Square Dog Friday, lots of not so good news


You have seen iwinston's leg before

.
iwinston leg is no gud it's beein'bad bad bad 
oh woe is me 

As it stands today, one of his leg bone has grown but the other has not.
He has folded his ankle over and is walking on his knuckles

 We are waiting for the results of iwinston's CT Scans
It was really rough on him. It took him two days to recover.
When I talked to the assistant about Winston how much of a tank he is
just running his way over any problem. She laughed and said that
these tough as nails gud dugs sometimes have a longer recovery time
from the anesthetic. That is so Winston.

 
Pretty pretty princess
We adore her.



 iwinston is needing cuddles and naps not feelin' so happy



. . . . .

 Yes ! it is that time again ! You say summer we say wildfire season.
We have 10 active wildfires in Arizona at this time.


.

I live right by the Loews so one fire was about a hour from me.
 .
The fire on Mt. Lemon


Several wildfires in Arizona all burning at the same time.



. . . . 

As always here is your pretty or funny for the start of the weekend.
Some smiles for today.







Be safe, be strong and be well.

Birthday !


Today, 1 June is my Mother's Birthday.
Son and Daughter came with me to wish her a Happy Birthday.
I know she is not there but I like to talk to her.  The tree by her gave has grown 
so big and has shade, with lots of wildlife that comes to visit.


Daughter comes over twice a week and we sit and draw before it gets so hot.
I haven't drawn except for the Christmas Cards, for years so this is very
lovely for me.

 Catalina Mountains from my backyard,

.
 PaloVerde Tree from my kitchen window in full bloom.

Agatha was napping in the pillow and iwinston just cuddled in.
Reminds me of thehamish who always found Watson and would cuddle in. 
Watson was thehamish's touchstone. He adored him. Watson was a old soul.

....
Here is your pretty to start the week.


Stay safe and be well.

Square Dog Friday, Now it is Sir Winston's turn


Sir Winston Mandables Churchill
It is so hard to take a photo of a small leg on a small black gud dug.
Can you see the bulge on his leg ? The bone causes a fold before his paw.
It causes him to throw his paw and leg  out to the right and is painful.
Right now he gets a injection into his elbow every week.

 For the last two weeks we have been in and out of Vet's office.
We are now going to a specialist orthopedic surgeon.

When he stands he tries to rest it. It has been getting worst, so off to the 
new specialist. Options so far are leave it be with pain pills, brace or amputation.
We will be trying water therapy also.



Right leg out weight on left leg in the back.

.
My little sweetheart.
You wouldn't know he is pain (I do ) he still plays but for a shorter time
rests more and will cuddle more.
I Love Him.







 Now some gud dug Agatha photos.
