The dog of steel...

Well, Timber did fine through his tooth surgery this morning and thankfully it was only the one tooth that was cracked.

I will be able to pick him up later this afternoon, which makes me very happy to have our Bubba home tonight. Yes, that's one of his many nicknames like the dog of steel.

Last night, I called him the dog of steel.  We have had Timber in our lives going on 9 years as of this coming 4th of July.

We don't have any ideas of what his first 5years of life were like, but I truly believe once he got here with us he has been a happy boy.

So, the reason I now call him "Steel" not just because of his fur color, but he has been through so much with his health. He sure has fight in him to make it through all of his procedures over the past 9 years.

And just to let you know when we had to take him to Cornell one time, he's a very special boy because he is the only dog here to get a r-I-d-e in daddy's truck.(No doggies are allowed in daddy's truck, just mommy's kennel on wheels as daddy calls it.)

We always say there will never be another rescue dog in our lives like him.

He is very, very mellow for a Siberian husky, which makes him so lovable.

Even though he is getting older and his back legs are on the weak side, he still has stubbornness

in him.  He knew this morning when mommy put the leash on where he was going and was a stinker about getting in the car to go to the v-e-t.  I finally got him in and then he was a stinker about getting out at the v-e-t's office.  So, that just showed me once again he still has fight in him.

So, in a couple of hours I will be bringing him home and we will keep you all posted on our old guy.

Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers for him!
