I think it’s safe to say that Sadie is feeling f-i-n-e.
A woman from our vet’s office called to check on Sadie today and when she asked me how Sadie was doing, I looked over at her and saw this…
I think Sadie is finding it a little difficult to take the vet’s “take it easy” orders to heart.
Lunch
Lunch today was nice and simple. I made myself chicken salad and served it with a side of carrots and a Bosc pear.
And no, I didn’t take the time to peel my carrots. Wash and eat!
Further proof that Sadie is feeling more and more like her old self can be seen in the below picture.
I can’t even handle her face in that photo!
I shall call that look Chicken Obsessed.
You can also see the area where they shaved Sadie’s shoulder to prep her for surgery in the above picture. (You can see a little bit of her stitches as well, but as someone who cannot handle blood and pictures of anything medical, no close up pictures of stitches – canine or human – will ever pop up on this blog, I assure you.) Ryan and I are assuming her arm is shaved because that’s where they inserted an IV, but that’s a guess. Maybe they just wanted to make her look fancy.
Blog Challenge
For my blogging friends out there, Katy Widrick is hosting a 28-day blog challenge where participants dedicate a month to “reworking, refreshing and rethinking blogs, social media spaces, community and more.”
I already signed up to participate and wanted to spread the word just in case you’re looking for a little motivation to help you improve your blog a bit, too!
You can learn more here: 28 Day Blog Challenge.

I have been following your blog for awhile. I would like to know if Sadie is a red bone hound. She is suck a cool dog. I am let down when Sadie is not in a post.
Angie @ Losing It and Loving It says
Oh the chicken face, I melt! Yep usually they put the IV in the leg and always shave it.
I’m doing the 28 day blog challenge too. Already completed my goal for today!
Laura says
That is why her arm is shaved-so they could access the vein for the shot of drugs they give her to knock her out enough to intubate her (the dogs have to be pretty much asleep before the tube can be place down their throat-then drugs get pumped in via that tube to knock them out all the way). She may not have even had an IV.

Good to see her happy. She has wonderful “2 legs” (as we call ourselves) who care and love her as if she was a “2 leg” herself! 🙂 Best wishes for a wonderful diagnosis and a speedy recovery!

Rachel says
This is so lame but I have been thinking about Sadie so much since the lump scare that she made an appearance in my dream last night! She was as cute as can be too!
Sara @ fitcupcaker says
