Milestone: Stairs

We have set up a GoFundMe for Dino's veterinary expenses.

Hi everyone,

Just a short update today, as Dino continues to do well!

Last night we gave the stairs a try, and Dino did great. I expected up to be easy and down to be hard, but it was actually the opposite; Dino seems to have made a little system for going down with his body angled at a slow pace, but going up he needs a boost to get his back end up the stairs. But we got up and down twice without incident! He was very pleased to be back in our bedroom and closer to his routine. I think we all slept the best we have in weeks last night.

In addition to the stairs, Dino is now getting himself on and off the couch with ease, and is laying on his stump more and more. We are so happy with how recovery is going!

We thought we might take a little car ride today, but he seemed very tired so we opted to wait, to avoid the possibility of any accidents.

That's all for now, please enjoy a couple of photos of the big guy below.

Laying on the couch - he loves that pillow so much, and he puts it over his face himself.

Made it to the bedroom, but not happy about the cone.

Dino loves pillows. Even though we slept in our room last night, we have left the spare bed in our living room, just in case.
