I found something to pour money into faster than I do my Bounder.
It's a real DOG........ I mean it's a REAL dog.
My faithful old pure bred Pound Hound rescue dog (Reddog) destroyed the ACL in his left leg in January.
One $2550 operation, and three months of careful late night neighborhood walks, has had his rehab progressing quite well... Until last evening.
About 7:30pm the doorbell rang and he bounded (as well as a 12 year old dog with cancer and a bum leg can bound) down the hall to greet Jane. Jane is my best friend and Reddog's true love.
Reddog must have Bosch brakes because when he reached the stone foyer they locked up and he slid spread eagle all the way into the living room. Actually, it was more of a tumble as the ACL in his right leg snapped mid stride and left him with only 2? good legs. I'd give him about an 8.5, out of 10, on his landing.
Today he is back in the Vet's for xrays and surgery prep. I've been promised a discount on the operation this time. $1800 plus add ons. There is no such thing as a free dog......
Meet Reddog (we were in Hope Alaska when he asked me to take his picture)
