Thank you Alegria; Spooner is going to be ok but the moments when I wasn’t sure will linger for a long time.

From one fur Mom to another, the waves of visions never leave but do get smaller. We do our best and hope it is enough. I'm glad Spooner is ok. You will be too.

Thank you Judy for the kind words of encouragement. I think Spooner is more resilient than I am. Praying for no infections 💛

So hard! It reminds me of when Jane's dog attacked her. The agony is more in the heart than on the body. Sigh...

I should be clear that the dogs did not attack me, I jumped in the middle of it to help Spooner. The feelings are probably similar.

The rawest part of loving a creature who cannot speak is the crushing weight of having to be their entire defense against a world that doesn't understand their value. I feel this deeply ✨

I know this heartbreak - the strong pull to protect - the helplessness of when they are in trouble. Glad Spooner is going to be OK
