Carlos was unable to put weight on his left hind quarters this morning. Per our mobile vet, we took him to the Vet where they could do X-rays for a better evaluation. He has a torn ACL and a loose patella. Surgery sch dukes for Thursday and he will have to stay over night. My heart is just hurting to the guy as you can tell he is in pain. Got him some pain pills and hope that helps somewhat. Please send good thoughts.. And PS.. This is not a pretty vet bill.. But he is worth it. http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160906/7603f1555e69baf6c70035175e4b7e65.jpg

He jumps a lot - but has been a little weak in his jumps lately.. he must have injured it, and it finally tore sometime last night.

Thanks - I think he is adorable.

He has never even been to the vet.. we have a mobile vet that comes to our house. That was the first big step for us, the next will be leaving him overnight.


I'd spend anything to make him smile again.
Yep- I agree.. haven't had any major expenses with him since we rescued him 5 years ago. I just hope the recovery goes smoothly and he isn't in pain.

Painful to see him hobble around. I have to lift him up to the couch so he can sit by me.

Yep - that Look..that we fell in love with.

Thank you - I feel he is in the best hands. I thought I was done with this kind of worry after my kids left the nest .. Guess Not.

ahhh. Thank you.

I will be thinking of Carlos-los-los. Impressed that you guys got it all figured out so quickly. I imagine the next few days will be stressful, but once he gets through surgery he will be right as rain!!!

And I am unfortunately way too familiar with those exorbitant vet bills. But our babies are SO worth it!

I feel your hurt --my fur baby had eight teeth extracted 8 months ago and 4 more last month and I was a complete nervous wreck both times till she came out of surgery--and yes those vet bills were costly---I think I spent more $$ on her teeth than mine lol--but they're worth it. Sending Carlos (such a cutie) healing thoughts for a quick recovery--keep us updated.

My smile for the night.. When I look at that photo of Carlos with his bum shaved he looks like a little pig. Has slept most of the day.. Whimpers when we pick him up to carry him outside. Hops around on his good legs until he goes potty. Then back in to sleep. I hand fed him some food so he can take his pain meds. Hope he sleeps peacefully tonight.

Carlos just too cute and clever not to have tried SOMETHING, so if he stealth-climbed stairs and jumped on the bed that means he is feeling much much better - yep, can't take chances, into the kennel! Thanks for the good news lol..

It is funny .. But I am afraid the pain Meds make him feel better than he is.. And he is going to hurt himself. I work 14 miles from home.. But have been running home on my lunch hour to check on him. Yesterday he stayed out... Today he escaped.. I figured I would find him on the couch.. But not upstairs.. He is a difficult patient :)

When my Boston got fixed he kept trying to lick the stitches, but the collar didn't work. He managed to get around it. So I cut a tail hole in toddler shorts and pinned them on him. Worked like a charm. Except the morning I let him outside and forgot to take the shorts off, and he pooped in them!

The only way this could be cuter (it's adorable as is) I'd if you put silk shorts on him. Then he'd REALLY look like a boxer, HHH.
