Buster's Back!!
Since Buster's recovery, he has become my
"velcro" dog. He knows who cares for him.

Buster came to me in November of 1998 at age
9 years old. As a volunteer for Boykin Spaniel Rescue, I took
him in as a foster dog.

I started noticing Buster would not lift his
leg to urinate. Then, he began to drag his back feet. Off to
the vet we went. Buster had back surgery to repair a herniated
disk.

The next day I received the call that surgery
indeed had been performed. Buster was recovering and was doing
very well. What great news!! This is a close up view of the
surgical site.

One year and two months later, Buster is as
good as ever. Here he is, enjoying a good roll on the carpet!
