So today Kate and I found out that Merlin has Hip Dysplasia . He’s not even two years old yet. And from what I’ve read dogs who develop it this early means they’ve been living with the chronic pain for a lot longer than the symptoms have been showing. I feel really bad that he’s been having to deal with this for so long….To say that I’m bummed really doesn’t even begin to describe it.

1Poor Merlin, I was sorry to read this in Kate’s journal.

2The bright side is that we caught it so early and we can do everything we can to make his life better and happier and more merlintastic.

3I hate to hear that, but from the pictures I see he is just as happy laying around in Jake’s lap as he he is figuring out how he can go snack on the little dog across the street.
