    Pics of her mouth. I had her out a bit and it's warm today so she was panting some. She's looking a little perkier this afternoon. The vet said she may lose the tooth on the end yet, it will depend if it anchors well.

    Poor girl. I know you were worried about how it would look and it doesn't look bad at all. I'm happy to see that she's already looking more like her old self. Her ears are perky and her eyes look happy. I hope you both get caught up on the needed rest this weekend. I'm going to keep lighting candles for her for a while. That stuff had better be gone! I'm so glad she's home and safe.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.

    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.

    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    Whew!! Welcome Home Raven Girl!! She looks great!! I am so glad she is home with you and the T's where she can relax and get the rest she needs to heal.
    She is still in my thoughts and I will do everything within my mental power to make sure this does not get worse and that it's all gone.
    (please give her a hug for me)

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    WELCOME HOME, RAVEN!!

    I am so happy to hear that the pretty girl is home! Raven and Jess, I've been thinking and praying of you both every night. I am really glad they are helping, the vid is beautiful and the song fits it very well. Keep updating us!

    Aw Jess, that update really made me smile I'm so happy she's going back to the Raven you know. I can't believe she's feeling that much better already. Must be the PT forces at work. Please give her some cuddles from me. And the two Ts as well.

    I'm thoroughly amazed at what an outstanding job was done on the surgery. I expected the result to *look bad* initially and it really doesn't. It is encouraging to hear that she is back to being her feisty self. Seems like the healing process has already begun.

    Rachel, I really think the surgeon did an excellent job too.

    I thought I'd post a couple before and after pics that show it more closely. I used a red line on the before pics to kind of show what portion of her lower jaw was removed. But really when you look at her panting, you notice the canine tooth missing more than anything, you really don't even realize there's a chunk of her jaw missing there unless you look close.

    She looks awesome! I can't believe what a clean job they did! Amazing. It looks like the surgery was a success, let's hope it stays that way! Pretty Raven, I'm glad she's back home. Now, get to work, Jess.

    Thank you guys, for keeping us in your thoughts . I must admit now that a few days have passed I'm getting a bit jittery and anxious that it might show up again. I worry it will crop back up around those front two incisors on the left. I'm trying not to but I can't help it!

    I have a couple pics to share, one of all three babies from yesterday and then of Raven today after a little walk.
