THIS IS SKIPPY. HE WAS PUT TO SLEEP ON SEPTEMBER 25, 1999

Skippy is Laurie's mom's dog and he is 15 years old. Recently he had dislocated his hip and Doctors had to reset it back. Now he has his leg in a sling and has to walk around on three legs till it heals. Isn't he cute? We both love him and feel sorry for him.
GOOD NEWS::::Skippy has had the sling removed and he is doing great.
UPDATED JUNE 9,1999
Laurie has found out from her mom that Skippy is now a diabetic. He needs to have insulin shots twice daily. When Laurie heard that she thought that Skippy would be very hard to give the shots to, but her mom says he looks forward to them and lets her do them with no problem.I guess he knows that it will make him feel better:-))
UPDATED SEPTEMBER 28, 1999
Skippy was put to sleep on September 25, 1999. My mom called me on Sunday evening and told me. With his diabetes he was going to the bathroom all the time. We all know that he is in a better place and will never feel anymore pain. He will be greatly missed by all of us that knew him as he was a GREAT dog.
