"What are you talking about Mom? I feel fine, I want to run!"

"Running is what I do best! I'm not letting a few stitches stop me! Plus I"m getting used to being around all these other dogs."

"Why does Heyoka get this big house? I like it! I want one like this too!"
Anvik is so gorgeous!! :eek: Talk about eye candy! Looks like those few stitches can't phase him. What a beautiful dog!
wow, that's quite a zipper job! Anvik looks no worse for the wear - what a great smile he's got! p.S. - I vote that Anvik gets his own big house, too! ;)
Oh my, you certainly can't keep a good (and handsome) man down. :D But you really do have to be careful, Anvik (of both the stitches and of Heyoka, if he catches you in his house). ;)
That's great that he's recovering so quickly! He's a beautiful dog :)
You brave boy! My dogs would be playing on it so bad so make the most of it! :p :D
I'm glad to see that Anvik is doing well! :)
I see snow on the ground, wish we had some too!
I'm glad he's doing so well!
Wow, Anvik doesn't even have to wear that jacket!!!! He's out and about as though nothing ever happened!!!! That's great!!!!
But I can see that he certainly went through some surgery alright :eek:
I'm so glad that you posted a picture of him for us, I've had him on my mind so often!!!!! What a Wonderul dog!!!!!
He still wears the jacket at night or when I can't watch him. He's been really good about leaving the stitches alone though.Quote:

The Big "X" sure does mark the spot!
WHATTA Zipper!
Glad he's feelin so good!
;)
Great to see you recovering well Annie! :D
I'm sorry I was unable to respond to your other thread but he's been in my thoughts. Glad to hear he's doing so well. I hope he stays calm enough that he doesn't re-injure himself. lol
Thanks, he was back at the vet yesterday. I thought he had an infection, but my vet assures me it's just a normal collection of post-surgical fluids. Apparently it would be reabsorbed, but if not, he would need a drain put in. Anvik decided to take care of it himself yesterday. He partially popped a stitch, nothing major, just a tiny hole. All the fluid drained on it's own! I think he did it on purpose as he hasn't touched the stitches since! I'm grateful to him for that actually--means he avoids more surgery and I don't have to flush a drain for a week! I hate wound drains!Quote:

be a shame if the Re-Po guy showed up and wanted him back.
Watch out if you spot him taking a beer out of the fridge!
:D
:D That's all I can say, er, type!!
Saving me money!! ROFL!!!! Yeah, right! Tell that to my bank account!Quote:

Adoption rates are not high for five year old sled dogs who leap tall fences in a single bound, have health issues and scream like they are being tortured on a daily basis! He disappeared from the shelter website very quickly after I pulled him!
He's not allowed in the house unless he leashed to me or in his crate. He tried to eat Polly Paws(my house feral cat)! He might steal a beer from my hand since some days he does drive me to drink, but he won't be getting in the fridge on his own!! ;)

So, are you suggesting ole Anvik may have become "LOST" in the Shelter records? http://petoftheday.com/i/our_smilies/tongue.gif
Sure hope he settles down a bit -
you could prolly stand to give up the Howls of Death Screams!

He's a husky. They often have difficulty telling the difference between cat and snack...sigh...... Fortunately, Anvik had a muzzle on when he went for Polly so no harm done. She gave him a good whap on the nose. Hopefully, he'll remember that. I've lost one cat to the dogs(not in the house, she escaped into yard), my heart can't take that again so I'm very careful about the inter-species interactions!Quote:

I could certainly live without the Death Howl! I don't mind when he's excited about something, like dinner or going for a run, but the rest of the time I could live without ever hearing that sound again!
:D Any chance of catching his famous Death Howl on video with sound? Before your neighbors freak? Maybe you can take him into an airplane hanger or something...like his next trip to the vets? ;)Quote:
