look who's back...!!!
It's the triumphant return of Albert the Super Beagle!!!
After what the vet referred to as "major dental surgery", Mister Albert is back on the couch where he belongs. And we're pretty surprised at how the little dude has bounced back. I remember getting 2 wisdom teeth pulled. I was on Tylenol 3's for 3 days and in swollen agony for almost a week.
Albert had 7 teeth pulled, including 2 canines on one side and molars and premolars that were shattered. That's some major tooth removal. And guess what? Albert is taking it in stride, wolfing down his soft food, frolicking in the backyard with his beagle friends and resting comfortably on his beagle bed. You wouldn't know this guy had just come home from the vet.
Big thank you to Marna and B.O.B for paying the whopping vet bill (saving beagles is NOT cheap!), and to Mathew and Ruby Sue (2 of Marna's own rescue beagle success stories) for the moral support (they are seriously 2 of the cutest beagles I have ever seen...see for yourself!)
Albert is going to spend the rest of the weekend chilling out, going for a couple of low key walks through the 'hood, and feasting on a variety of different wet foods to keep up his strength. He's on an anti-inflammatory, a pain killer and antibiotics to help keep him comfortable and infection free. And he has 2 beagle friends who are caring for his every need (including a little brotherly love on the couch!).
