Karma


As you probably know, we have an interesting history with animals. Yasser had to have hip surgery on his left leg before his was year old. Malenovka has a chronic respiratory infection and sneezes everywhere. Cat boogers do not come off the wall easily.

What you probably don't know is that last week we did something really, really stupid. We got a puppy.
Isn't he the cutest thing ever?

His name is Moshe. It's a nice Israeli name. We figured it was appropriate. We thought we'd try to make a little peace here on the West Bank. We didn't tell anyone at first because it's that stupid.

Do you think you know where this story is going?
Last night the DH came home from work and took the dogs out to go to the bathroom. On his way back up Yasser tripped him and the puppy jumped from his arms. Moshe now looks like this

Yeah. He broke his leg. We spent most of last night at the emergency vet. Can you see the cast/band that wraps around his belly? They told us we'd might have to move it around so it didn't block his little penis. Well it did block it and we had to hold it back and cut it so that he could pee. We'll have the regular vet fix it today. His poor little penis was all bloated with pee. It was terrible. For now, we're just trying to keep him as immobile as possible. They said it should heal in about 4 weeks.
