The lovely Mocha...


...has ruptured his right cruciate ligament (in his knee) and needs surgery :-(

The good news is...it doesn't seem to be hurting him.

The bad news is....ACC/Medical Insurance won't cover it lol.

We have to make a decision about what type of surgery to go for by Monday afternoon. The options are expensive or very expensive. DH is very cynical about why the vet might be recommending the very expensive one.

Watch this space...meanwhile he is on 'kennelrest' (aka bedrest) That's hard when you are an 11 month old puppy but he is coping remarkably well.

Here is a photo of Taylor learning about blogging.

Poor Mocha, will he be OK if he has the surgery.

You can't start them too early nowadays, computers and all!
