Gypsy Belle is doing GREAT! Read what she has to say today!
Today I was ready to run and jump and play, just like the young dog I am. I’m recovering very quickly. Mom says thank goodness for sedatives! She’s afraid that I’ll do too much too soon and hurt myself since my back surgery last Saturday. I’m still wearing my cone collar at night so I don’t get too creative and pull out my staples from boredom. I got a stuffed kong to help me pass the time and soothing music to help me relax. It’s not too bad staying confined, but I would much rather be outdoors playing hard with my fellow dog buddies at the park. Hello to all my Dogster pals and thank for your encouragement!
