Lexi the Tripod


Hi I am Lexi a little Chihuahua. My mom found me on the road near her house in pretty bad shape as an abandoned and injured dog. I have had 3 major surgerys this past Thanksgiving week and have cost my new owner alot of money (she is taking donations to offset the costs). I losy my leg as part of the injurys that I sustained before my mom took me in, it was a progressive injury from a fractured pelvis. I walked with a limp initially and then finally I couldn't walk at all so my new mom took me to the Vet and got me all fixed up. I have decided to start a blog so all my new friends from the Firehouse Animal Hospital and my new family can watch my progress on this amazing road to recovery.
This first week I have been spayed and had my leg amputation, my bladder was unfortunatly nicked in surgery so I had to have that repaired as well. The doctors really didn't mean to do it, there was just so much being done. The doctors have been really great to me. I am pretty much just resting this week, I had to be cut open again the day after thanksgiving because I was not going to the bathroom and they found a clot that they needed to flush out. I am going to the bathroom now though and all seems to be back on track. I am given alot of medication to keep me from feeling too much.
If you want to make donations to help with my cause you can go to paypal and make a donation to venombarbie@hotmail.com
If you want more pictures I have those too!
