No, I am not talking about a Tech or UGA player...it's our very own Belue. Our vet thinks she has a torn ACL and we have to go to a specialist soon for a MRI on the back right knee. Surgery is probable and we aren't sure about rehab...but we hope to have her back at full strength for Spring Practice!Yes, it's always something with these dogs. All I can do is shake my head...my dog has an injury that most of us relate to athletes. She thinks she one too - this dog has no clue she is supposed to be fat and lazy. Instead she loves to run and jump and will go for hours if you let her. Trying to keep her somewhat still these days is tricky.
Belue may not be the only one having surgery. I went to my 35 wk appt yesterday and another ultrasound confirms that Baby D is still enjoying the head up/ booty down position. She has not budged in over 4 weeks. We have a little more time for her to move before we have to make a final decision about a C section. If we do have to go that route, I will be scheduled for the week of Nov 13th, as that is one week prior to my due date. Obviously this is not how I "planned" for things to go but all I want is a healthy baby girl so we'll do whatever is necessary and/or safest for her arrival. We do have the option of trying external version and we will decide on that very soon.
Hope everyone enjoys the rest of their week. And Happy Birthday to my little bro...19 this Sunday. YIKES!

I've been wondering if Little Miss D had decided to turn or not. There is still a little time but whatever happens, you are right on the money - it doesn't matter how she comes into the world, just that she is healthy.
