Boomer has been doing really well. We are so happy he's returned to himself more and more. However, with him returning to himself that means that he thinks that he can do everything before he had his surgery. He wants to be able to do the stairs and jump on the bed and go under the table. These are just all things that he just cannot do just yet. However, he's a little sneaker and ends up getting underneath the coffee table and then we make him lay on his side and slide him out so that he doesn't hit his staples when he gets out.
He does want to play with this toys and have you throw them the way he used to. But, his back legs just can't keep up with him, so we've just been throwing his toys just a small distance on the carpet so that he can keep his traction on the carpet.
Justin and I feel like we had a toddler in the house and we have to keep watching what he's doing and have to be super aware of where he is so he doesn't do something to hurt himself. Boomer has been very much baby training for us. I'm glad to say that Justin and I have been a great team throughout this whole process and I am happy that we have each other to lean on to go through this together.
Boomer goes back on Monday for his check up and to walk on the super special treadmill again and get his staples out. Here's how far his incision has healed:
His staples are looking good, but I think he'll be happy to get his staples out. We will find out what we need to be doing for him when we talk to the staff after his appointment on Monday.
But for now, his sweet face is back:
