After a week of being super careful in his sling, my dog's shoulder has dislocated again, and he's in for surgery this morning.
This obviously isn't the outcome anyone wanted but we are determined to make the rest of his life as happy as possible even if he won't be able to run like before. They will cut out part of his bicep and stitch it up and across the shoulder to help secure the joint.
The dog behind him in the queue, at seven years old, was in for a kidney removal but had had four knee reconstructions previously. He seemed happy despite everything.
