I'm home taking care of my dog. We had to take her to the animal hospital today because she hurt her leg last night chasing a squirrel. It turns out that she tore the ligament off the bone (on her "good" leg...this happened last year to her other leg and it never really healed properly) and needs surgery. She's a very hyper dog, so we are giving her tranquilizers and taking turns sitting with her so she doesn't fall off the couch in a daze.
I know that as dogs get older, they fall apart, but she's so much a part of this family. She's almost 11, but she has the personality of a puppy. I love her so much.
