Bandage Change and Gaga Land

I went to have my bandage changed today and for some reason they gave me a "light" sedative which actually didn't kick in until I got home - Mom said I was GaGa Land - I am not sure what she meant by that but I must admit I was feeling a little goofy - can you believe Mom not only took a photo of me in that state but then she would post it on MY blog !!!!!   It only lasted about an hour and I was completely back to normal. The good news is the dogtors say my foot is looking VERY good and healing really well. I have another bandage change next Thursday and then the Tuesday after that the stitches comes out. They leave the stitches in a full 14 days in the feet because they need it to be really well healed due to the pressure of walking and such. Today I just have a smaller and lighter bandage - no minions :) Mom says the hard thing is going to be keeping me from bouncing around on my foot - I still want to race outside and bark at the geese and do the happy dance when Dad comes home.

  3. Oh Mr. Reilly. You are so adorable with your little pink tongue. Katie wants to kiss your nose and make you feel better. We're glad you are doing so well though, ready to chase geese already! But we think you should save the happy dances until all the stitches are out and you're fully healed. Your dad will understand.
