A lifetime of affection and friendship: Priceless

So we've now had the Winni girl for a month or so and she's quite the expensive little pup. Today, we had our first emergency vet trip with her. She is a daredevil and not so coordinated and somehow she broke her leg playing in the backyard. We figure she was jumping off the chair and got her leg stuck and it broke. She's now in a splint and one of the cool collars aka satellite dish. She hasn't stopped whimpering since we got home from the doctor's office. We've got to keep her calm and basically immobile for 6 weeks to keep her from having surgery on the leg. I feel so bad for her, but can't do much for her. I'm not expecting to sleep too well tonight as I'm taking post on the couch near the whimpering dog. Occasionally she'll roll over or try to stand up and the crying begins. Wish me luck sleeping tonight.
