Curbed!

Here's where I would post a pic of Blondie with his cute purple splint, but the computer here can't read my sandisk, so it will have to wait until we return to Chicago.

Blondie seems to have a broken leg, or something else wrong with his leg. Our Chicago vet took x-rays and then splinted his *left* leg, even though he's had an apparent problem with his right leg for several weeks. But, he got the splint wet (here's where I would post pictures of him swimming), and then he resumed limping on his *right* leg again. So, we took him to the vet here in Indiana to get a second opinion. Definitely the right leg, says she. And she prescribed pain meds, no splint, and lots of swimming!

Thanks to the wonders of doggie-profen, we now have our energetic pooch back again.
I think he's sleeping right now, but that's because he spent the morning playing (by himself) with his tennis ball. I have to try to get video of this. In the meantime, I'll post all manner of photographic evidence of life with Blondie upon our return to Chicago Sunday.
