Rajah is spared the knife!

It's a miracle. Rajah was scheduled for surgery today. However, the vet said the troublesome spot on his hip has fully healed. All that remains is a tiny scab. It would have been a minor procedure, with local anesthesia and a sedative. It would also have set us back about $400. Amazingly, Rajah has been spared! This dog out dates Jesse; he's my old college roommate. I love him like a best friend, who occasionally pees on my floor. We've all had friends like that:). As I typed that last night, Raj just cruised in, licked my elbow, and took off the patrol the kitchen and hassle his little sister, Liloo. Though $400 is a large sum, I would have gladly paid it to ensure his health. This dog is a soul mate! I doubt he even realizes he is a dog. He's quite excited about becoming a fur uncle. He is fascinated with my growing belly, or maybe it's the perpetual layer of crumbs that rests on it that has his full attention. Can you blame him?
