Ongoing saga of our latest family member, Dexter (see Nov. 2007)-
Dexter was recently hit by a car, which left him with a fractured hip and shattered right leg. He spent a week and a half at the animal hospital, where they had to remove his right leg, as it was beyond repair. They said his fractured hip would heal on its own.
We brought him home, and he has been slowly starting to get around more, as he heals up. We keep him in our den, and take him out several times a day for "potty breaks" and just to get some fresh air.
So here we are, with a dog who adopted us in the last year, and now he's a "tripod", with 3 legs and a healing hip. I often wonder what purpose God has in bringing Dexter to us, esp. now that he's disabled. Lisa said, "He must be meant to teach us something, or bless us in some way."
The little saga continues...

Comment on Dexter: As an amputee myself I know it's better to not have a leg than to be constantly in pain. God has blessed me in so many ways it's unbelievable. I know God uses pets to enrich our lives and even though Dexter is limited somewhat, he will definitely impact your family in ways you never thought of. Love you guys!
