5-13-08: I stopped by to visit Gunny at the vet today. He looks as
good as you would expect after having such a major surgery. I can’t
tell you how many of the staff came up to me while I was at his
cage…”are you Gunny’s foster mom?…he is such a sweet boy!”…was
repeated many times. Mr. G was pretty groggy but able to stand and wag his
tail and sniff my face. He couldn‘t quite manage any kisses
though…must be too much motor planning while intoxicated! But, when I opened
his cage to give him a real big scratch, he gave it his best shot to
push his way past me and get OUT for some better attention. I tell ya,
that is one strong boy….30 pounds underweight, missing a leg, really
drunk on pain meds, and I had a hard time blocking his escape! Way to
go Gunny! If all goes well, he will head home tomorrow. As a side
note, thanks to all of the emotional and financial support the rescue has
received since we told the world about Gunny. It has been so humbling
and heart-warming. Gunny has a huge fan club, and I promise he
appreciates every last one of your thoughts and prayers.
