Family Photos Are Back!!

Thank you so very much to Lucy B. Photography for helping me capture my big boy's beauty! <3

Happy 8 Months, Kingsley!

8 Funny Memories

8. Getting a walnut stuck in his cone

7. Spontaneous moments of galloping through the house (not the puppy zoomies!)

6. Stealing the pillow (laying his head on it) seconds before someones ready to sleep on it

5. Walking around with his treat "savoring" it for 15 minutes

4. Falling out of bed

3. Snobbing people off in public when they sneak pets

2. Burping in my sisters face then walking away

1. After being caught sucking on the corner of a pillow he immediately flopped into a side position and winked at me in a frozen dead position!! 

Proud to be an American! That's Kingsley :)

Kingsley did his American duty today, and accompanied me to our local poll to vote in the presidential 2012 election!

Busy weekend

Kingsley is doing great, and since being released to ease back into work has continued to improve.  His gait is still a bit off but the vet said to give him time, so I am!  He is eager to work, but hesitant to go from standing to sitting and sometimes seems to not be able to at all.  He's been playing ALL weekend though with his friends Dexter and Terp over, so I think he's more sore than usual.  

Here he is with Dexter, who is a great play mate - they have very similar play styles!  They play for hours while Macchiato naps away :)

Family Photoshoot!!

Kingsley and I have a little family photoshoot today with Lucy B. Photography at a beautiful farm in Mount Joy!  When we get some photos back i'll be sure to share them!

Easing Back into Training

Kingsley has done well getting back into the swing of things.  We've been pretty busy but I wanted to post a picture from this morning when I dropped my fork and cued "Leave it!"  He complied and fell asleep next to it!  Love him so much!

Finally groomed again!

Kingsley was finally able to go get groomed again, and of course it was smack in the middle of Hurricane/Storm Sandy!!  Luckily the worst of the rain had passed, so we were able to get in and out without getting drenched!  Kingsley LOVES his groomer so much!  He just watches her talk and wags his tail!  She did a great job, and his injury blends in now so well!  She said he was a bit more fidgety than normal, but that she expected that with his long break from grooming.  His top knot had to be cut down a bit from a spot the cone matted, but otherwise my mom kept him brushed great!

On the recovery front i've been letting him play as he wishes and over all he's walking the same.  Barring weight but his gaits still a bit off.  I've also noticed him arch his back, so i'm keeping a close eye on that incase it isn't just from using the muscles again.
