Tycho update and pics


Tycho has been home from the hospital for 4 nights now and he is doing very well. Almost too well. He's no longer thrilled with the idea of being locked in a pen all day and wants to get back to his usual job of patrolling the house. Unfortunately, he needs to be confined and only taken out on leash for pee/poo breaks for the next 2 months! Towards the end of the 2 months we are able to start incorporating short leash walks. He is walking very well, the right leg was operated on, and he even stands on it while lifting his left to pee! (I cringe when he does that). Tyke is still a bit grumpy with Kepler (who incidentally will be a patient himself next week as it is time for his neuter) but other than that his is pretty happy.


At home his first night.

The shave job seems a bit excessive, I guess they wanted to make the left side even

A look at his incision (remember Tyke, chicks dig scars!)

Unhappy in his lock-up

  1. That IS quite the shave job, isn't it?! Poor hairless Tycho!
    Seems like he is doing really well, good dog!
    And oh Keepler, if only you could contain your hormones you would not be going in for the big snip... :)
