Memphis the Husky needs surgery. Yup, Memphis the husky decided to make our lives even more interesting. She blew out her rear left knee and needs TTA surgery. Knee surgery is actually very common in dogs! It's not something we have ever been through, but I guess there is a first time for everything!
Well
Guess what we're doing today guys. You're right. You make it don't fall off
You're gonna lean that way and then you're gonna fall off into the bed of this.
I do miss Memphis
She's like guys
Today sucks. Well, technically yesterday
So you can see she's kind of favoring her leg. You can see the title of today's video
Memphis has to have surgery. Hi Kira. No wrestling in here. This is the recovery room
I was talking to Memphis. You guys are being so good and then you decided to do this. Hold on. I'm gonna get you out of here.
Okay, I think everybody has their spot picked. Look at all the dog beds.
So a couple weeks ago
I put up a video talking to you guys about how Memphis had to go to the emergency vet and I never really updated you
Afterwards I did on a community post but a lot of you may have missed it of what
Actually happened because of that and what we found out
Memphis ended up having an endoscopy done and they found out that she had a stomach ulcer
So she's been on medications for stomach ulcer for about the past month or so. She's doing really good this Monday
She's supposed to be going to have that rechecked. So anyway
yesterday
She decided to make things even more interesting. Didn't ya? She's like guys
I just wanted to make things even more interesting than before
So, I don't know if you saw in the beginning of the video Memphis was kind of favoring her rear left leg
Yesterday we were all outside playing. All of us. We were all outside. These two dogs were digging
This dog decided to go investigate the hole which you guys have seen her do many many times and then she got excited
She started doing her little Memphis zoomies where she was kind of running around a little bit and she ran a little bit away
From us. She was kind of behind the a-frame. We couldn't really see her. Jamie could see her, but I couldn't really see her and
she
Kind of let out a whimper and started limping and we weren't really sure why
These two dogs were nowhere near her. So nobody bumped into her. We watched it back on our camera
She didn't fall. She didn't slip. She was kind of just doing her little Memphisy prance and she hurt her leg
So, of course we gave her about half an hour or 45 minutes because I don't know how many of you have dogs that have
You know seen a dog kind of bump something or bend something funny
Sometimes they'll limp for a little bit and then you kind of massage it out and they're like, okay
It's not as bad as I thought and then they're fine
Happens all the time like all the time that's happened with all of the dogs
But this we ended up carrying her in the house. We massaged it a little bit
We were trying to figure out where exactly she hurt
We thought her foot was hurt because she really didn't want us to touch her foot
At one point in time. We're like, maybe she had stung by a bee. Maybe she stepped on a bee or something
So anyway, we gave it a little bit of time decided
You know what? We're just gonna take her into the vet because it was Friday
We knew that they were there called them up. They got her in within like 45 minutes
So I didn't even have to do an emergency appointment, which was kind of nice
got her in and
They started checking her out started doing all the things and
Sure enough. I can actually insert a little clip if you guys don't want to see it skip ahead a few seconds
But I'll insert a little clip of what dr. Ryan found
Good job silly girl
So as you can see
Her knee is moving like it's not supposed to
He was pretty sure that she had a full ACL tear. So he did an x-ray and sure enough
Miss Memphis at nine and a half years old
Blew out her rear left knee. Did you blow out your knee?
She's like guys. I'm just I'm okay like okay. She's on some medication right now
So she's feeling she's feeling pretty good. Are you feeling pretty good?
So anyway blew out her rear left leg left knee
full ACL tear
So Monday she was supposed to go in for her
Endoscopy endoscopy, whatever you guys call it. You know what I'm talking about?
She was gonna go in for that to get her ulcer recheck
So as I was sitting there with dr. Ryan, which is actually the doctor that does her surgery and her endoscopes
He said he could actually do the knee surgery on Monday as well
so
The plan is she's gonna go in on Monday
They're gonna make sure that her ulcer is completely healed which hopefully it is we're paws crossed that it is and
Then they're gonna do knee surgery and it's a six-week recovery
She's gonna have limited mobility for six weeks
So we've basically turned the office into the recovery room. What do you think of that?
