HUGE THANKS!

Reba sends out a grateful bark and a thankful woof to everyone who has kept up with her story and all those who have contributed to her vet bills. She is truly the "little engine that could", remaining sweet and loving thru-out her ordeal. A huge sigh of relief at our foster home as we enjoy having Reba healthy and happy-a darling and loving little houseguest. And isn't she lovely???

Reba-the explorer

Now that Reba is 100%, she has to catch up! Check out who has been in her yard...

We've been waiting for this!

A sunny day & happy, healthy pointer!

Poor little girl--stitched up like a Teddy-bear

Here is Reba with her whole set of stitches! Don't worry, they are coming out in 2 days (!) and she doesn't seem the least bit bothered. Just hanging out on her couch watching Idol!

Continuing to do well!

Reebs is doing great. Going in tomorrow to get her 3 drains removed. Her "hospital bed" is the doggie couch. She really wants to go outside and PLAY! She tugs on her leash in hopes we can run all over the backyard, sorry Reba, not yet.

re-couping on the couch

REBA is home w/ us after her final surgery!!!!

Thanks everyone for sending healing wishes Reba's way. My whole vet's office is amazed how well Reba is doing. She basically was basically cut all the way down the middle on Tues. After a nite at hospital, the staff expected a sad and forlorn looking doggie this morning, instead she was wagging her tail and barking for attention! She has eaten for them all day and is looking happy, happy, happy! So, they told me to bring her home! She is not happy to be confined to her crate, but that's the way it is:(
Reba is wrapped in a series of towels that are taped to her so she can "drain" into them (yuck) and I am taking her back tomorrow for a bandage change. And apparently we will do the bandage change for a few days, well they will, I am frankly not up to the task!
Way to go, Reba! In the words of Dr. Maryanne, "You can't keep a good dog down."
