So since I have been “in school” essentially working full time for free and my husband works full time and goes to school we have been leaving Khloe in the guest bedroom with her kennel, plenty of water, food, toys, her bed, a pee pad, and we put up a baby gate instead of closing the door that way she could still inter act with our other dog and not be so lonely.
Khloe has been shattering my previous thoughts about tripods. She was up running and playing within 24 hours of having her limb amputated, she keeps up with my 6 year old dog easily, she can climb on the couch and the coffee table (using my daughters little chair), and so much more that just keeps us amazed everyday.
Yesterday she went back to the shelter and was spayed, last night she couldn’t keep anything down and won over the heart of or other dog who took care of her. Today however my husband returned home in the afternoon to Khloe running from our bedroom instead of safely behind her baby gate. She had eaten all her food, drank all her water and emptied her kennel of all it’s contents and spread them around the room. Then some how proceeded to exit the room….
When I returned a few hours later I suspected she had climbed the baby gate but wanted to be sure so I put her back behind the gate, retreated to my bedroom across the hall and watched her. Sure enough that 3 legged dog climbed the baby gate! My husband picked her up when she was 1/2 way up the gate and sure to get out if she continued, we where both shocked and pleasantly surprised by this able bodied pup. She still walks and runs a little side ways but she sure is smart and when determined easily finds a way to get what she wants!
What a smart ‘lil cutie patootie! Its amazing how resilient pups are. Are you still fostering her or…. 😉
Khloe is just adorable. I have come to see that dogs are resilient after amp surgery (it’s been 3 wks and 2 days since Leland’s hind leg amp) and I would suspect puppies even more so. It’s amazing that Khloe has figured out how to climb the baby gate to escape into the house. Khloe is so fortunate to have found her way to you and your home.
Have fun while taking part in Khloe’s adventures.
