Tucker's Sad News

Tucker has been limping lately, so mom took him to the Vet. Turns out he has elbow dysplasia. We have been told that he has to keep his active life on a lower key: no jumping down, no running around, no playful spazzing, etc. This is sad. Tucker is all about playtime. You know, he is only four years old, so young still.

Additionally, the anesthesia that they gave him made him sick. So he was melancholy, morose, uninterested in food, and lethargic. Mom called the vet this morning and she said he should be feeling better by this evening. She said they put a note in his file that he will need different anesthesia in the future. Anyway, he has been a bit more like himself today. We got him to eat some rice this morning and he went outside afterwards, so that's good.

So if you wouldn't mind praying for our little Tucker, it would be much appreciated. He brings so much joy and laughter to our family.

Here's a silly photo of Tucker:

Here's a photo after Tucker played in a mud puddle (his favorite activity at the park):
