I just wanted to type a quick post thanking each and everyone one of you for your quick responses, support, and help!! It is great to finally have a dog board that I can go to where people care as much about their animals as I do. All of you are just AWESOME!! Thanks again!!

:Hi all. I just wanted to share with ya'll our visit to the University of Florida vet medicine teaching hospital. I took Black Jack for a second opinion about his OCD lesion. The hospital there is awesome and the students and vets are great. The vet agreed with the OCD lesion diagnosis and said that they had an opening for surgery today, so I left Black Jack down in Gainsville, FL yesterday. The problem was, I wasn't planning on leaving him and I hadn't prepared myself for it and the whole time we were there I was promising Black Jack that I wasn't leaving him...Well, I just felt awful when I had to leave him there. I cried and cried, I just wasn't ready for this yet, I guess. So, anyway, I just wanted to share with you all, and ask for your thoughts and prayers. I hope to be able to pick him up either Saturday or Monday. A senior student will be calling me at least twice a day to let me know how Black Jack is doing. We live in Valdosta, GA so I'm about a hour and forty minutes away from him. Wish us the best!! Thanks!!
