Just checking in :)

Sorry I haven’t been on here in a while !   I just wanted to check in with an update and again express to everyone here how much I appreciate your encouraging feedback and comments <3

Brady is doing amazing since his amputation due to a bad break to his right front leg.  I swear he runs faster with 3 legs than he did with 4 ! LOL

My husband and I are still very cautious with Brady as to not injure his only front leg…..being sure he doesn’t jump, run too fast, not taking him on walks too far just yet and easing him into things…….despite Brady being anxious and wanting to be his crazy energetic self 🙂     For the most part we aren’t obsessing and are SO happy he has recovered so well and resumed to a normal life.

He has put on a bit of weight   (but his diet has been adjusted so it doesn’t become a problem)       due to him not being able to be as active since his injury in October 2014  and the horrid winter we have had causing walks with him to be too cumbersome for him…….again, we don’t want to risk any injury……

Thankfully the weather is getting better.  Brady has “cabin fever” for sure !  As do we ! LOL………..but he has been having a blast running around in the snow we have had with no issues 🙂

We are looking forward to getting back out with him for our daily long walks and weekend hikes now that the warmer weather is coming and the streets are finally cleared.

We will soon be purchasing a harness from this site.  I have tried to “mickey mouse” something out of a harness we already have , but I can see by the workmanship, the harness advertised here is the best and will be well worth the money.  I know the “handle”  on the harness   to help him in and out of the car and to get around when needed  will be a huge PLUS as well.

This IS such a great site !!!!!   I can’t say it enough <3

Thanks again everyone !!!!!!!!!

If anyone would like to connect with me and I haven’t been on here ………please don’t hesitate to email me at my personal email :  sbaton42@gmail.com………..I would LOVE to connect 🙂

Sending Much Love & Hope out to those having to deal with much more challenging situations than me xo

With Gratitude,

Brady’s Mom, Sheryl 🙂

Brady 3 2015  1

Author: sbaton4brady

I am Sheryl and I live in MA with my hubby and our almost 3 year old Miniature Pincher Brady. On 10/12/14 he had a bad break to his front right leg as a result of a freak accident at home. Unfortunately after about 2 months of being in a cast the leg did not heal properly. On 12/3/14 Brady had surgery to amputate his leg. It was a very nerve wracking time but we were blessed that he was young and healthy when this happened. Words cannot express how appreciative I am of all the feedback and support I have gotten from this site. I continue to enjoy reading about your furry friends / hero's and experiences. I am so thankful to have stumbled upon this website while google searching what I could about animal amputees <3 SO much information here as well as so many great pawrents and tripawds <3

  1. GRRRRRRREAT UPDATE!!! HUGE SMILE ON MY FACE 🙂 🙂

    Recovery…not so much fun….watching the sparkle come back after recovery…..PRICELESS!!!!

    LOVING THESE PICTURES!!!!! This little Brady is nust so darn cute!!

    K want to thank you for your k k nd words regarding my Hap p y Hannah and others who have transitioned. That was very thoughtful of you…especially during your scary time.

    I adopted a tripawd in January, about 1..1 1/2 yrs. old. He practically gives me a heart attack with his crazy antics of jumping OVER the rails of HANNAH’S ramp, jumping off my high bed without giving me a chance to help him…and on and on! I’m doing everything possible to protect that front leg and, at the same time, let him play full out and enjoy life!! .As you know, hard to balance that! You and your husband are doing a stellar job though!!!

    Keep these great updates and ADORABLE pictures coming!

    Love to all!

    Sally and Alumni Happy Hannah and Merry Myrtle too! And Frankie the tripawd!

  2. Ohhh look at that Brady, you can tell how hoppy he is! And you too, I can totally hear a sense of relief in your tone.

    You are doing all the right things by managing his weight and his activity. Good job Ma!

    As for the Webmaster…yep! We think it’s the best for sure. Tripawd-Tested for seven years now. You might want to look in our Angel Exchange to see if there’s one that might fit Brady, people are always so generous and giving their harnesses away after their pup has gone to the Bridge, so hop over and see if there’s one.

    Hugs hugs and more hugs, we’re so glad you updated.
