2 months later!
Hi everyone, Barret here!
I can’t believe that it has been 2 months since my amputation. It honestly feels like it was a long long time ago!
I had a really exciting time since my last post. I went swimming in my grandpa’s pool, although I think I prefer going to the creek so I can just wade around and try to catch the fishies, rather that swimming in the deep end.
My Grammie came up to visit me from Florida. She even said that next year when mom goes on a long vacation, she might come puppy sit my siblings and me. How exciting!
A really cool dog park opened up in my town, but I haven’t gone to visit it yet. Maybe next weekend. Still, the Beau Dream Park sounds like it will be soo much fun! I can’t wait to go!
Mom checks out where my arm used to be almost daily. She says she doesn’t see any sign of my cancer yet, so we hope I am in the clear. My hair is not really growing back though, and what did grow back is a different texture. I don’t mind, as long as I am healthy.
To celebrate my milestone, dad got out my red ball. I’ve been sleeping with it every night. Gosh, I don’t think I love anything more than my red ball, except maybe mom! We also went to the neighborhood park for a nice long walk since the weather has been really nice. I’ll talk to you guys later – good luck on everyone’s journey!

Sounds like you’re doing great, Barret! Keep it up!
Roxy’s fur has been coming back very slowly too, and it’s a different texture, like baby duck fuzz, but you’re right, as long as you’re healthy, who cares if you have a funny haircut 🙂
P.S. You look so cute in your lifejacket!

I can’t think of anything better than going for a swim and playing with my favorite toys. Hoppy Ampuversary Barret! You sure are looking great.
