One year post-op!!

This weekend marked the one year anniversary of Winston's surgery on his front legs for premature closure of the distal ulna.  One year ago, Mark and I traveled to Dr. Mary's for surgery that we hoped would prevent a lifetime of lameness for Winston.

Winston: post op on 9/17/2010

Winston today: 9/19/2011

I can run!

I can run fast!

I can tumble, too!

I am really handsome, too and look like my dear ole Dad, Riley!

I am wonder dog!

We are so proud of Winston! We can barely belief all he has accomplished in his 20 months of life.  One thing is certain, Winston's adventure continues. Again, we express our gratitude to Dr Mary, who made this all possible. 

PS: Yes, we know we set the jump up wrong--we were in a hurry and we never noticed the jump until we saw the pics. OOPS! 

Soggy Weekend

Tropical Storm Lee has been around all weekend, making for a soggy holiday weekend.  Winston has not been too happy with the limited outside activity.

Winston relished his outside time in between rain bands. 

Seems like Winston is trying to tell me something!

Mark took this awesome pic of Carly(left) and Elliott(right) this week. 

Not only was this a stormy holiday weekend, it was Elliott's (in the middle)Birthday!

Elliott was ten years old this weekend! Here they pose with the cake I made for him.

Happy Birthday, Elliott! They can have their cake and eat it, too!

Still breezy and rainy today. Hopefully clear skies are on the way soon.
