And Surgery it is!

Looks like Miss Daisy will be getting surgery!  Her hips look good (not great) and her back is good so she will go under the knife (believe me this is something to celebrate because the alternative was pretty grim).  She is scheduled to go in on Friday the 13th at 8am.  The surgery is expensive and she will have a long road to recovery, but I'm told she will likely be as good as new! Of course there is that little statistic that says she is 30% likely to do the same thing to her other leg.  (lets not go there right now)  These injuries are a result of the angle of the knee and nutty behavior.  check and check!  We love Daisy so much we will do what we can for her.  Well I love her and Dan loves me...so he is obligated right?  Dan says it is worth it to get to keep her in the kennel for 2 months :)  Hopefully, Daisy will be able to go for a walk around the block by her 2nd birthday in May.
