Chico!

Yah, yah, yah… I didn’t last long before slacking off on my posting schedule, but these are crazy times and, well… I don’t really have an excuse 🙂

I don’t have a recipe for you today, but I do have something even better. Chico! Chicopotamus, Chicasaurus-Rex, Chico de Gallo, Cheeky Boy… he goes by a lot of names around here, but he definitely also answers to Good Boy, because that’s what he is!

He loves to snuggle with his big brother Elmie

Aren’t they cute!? Chico came as a foster from the Dumb Friends League back in February. He was about to have surgery for a torn ligament in his back leg, and need a home to convalesce in, who could also give him some physical therapy. The whole process went really well, and just as he was about done… he tore that same ligament in his other leg! So he had the surgery again, on the other leg, last Thursday. Here he is 2 days after, when he was able to come home:

You can see the bruising around the incision site. He’s doing really well though, walking on that leg more and more each day. He doesn’t enjoy having it iced but luckily starting today we are transitioning from the bag of frozen corn to a heating pad. And he has been really good about letting me do his stretches.

He is such a sweet and gentle boy, I love him so much. And, of course, I have an adoption hold on him so as soon as he is all healed from this surgery (~3 months, give or take), he will officially join the pack! Although let’s face it… as far as he is concerned, he’s already official ❤️

Having these two good boys has made this whole process of staying home all the time So. Much. Better. I know a lot of people struggle with staying home, especially those who live alone as I do, but as an introvert it doesn’t bother me too much. I mean, okay sure, maybe I have a few too many conversations with the dogs, but that’s okay. They are very good listeners!

I hope you’re all doing okay, too!
