Maggie’s New Look

Maggie is coming along just fine.  She Eating great, taking her medicine and getting to go outdoors to do her business.  It’s only #1, but we will have to wait for number 2.  I have to carry her outside, because we have stairs to the back yard, but when she’s done she walks back into the house to eat and drink.  She then walks to the couch and jumps up to lay down to rest.  She climbs the stairs at night to sleep, just like she normal.  So everything is getting back to normal, but it takes her a little longer to walk and eat.   We put on a little t-shirt on her ( see pictures).  I love the St. Louis Cardinals t-shirt.

  1. A smile from a Goldenlightsupthe world!! Look at thar face! What a sweetie!

    I just saw your pics from your other blog too! This dog just melt my heart!! Such a gentle soul!

    Now yo takeit REA EASY gongup those stairs Miss Maggie! Many vets will tell you no stair clmbing or jumping on sofas until stitches are out! I’m glad that you feel that good though!! Sometimes elevating their food bowl helps a tripawd to eat a little easier too.

    Maggie, you look stunning in your Cardinal’s tee shirt! Red is your color!

    #2 takes a little while longer sometimes because of the surgery and meds. Sometmes a little organic pureed pumpkin helps (not the pie filer…just natural pumpkin)

    Looking forward to many more wonderful updates on Magnificent Maggie! And keep those photos comng…it beautifies our site!! She’s clearly in great hand with you guys!!

    Hugs to all!

    Sally and Happy Hannah