It's not so bad. I hang out in here
Anyway, this was originally a futon that we had in here
We actually just my husband took it apart put the mattress on the floor
So it's like a big giant dog bed that we can sleep on and then we have some spirit hoods dogs dog beds
We have another dog bed. We have another dog bed. We have more dog beds than we have dogs
But we made it super comfy
There's a TV in here and then a lot of the times I work from in here so she can hang out with me
What do you think?
Yeah, I know is it craziness
It's craziness, huh? So yeah, it kind of just happened it happens happens in a lot of dogs
Unfortunately, it's more common than you would think it's not something we've ever experienced
But I have a lot of friends that have gone through it
So I've been talking to a lot of people about what to do and where we go from here
So she'll have surgery. She'll have a six-week recovery. I talked to some of you guys yesterday
I didn't make any posts on it
I wanted to wait until today to make a full post on it
So I could kind of compose myself and figure out what was going on
There will be some links down in the video description below there is new Memphis merch you guys haven't seen that yet
There's fluffy land cloud merch of Miss Memphis is something I said in a vlog and you guys thought it was great
So we made merch out of it
I'll put that link down below and there will be a gofundme link down below as well
Now that being said Memphis's surgery costs will be covered
We're doing the gofundme because a lot of you guys have asked, you know, how can we help?
So we thought we would start the gofundme and basically what will happen with that is some of the money will go back into the
Dog's emergency vet fund that we have for them and then some of it
We will pay it forward and we will help out some other animals in need
In fact, one of my friends just found two ditch kittens the other day that are probably gonna need a little bit of help
I'll put a picture of them up here
So we're gonna kind of see what they need and maybe go forward and help them out a little bit as well
Please do not feel like you have to donate to the gofundme watching the videos sharing the videos is
More than enough help from you guys
but anybody that feels like they want to just know
Some of the money will go to the girls vet fund and some of the money
We will pay it forward and help out some other animals in need because you know, everybody needs some help
Sometimes you look so comfy right now
Sprawled out on this big old bed. It's brought out on this big old bed
So all of that being said
we had
Half a month or so of trips that we had planned and we kind of had to cancel all of them because she can't do
anything for six weeks
so life just got
Interesting or boring. I don't know how you would want to say that
We're kind of just gonna hang out with Memphis for the next six weeks and help her recover. What do you think of that?
She's like, I'm good guys. I'm good. You're about ready for breakfast. I know I could smell it in there
So as always if you guys want to follow along more with what is going on
We will still be uploading to our vlog channel four days a week, which is at youtube.com slash snow dogs vlogs
So you can kind of see the progress of everything that she goes through
I will be making some update videos here after the surgery
I'll I kind of want to do something about how she's gonna be doing some physical therapy and kind of show that to you guys
If that's something you're interested in
I know some of you may have never gone through this and some of you may be watching this and
Be going through the same thing
So I think it would be good to be able to put up some content
So you guys can kind of see what we're going through and how we're dealing with it again. She's okay
She's she's being taken care of she's okay
That is the most important thing right say that is the most important thing guys is that I'm I'm comfortable and I'm okay
And I'm just taking up this entire giant bed, even though there's like, you know other and you're on the floor
You just want to be as close to me as you can be
There's all these dog beds in here and you're like mom. Why are you talking to that dog?
I'm a I'm a fussy boy. You're talking and then of course miss Kira miss Kira has been
Very concerned about Memphis right before I started filming
She was snuggled up to her so hard and that's pretty much how she's been
She'll snuggle her and then she goes and does her own thing and then she comes back and snuggles her
So I have now rambled for way too long in a video. What do you think say mom? Stop talking feed us breakfast
But anyway, that's the update again
if you guys want to follow our vlog channel or our other social sites where we'll probably do a little bit more real-time updates because
It's easier than doing on YouTube
