Re: Prayers For Bella and Riley

@77yangya I thought the collar around the neck looked very comfortable, not like the big plastic ones that my dogs have had in the past after surgery. The one Chaz had on her was more like something I used to put around my neck while on the plane, so I could sleep. Made me smile. Imagine it is so she can't be reaching around, licking or pulling on anything while recuperating. She was walking pretty well.

She looked like she got her head stuck in an inner tube! 😄  She was probably still on pain medication, but her little tail was wagging, glad to be home.  Clearly Hunter was happy to have her back!  I couldn’t watch the whole video because when he started barking, my dog went crazy thinking a big doggie was at our front door!🤣

Re: Prayers For Bella and Riley

Waited all day for Chaz's post and was so relieved when he finally did. .So glad to see Riley is home. now we have to continue praying for healing for all of them. I felt so bad for Chaz the other night because the stress brought on a migraine and you could hear the pain in his voice.

@World Traveler  - They are called donuts - I got them for my dogs after surgery - so much easier than the cones they used to put on the dogs.

Please add my fur-niece dog Cali to your prayers. She is 11 and was diagnosed with Cushing's Disease. Waiting for the specialist to get more info.

Hi World Traveler:

Yes, she did look like that!  Oh, sure Riley will be okay.  Ball players get that kind of thing.  People, dogs, it's quite common and can be fixed.  It's Bella I'm worried about.  This morning I watched Chaz on his facebook site.  Riley seems to be walking a bit better than when she first came home.  She seems kind of down because of being kept in the crate but Chaz must follow doctor's orders.  I feel so terrible for Chaz because he loves them so deeply.  They have to keep Bella very sedated and he was so upset to see her like that.  They let him visit her and get in the crate with her.  She's eating though and her temperature is down!  Only pathology can really tell what's going on.  They told Chaz that it may be some kind of VERY rare type of I'm not sure if he used the word fungal.  It was garbled.  The vet said they saw only one case like that but still, they're not sure.  You must've seen all this too on his site.  That's right, they don't want Riley messing with her leg until it's advanced in healing.  I guess she'll need some therapy to use the leg properly and learn to put her weight on it again.  Someone mentioned water therapy.  This way she can exercise the leg without weight, in the beginning.  I just wish I could wave a magic wand and this never happen....

I know what you mean!  He was crying and all choked up.  He was so upset.  He kept apologizing.  He's so sweet and he loves very deeply.  It's so frustrating.

Re: Prayers For Bella and Riley

From Chaz early morning 3/9/19:

 

Riley is home and resting still on her medication for pain. Her Leg Implant healing is going to be a long slow process to recovery.

 

As far as Bella she still in the Pet Hospital she is heavily medicated on pain medication recovering from her surgery. We still have no idea what’s wrong with her, until we get her test results on either Monday or Tuesday hopefully. They think it might possibly be a Fungal infection as she has lesions inside her body near her Heart & Lungs. Just praying that it’s not Cancerous.


Thank you for your continuous Love, Support and Prayers. Please keep the Prayers coming for both of them. Thank you
