Being 4-legged is so overrated…

Last night I managed to snag a picture of Chloe sleeping one of our 2’x2′ leather couch cushions (with blanket covering it) because she was just too cute. She kept looking like she wanted to be on the couch with me because the “grass is always greener on the other side”, so I took a couch cushion square off, covered it in a blanket and let her curl up on it. That definitely satisfied her.

Chloe curled up on the couch cushion, you can see a part of it showing under the blanket...

Anyway, so I am going to sound like a broken record at this point when I tell you that Chloe is still doing great! We decided that both she and our other dog Rocket were missing each other alot, so we had a brief reunion for the two of them in the grassy backyard. Because they do like to play, we limited their time together because Chloe is still getting used to the back leg. She only stumbled a couple times, but got right back up like it was no big deal. They both enjoyed their reunion as short as it was. We even let Chloe drink from her favorite toy the hose, though careful not to get her all wet since she still has staples. Chloe is resting again in the living room, whining once in a while to go back outside…

And today I ordered a Ruff Wear Harness! This way it should arrive right around the time she gets her staples out so she can start using it when the vet gives her the OK. We got her a red one because she has red REI dog backpacking boots from when Chloe, my dad and I went on a back packing trip a few years back. She will be a stylin’ girl!

    Oh, Chloe just looks so adorable sleeping on the pillows/blanket! 🙂 I’m so glad that she got to play with Rocket again… I’m sure that they missed each other alot. Are you keeping them separate this whole time? Do they get to sleep together?

    Keep feeling better Chloe!!! 🙂

      Unfortunately yes I think it is best for Chloe since she is the submissive one and once in a while Rocket asserts her dominance. Also, when they play Rocket sometimes play bites the back of her legs, which is something I think Chloe can’t handle only having one back leg…Its been hard having to deal with this, but once Chloe gets her staples out in less than a week, things should become more normal again.
