Well we go in for surgery tomorrow , today has been good for Mya, although they rarly do much in this heat . They both have been in the house baby sitting the airconditioner since late morning. This morning she saw the neibours young boys near the fence and tried to dart over to see them, forgetting her situation we guess , and lost her step ending in a bit of a chest slide in the grass. She scrambled up and kept on to the fence to say hi. Didn’t appear to do any harm to her at all. Scared the crap out of Allison though. We will soon prep the house for fasting after midnight, we have a couple of ponds here that she could sneek a drink from if she manages to sneek out of sight for a second, she can be stealthy.

Best of luck to Mya for a smooth and uneventful surgery. As they say, recovery can be a b*tch, but if your vet feels she is a good candidate for surgery then she should do well! Just be prepared for potential ups and downs 🙂 And don’t hesitate to hop over to the forums (if you havn’t already) if you have specific questions, usually more people will see a post over there if you need an answer in a hurry.
As for improving traction on the ramp you mentioned in your last post I think you can get paint with sand or some other gritty stuff in it. Or 3M makes “sandpaper” tape you can just stick down on a slippery surface. I used it on a board I have in the back of my car–my dog was slipping all over it but once I put the tape down–no problem! You don’t want Mya slipping on that ramp after her surgery!
We’ll be thinking of you guys tomorrow with all lucky 13 paws crossed!
