You are right about that Dixie. Graham has charisma. This dog can turn on the charm and make one instantly feel that you matter to him ...that you are special to him. In addition to being absolutely beautiful he is well mannered and polite. He really is epitome of what a therapy dog should be.
AdoreMyDogs,
Just checking in to see how you & Graham
are holding up..Hope Graham is not in too
much pain.
Please know that Graham & Family are in my
thoughts and prayers!!!
Things will get Better,I just know it..
Good Wishes & hugs from Buddy & Liz.
Is surgery still scheduled for this Friday? Our fella is on our minds constantly. It will be good to get this behind us and the boy on his way to healing.
Love and kisses from Hannah, Tucker and Rachel.
How's he doin??
Thanks for the concerns. We are counting down the days. I keep telling Graham that he has to be brave and hang in there....this surgery, according to what the orthopedic surgeon says, is quite complecated and lengthy. I suspect he will be depressed and in alot of pain when it is all over with.
Surgery is still planned for this Friday. I drop him off before work, and I am taking almost 2 weeks off work to help him through this. I did check to see if other vets do the surgery and found the other emergency vet specialist in the area actually seems to be about the same in price, if not more. None of the regular vets do the surgery, only the specialists seem to be doing it.
As long as Graham has that splint and cast on, he is in little pain...but when that splint and cast comes off....WATCH OUT!!! Without the support of it he screams his poor head off :( I am going to insist that he is anesthitised for any further bandage changes, at least until I know that he's not in so much pain.
Thanks again for your concerns. I am real worried, but both Dan, Graham and I will get through this. I will let you know how his surgery goes. I won't have him back with me until at least Saturday...probablly Sunday. I know I can count on all of you to help me get through this with your kind words and prayers :) It's already been easier then it would have been without all of your support :)
Leslie we will definitely be thinking of you and Graham on Friday! What a wonderful mom you are to be taking two weeks off to help Graham. I know you feel so lucky to have found Graham, but Graham was also very blessed to have found you. Take care, both of you. We'll be praying for a complete recovery for your precious Graham.
Leslie - I don't know how I missed the postings on the update of your precious Graham's condition. I want you to know that I will be thinking of all of you and praying that Graham will go through his surgery like the champ that he is. I just feel so awful that this had to happen to him in the first place by no fault of your own or Graham's. Leslie please consider the help that everyone has offered in regard to the bills -I'm sure among all of us we could sure take the edge off that terrible fee for you and I know I'd be more than happy to send some bucks to your vet to help with this. I respect your feelings and you are such a wonderful, caring person. The love you have for that wonderful dog is awesome. Anyway prayers be with you all. I'll be posting in after Thanksgiving to see how everything went. God Bless your family!!!!
How wonderful of you to take off to be with him. He will need your help. My prayers will be with you and Graham every step of the way.
Our thoughts and prayers will be with you, Dan, and especially Graham on Friday! Keep us posted and you are such a good momma! It will help him recover faster with you home to give him tons of TLC. :D

We will be thinking of you and sweet Graham on Friday and praying all goes well. He'll be so happy to have you all day for himself that he'll recover very quickly. Could you ask the surgeon to give him something for the pain, at least for the first couple of days? I'm not in favor of too many pills for pups, but perhaps this is one instance when I would change my mind. Love to you both.
Dear Graham and Leslie. All of our prayers and thoughts and hopes for the speediest recovery will be with you on Friday. Leslie, I know that having you there to assist Graham during his early recovery will be the best healing medicine of all. You are SUCH a wonderful, loving mommy :) And Graham, I don't think we have to tell you how special you are to all of us! All of our love to you Graham, and to your very special family. Love, Sandra, Cody and Star
Extra prayers for Graham and Leslie tomorrow, everybody. We love you two sooo much.
