    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 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.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.
    [/SIZE]



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

    Woo Hoo!! The Raven we've all been missing is back!! And I have confidence that she is back to stay!! Jess, you must be so relieved!! That is such great news!!
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    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.

    I am so glad our little girl is better now. Listen to me - OUR little girl. It almost feels like she belongs to all of us. Your video made me cry. Reminds me of all the times with my Sherry. It's amazing how we all think alike. That's what's so great about this place. You feel right at home and you're not afraid to say what you feel. Nobody laughs at you here. Great to be a part of it.

    Give kisses to OUR little girl!

    Really, it just looks like her tooth is missing. Like I said, I had looked at pictures of similar surgeries and the results looked horrendous.

    Raven's surgeon did a great job. Is there anyway we can send your vet & the surgeon some thank you notes?

    Welcome home, sweet beautiful Raven! I am just so glad she is doing well, Jess. She couldn't have asked for a better home than with you, Tasha, and Tommy. give the sweet girl a kiss for me, please. and it does like she is just missing her tooth. the vet did a good job. and that's a good idea for the thank you notes for Raven's surgeon, Kay.

    Hello, k9soul, Tash, Tommy and Raven ... just checking in on you (and yes, Raven, sorry but the mouth rinse was really necessary - that way you get a big thumbs-up at your recheck appointment this week, and everything heals up really nicely with no problems)

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
