Great pics. Maybe give him something special for dinner or a snack today. Piece of steak, chicken...
It was Friday morning, so he's finally on the mend. Couple more days and will be 100%.

I don't give him people food, unfortunately... which is new for me. I used to split a large pizza with my Husky in my 20s. Trying to keep him healthy and not begging.

Got him a new bed, some good wet food, and a ton of treats. Seems to be enjoying those so far.

No cone of shame?

Mine didn't need one either, which was a little disappointing because those pictures are priceless!

He had it on when we left the vet. I live in the city so have to walk him down a short gravel alley and into a dog park to do his business (less than 1/4 of a block). He couldn't sniff the ground and kept getting it caught on stuff, so we took it off. He hasn't really messed with the incision area. It seemed a little too bulky for him to be comfortable. Poor dude had been through enough.

Pupper updates. Just turned 9 months on 3/9. Over 60 lbs which I think is odd for Aussie breeds. Oh well, big boy with lots of growing left to do.

Good looking pooch. Our Aussie stayed small because of the Beagle half, maxed out at 30lbs, which is fine.

His dad was really broad and thick and his mom was smaller. Both pure Aussie though. I'm cool with him being bigger, but the vet keeps acting like I'm over feeding him. Look at that face. He gets whatever he wants.

OMHO, that's about the perfect size. Ours is 35#, less food to buy and smaller poop.

Do you have two boxers?

My boxer could literally shit for days. I mean literally - Vick Ashley style.

A Boxer and a Boxer mix, yes. And yes.

Did you know that owning a dog the size of a boxer supposedly leaves a larger carbon footprint than owning a SUV?

Not that I care. I'd kill to have a Newf again.

My Great Dane leaves some monsters in the yard, and he's a runt at about 110 lbs. A legit 180 pounder would be ridiculous.

I wish Urblock was still here. I'm sure he has a few more good Rango stories by now.
