I'm so sorry. I think I told you, Ernst (who was a lab/retriever mix) tore one ACL when he was very young and then the other one when he was much older. And we didn't do the second surgery (and he ended up being fine, oddly enough).

But good luck to you and Norm. What a drag. If I had to rethink my career choices, vet might be a good one. If I wanted steady money...

Man! And I was bitching about a $220.00 bill the other day. For my Dog's check-up. He
has a trick knee that goes out once in awhile. He's had it since he was a puppy.
So when he was young he would do handstands too pee. He still does now and then.
I feel for you.

Poor ol' Norm. I hope all goes well

I've had a rough month or so. I lost my Dad. He was 82 and live a great life.

Bubba loved him. My dog before her Kostya was Granny's boy but Bubba definitely was Granda's girl.

The last photo I took of him.

So sorry about your dad, Austicman...My thoughts are with you...and I'm happy you have Bubba to comfort you...They know when you need to hug someone, even if they are sad about things...

I'm very sorry about your dad. I know it must be hard. I'm glad that he had a good life. That's a great picture of him with Bubba.

Django was my dad's favorite. One year for Father's Day, I made him a card with this picture on it:



When my dad died in 2007, I sat down at his computer to write his obituary. On his desk, with some other family photos, he had Django's picture in a little frame.

Like Rob said, funny how some dogs bond with other people.

Is norm a lab? I initially thought my pups are part lab but doubt it because they're not growing too much
