on a Saturday morning
Always good to see your handsome boys. Shep is a champ.
