Maxine has Surgery

Maxine had to have surgery this week on her leg! She somehow scraped her paw, probably at daycare, right where there was no muscle just bone and tendon. She couldn't leave it alone so she ended up making it worse. 

She is now on pain meds, antibiotics and has this little cast with the sunshine on it. Very cute!

They also found a heart irregularity which we will have to follow-up with once she heals from her paw. They say this is common in older athletic breeds.

Max has been on bed rest and will continue to be for another week at least. We were going to take her to Santa Cruz with us this weekend but she really can't go. 

She goes to the doctor today to get the bandage changed and perhaps get the sutures out.

Meanwhile, she can't figure out why we won't let her run!
