FIVE Years Old!

Our puppy turned five on April 18th.  It's been a difficult year with losing his best friend and then going through two surgeries.  I think (hope) he's finally over the rough patch and on the way to a great recovery.
TTA surgery (knee surgery).  We had built him a bed and placed it in the middle of the living room.  We took turns staying home with him to ensure to restrict his movements.  

6 weeks after his first surgery we had brought him in for his final x-rays.  It turned out that he had broken a bone and thus the screws were no longer securing the plate to the bone.

He went in for a second surgery.  This time we taped a box to his leg so he would not be inclined to lay on his injured leg.  (He was not a happy camper)

Even with his injured leg he's helping with folding the laundry.
