Wiska is fine

Poor Wiska was diagnosed with laryngeal paralysis. I noticed that he had lost his voice. We thought at first that he had just barked himself hoarse at the kennel. No such luck. He just had  a surgery to tie part of is larynx back to keep it open. This will prevent him from choking to death if he gets an inflammation. He was a very good boy when Mom and I took him to the specialty clinic for his surgery. Lately he's been so afraid of going to the vet that he has pooped in the waiting room (clean up on aisle 3 lol). Poor guy. The vet called yesterday afternoon and he came through with flying colors. I probably won't see any difference in how he breathes, but this is because he wasn't having any problems before. I didn't want to wait for a crisis to have the surgery done. The surgery was actually easier than most because usually Dr. Bruce will have to do it on an obese labrador - which is difficult. Excess body fat is not one of Wiska's problems. I'm looking forward to picking him up today.
