Well, I just picked Peanut up from the Vet's office and brought him home.  He was so excited to be home that I was afraid he was going to jump out of my arms before I could get him safely inside.  When he heard and saw the rest of the dogs, it was all I could do to keep him contained, lol. 

Doc came out and was grinning from ear to ear again and was telling me more about Peanut's injuries and such.  He said that when he was attacked, BOTH of his pectoral muscles (under what I call his "armpits" and across his chest) were completely severed.  He said one of the AMAZING things about it is that these particular muscles rarely heal properly and even more rarely heal in the right alignment.  Well, both Peanut's pectoral muscles have not only healed, but aligned perfectly!  And in such a short time!  Doc said the speed at which he is healing in general is also amazing and pretty much has him scratching his head.  He just kept using the word "amazing" and said he was also amazed at the rate of healing between last Friday and yesterday.  I know what he means, because I could see right away that his right leg, the one that has skin missing, had healed considerably since yesterday. 

So.......between writing a check and getting kisses from Peanut, I proceeded to tell Doc that there was a great network of internet friends praying for Peanut and he said, "That's the explanation, then.  Because I can't give you a logical one".  "That's an AMAZING little dog you've got there". 

You know what I think is amazing?  The power of prayer and all you guys who have been sending all those prayers and positive energy Peanut's way.  I've made a point to pet him often and when I do, I think of all of you and your comments and support and wish that energy to come thru me to him.  I guess it works, huh? 

He still has a couple of trouble spots that Doc will be watching, but he grinned and said that if he continues to heal as he has, those spots will most likely heal also. 

I can't thank you all enough for your support for our little Blogstream Miracle Dog!  Not only is he healing at an alarming rate, he is also warming up to being touched and petted.  He seems to trust us so much more.  And he's happy!  Thanks, everybody and keep those prayers coming until Mr. Amazing is romping and playing with the other dogs, which will be soon!  We love you all!

I know I’m leaving so many out, but my poetry skills only go so far.  I’m just in a silly mood and needed an outlet, so please refrain from throwing tomatoes and such, okay?  Thanks. 

Oh, I just got an email and PICTURES from “Satchel’s” new family!  I gotta post these adorable pictures!

Little "Satchel" lookin adorable!

Biting off more than he can chew, lol.  Look at the size of that cat!

And all tuckered out in his bed (awww!).  Shhhhhh.......

Peanut is out of surgery and Doc says he is still sleeping, but doing very well.  I'll go by and see him later today.  Just wanted to do a quick update and thank all of you once again for your continued prayers, positive energy and support!!!  What a great group of friends we have here and we love you all!!

Further update:  I've been by to see Peanut and he was looking great!  He was excited to see me and his tail was wagging a mile a minute.  His leg looks so much better without that big gaping hole and he was resting comfortably (at least til he saw me, lol).  I wish the other leg was as easy to fix, but at this point, I'm tickled that Doc could at least do as much as he has.  I gave him (Peanut, not Doc) a peck on the head for everybody here on the stream and pet him for a few minutes.  He will come home tomorrow.

The sun is shining, Peanut is okay and I'm a happy puppy!  If I start getting grumpy, all I gotta do is go see Polar Bear's post for today.  It works every time!  lol
