I'm happy to report that Bess' surgery went well and I was able to bring her home today. We stopped off at the Pet Market to pick her up a freeze dried lamb liver and a pizzle stick as a reward for being such a brave girl.
She checked out the store and charmed everyone before we headed for home. Right away she found her very favorite squeaky toy in the whole world and sat down for a good five minutes of squeaking. Then the squeaky was put away for awhile to help the rest of us, dogs and humans, retain our sanity. She's now working away on her pizzle stick in her crate, perched on a fluffy pillow and surrounded by her favorite toys. Thanks to everyone who was thinking of her as she went through this rough few days.
She'll get to visit with her new adoptive humans this weekend. Now that she's past the worst of the heartworm shot danger she can have a few visitors as long as she doesn't get too excited. On December 3rd she'll have the second half of her treatment and then it will be back to her crate. Poor girl. The good news though is that she should be ready to go to her forever home around New Year's seeing as she's already been spayed. It will be a happy 2009 for sweet Bess as she will have a loving family of her own for the very first time: mom and dad, boys, grandmas, an older fur-sister, a back yard - the works! She definitely deserves her happy ending.
