This past Saturday, Sasha woke up very happy and very spunky. She was being very vocal, and was acting super excited to go outside. After she had been outside for a few minutes, I asked her if she wanted her ‘frisbee’ (Kong Flying disk). Since her re-diagnosis, we have not been playing with her in ways that cause her to run for fear that her bones might fracture. That concern was still with us on Saturday, but Sasha’s enthusiasm won us over. We could not tell her, no.
I called the other dogs inside so as to prevent potential collisions in all the excitement. Argus got to stay out because three-legged Sasha is faster than he is and can maneuver more quickly than him, too. Check out this video…
Sasha continues to surprise and amaze us. I believe that one day, thanks to Dr. Mason, Sasha and the other dogs in the Mason Bone Cancer Study, lives will be improved.
Thanks for sharing. Glad to see Sasha is happy and continues to do well. She made my day today!
That was so great to see! Go Sasha!!!
C&L I have followed your story for some time now. I check in from time to time to see how Sasha is doing. This being my first post. I want to start by saying you guys are such loving parents and I now understand why Sasha has fought so hard to stay with you. It’s been a while since you have given an update and I hope all is well. I almost feel like she is part of our family. Best wishes
Dear Giulio, Thank you for the kind message. We love our dogs very much, and we’ll fight for them in any way we can. They would do the same for us 🙂 Sasha has been going through some ups and downs recently, but we are not sure exactly what is going on. She has been to our local vet for Xrays, and was at NC State today. We will have a post up soon to update everyone on Sasha’s condition. I’m sorry that we have not been writing consistently. Our good intentions don’t always translate into action. Thank you again for writing.
