Poko's Adventures

One week

It’s been one week since Poko’s surgery.  I’m feeling much better about my decision.  Poko is healing well, and he’s slowly getting back into his routines.  He is starting to take his toy outside with him, he wags his tail, and has no troubles moving around the house.

Poko - 1 week post op

Yesterday, Poko came outside with me, and relaxed in the sun, while I worked in the garden.

Gardening with Poko

Last night was the first night I slept upstairs!  Poko did great.  He slept through the night, and didn’t cry at all.  Although he did get up at 6:30 am…he doesn’t know what Saturday is!  I was worried he would get used to me sleeping on the couch, but he did great on his own.

Poko is also coming off his pain meds.  No complaints from him so far!

   Oh great news!!! When Butch came off the pain meds that is when he really started doing all his regular Butchey things again. I think they see pink elephants on some of that stuff!

   Keep up the good work!!!

   How awesome! I just read through his whole story! It’s great to follow along with someone who did this at the same time as me 🙂 I’m so happy for Poko. 🙂

   PS if he needs help with stairs or anything, I found a similar harness in the Doctors Foster and Smith catalog that’s only 18.99 ish (depending on what size you get)

   It’s been great for me to follow you and Snoopy too! I’m going to wait on the stairs until Poko’s staples are out. We have a back porch that has 5 steps. The front only has 2, so we’ve been in and out just the front door for now. Thanks for the tip on the harness!
