Get well gifts!

We got the coolest get well card and gifts from our budz Waylon and Willie and we wanted to share some pics with you. These gifts were here waiting until Ozzie got home from the hospital, and then until he quit bleeding (yuck!)...Anywayz, guyz if you are reading this we sure appreciate your thoughtfulness! These are the coolest blue squirrel and green loofa dog ever! You guyz all know how we feel about squirrels!.....grrrr. Oh, cmon Ozzie, I was just kidding...ha! ha! (Ozzie just loves to suck on toys, he is not a destroyer like me!)

Rocky

Hey there!

Mom wanted me to post a picture of myself so that all my friends can see that I am home and doing well. I hate this dumb cone on my head and I hate this diaper even more! I tried wearing the diaper on my head last night! Mom said she wished she'd had the camera to capture that moment! Thanks for all your prayers and concern. It sure is great having all my blog friends!

Ozzie's Home!!!

Just wanted all of our friends to know that the Ozz Man is home! I just picked him up from the vet's. He is secluded to the kitchen (and not too happy about that), but he is here. And you will have to take my word for it because the husband is out of town and has my camera with him. I won't be able to post any new pics until Monday. Sorry.
The vet said to bring him back in about a week to have stitches removed and to keep him on his antibiotic until he has finished it all. There is still more bleeding than I would like for there to be but I guess that is just part of it. He is wearing one of the little diapers but I have a little trouble keeping them pulled up. He is wearing a large cone on his head so he can't bite at them. I will keep you posted on how things are going. He is getting used to being back here and he and Rocky are getting reaquainted a little at a time.
More later,
Tammy

Oh Brother, Where Art Thou???

I am so depressed! My little brother was supposed to come home today and he is not here! I think I'm just going to stay in bed and sulk....

Poor Rocky. But poor Ozzie more. I went to pick him up this afternoon. They were going to release him to come home. When he came out to the lobby at the vet's office there were two other dogs there and he got to jumping around and started bleeding. There was quite a bit of blood so the vet said he was sorry but Mr. Ozzie would not be able to go home today. He said he wanted to keep him another day, or so... Hopefully tomorrow but I don't know for sure. Otherwise things are going fine for him. He just needs to get the bleeding under control. In the meantime I will be consoling Rocky (and myself).

Homecoming Delayed...

I spoke with the vet just now and he wants to keep Ozzie one more night. He says that everything is fine but that there is still a lot of bleeding. He feels like it would just be better to keep him until tomorrow afternoon. But everything is good and he will be back home with us tomorrow evening! I promise I will post pictures!

Another Ozzie Update

Just wanted everyone to know the vet called and said the surgery went well and that he was waking up. He is going to keep him over night. He said he ran some tests and all indications were that this should work. Of course we won't know for sure until Ozzie urinates. Everyone keep your fingers and paws crossed and say a prayer that this does the trick! I will let you all know more as soon as I know more!
Thanks for all of your kind words of concern and for your prayers.

Ozzie update...

Just want all of Ozzie's buddies to know that he is still in the hospital. The vet wanted to keep him through the weekend. Things haven't changed much. If things are not better by Monday the vet will do another surgical procedure. This one would involve creating a new opening in the urethra for Ozzie to urinate from. Paws and fingers crossed he won't have to do this! Thanks for your continued concern and prayers. I will be going to visit him for awhile in the morning.
