Another update on Rocky, the sick rottie

what a beautiful rottie! Is there no way at all to operate him? I'm so sorry to know that he is sick..... :(

He does look like he's feeling a lot better. He's such a beautiful boy.

Glad to hear he's still doing well. I hope they can get a pup without restrictions getting in the way. Sometimes it makes one feel better to know that the pup got to meet the older dog before the older one passed away. He/she will need the Rocky seal of approval.

Ooooh, poor mister Rocky. :( It's always nice to read up on that sweet ole' boy, Rocky. I am very glad to hear that he's doing well at the moment.... and I really hope that it stays that way Big hugs to you, handsome man! :)

Glad to hears he's doign so well! What a remarkable recovery!

I'm so glad to hear he's doing better. :)

Oh i am sooo glad to hear that, i have thought of him, and im glad to hear his update, he is such a beautiful Rottie boy! :)

The difference is remarkable! He looks so alert and healthy. I hope he continues doing well. Miracles do happen. Love sure is the best medicine, isn't it?

Now how did I miss this thread the first time around? I have often wondered how he was doing and I'm more than happy to hear he's doing so well. At least they are all having some good times together as the time grows nearer. I do hope he continues to feel good:)

Thank you everyone, for caring so much about Rocky! :)

He's still doing fine, even though my mother told me yesterday that he sometimes seems to "slip" now. Well, his hip bones and spine are not in the very best condition, even though he seems to cope very well.

Well, their vet said he wouldn't like to do it on a dog of Rocky's age and condition, apparently there's a high risk.

Well, that could be, yes. And Reinhold (mom's fiancé) thinks it's easier for the pup to grow up with another dog as a "role model". He made good experiences in the past, when Rocky was young.
