Quite a Week!

Macy and her foster house have had quite a week!

The first few days after Macy's surgery seemed to be textbook perfect, but something had changed, and Macy seemed to become uncomfortable over the weekend. We checked in with the great team at AEC on Monday, and they were able to make her feel about 1000% better. She is back to being charming and lovely and snuggly, and she just loves being with her people! 

We love to give Macy lots of attention, but a recent development has meant that coddling is out of the question: her foster sister had to have emergency spinal surgery on Monday and is now on very strict rest restrictions. She must be carried everywhere, and we need to watch carefully to make sure that she does not run into anything, and that no one runs into her. Our little girl is really hurting, and we all need to protect her.

I am amazed that Macy seems to understand all of this, even though she cannot see us. She just seems to sense that although I would love to scoop her up, she needs to find her own way—because I am already carrying one dog, and I cannot carry two.

As long as Macy is near me, though, she is fine with whatever is happening around her. She is cheerful and respectful, and really just a delight. Everyone melts when visiting with Macy. She just brings out the best in people.

More photos soon!
