I haven't followed this story from the beginning so forgive me. When I looked at the first picture, I thought "Abby doo"? Odd pet name for her S/O..... Then I saw the dog...... I'll just leave via the back door.....

I'm excited so I figured I would give a little update on my Abby girl. It's been a long half a year since her surgery with lots of highs and lows. She's an old gal so surgery was sketchy to begin with. Options were non existent seeing the tendon was severed, so surgery it was. She pulled through and got stronger with each day, started to stand and walk about quite well albeit with an orthopedic boot. She has adjusted to the boot very well which is a good thing as we recently learned that she will be in it permanently. They fixed the area that was severed but the rest of the tendon was stretched to badly to allow her to be without the boot for support. She is the goodest of good girls! Today she trusted herself to do her favorite thing of all with the boot on.. God is good!

Can see that dad was making sure to stay between her and the "deep end".

It's just a "help um up" harness". She swam like back in the old days but you can see dad never left her side

She's having a blast! Is that some manner of doggie life jacket she has on? If so, seems like a good idea for aiding with floatation for an older dog.
