RIP lil Jane

Jane just passed away. She was 3 weeks old. She had breathing problems and I was just about to take her in to the vet's..was waiting for the office to open, but half an hour before that, she took her last breath. RIP lil girl.

Now I just hope that the people how were going to adopt here, will settle with her brother, who seems to have gotten everything that's strong and healthy from the entire litter...as the lone survivor.

Josie's leg

Josie's leg has not improved, but I did not expect that yet.

Ruptured ligament

I took Josie to the vet today and the diagnosis wasn't too good. She has a ruptured ligament in her left hind knee and the surgery is in the $800 range...

She can live with it, but it will not be pain free, her leg will be stiff, she will always limp and probably develop arthritis early in that leg.

I'm hoping to either find somebody to adopt her that can afford such surgery, or I have to do a fund raiser.

Josie's personality is absolutely amazing. She is the calmest dog I have ever encountered, yet not fearful at all.

The vet said that they usually have to anesthetize a dog before they can diagnose a ruptured ligament, but she just laid there and held still, the little tip of her tail still going a million miles an hour.

Now I have to come up with an idea about the fundraising...any suggestions welcome!

Josie

Josie, chocolate lab, hit by car, possible hip injury. I saw her at the shelter and figured she's better off here. I will attempt to raise some funds for her to take her to the vet, IF it is not getting better the next 24 hours.

She can walk, but limps, she is clearly in pain, so I gave her meds for that:
