Day 3 post amp
Sloane and I have been cooped up in the house since Thursday, we are both a little stir crazy, there is only so much couch time we can endure. So we decided it was time for a little field trip and figure out how we were going to be getting him into my car for Doggie day care Monday morning.
It took us a few times to get in but we found that grabbing the harness and with my other arm under his stomach for support hoisted him in to the FJ, we used the same method to get out at our destination.
The Wilco Farm Store…Yea…. This is one of his favorite haunts, every one knows Sloane and has been with us through all of our trials thus far. When he entered everyone came around to give my little amp boy loves and snacks and we were able to give them the final diagnostic of the Fibrotic Myopathy. I have a feeling that we over the course of time we will be able to educate more and more people on this icky condition. So I will have to due further learning to educate myself.
At the store Sloane picked out a large bone, a new jolly ball, a pig ear and a new box of organic, grain free treats. That he promised he would share with his brother Strom (Great Dane). At home we opened all the new goodies and have been spending time in the yard enjoying a beautiful day in the sun. Ice tea on the table and computer in hand all in all a successful day.

Sloane, that is the finest bone in the land! Come on ow, we know you didn’t share that fine bone with Strom! A grain free cookie treat?….Maybe—but not that bone!
So glad you had a little outing today and got to get lots of attention from your friends at the store. ‘Bet they were pretty impressed, huh?
You certainly seemed to be having one of the “smoother” recoveries than some others. That’s great, especially for such a big boy
Glad to get such a happy update on a beautiful dog having a beautiful day:-)
Enjoy the rewards of a hard day shopping!!
Sally and Happy Hannah!

What a story about Sloane and your journey so far! He is absolutely beautiful and you are ahead of the game because he is so healthy!!!
Harley is jealous of the bone, but recognizes the fact that his sister Sunny would steal it anyhow.
Welcome to being a tripawd…we are three months post amp ourselves, and you will find he will be back at your side hiking and running along soon.
Hugs!
