What an amazing pup he has turned out to be! He LOVES to play - to the point of driving Manny and Aiko crazy!! He is a MAD kisser, almost drowns you with affection.<br />He is going to have his Penn Hip xrays done tomorrow. He had his heart certification done last week - complete with echocardiogram - and he has a GREAT heart! Sam and I measured him at the withers tonight and got three measurements, all between 29 and 30 inches. His weight last week at the cardiologist's was 97 lbs. He is a very big, lean boy.<br /><div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6430567380625302982-571867655949020376?l=solaceschampagnesupernova.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Terry and Samhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18057516015385282970noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6430567380625302982.post-40032438455206744342009-06-03T17:55:00.000-07:002009-06-03T18:06:32.821-07:00May 24th and 25th - Maumee State Park, Ohio<div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Gah2TEjUSWc/SicczQYl0VI/AAAAAAAAB_M/IJCCYeXddOU/s1600-h/047.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Gah2TEjUSWc/SicczQYl0VI/AAAAAAAAB_M/IJCCYeXddOU/s320/047.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5343271149795397970" /></a> Nova went to his first show May 24 and 25 in Ohio.

He ended up having 10 inches of small bowel removed. Sam and I brought him home two days later, this is his first day back home. He had to stay essentially crate bound for 10 days - going out on leash every couple of hours followed by small bland meals. To this day we are not sure what caused his intussusception - the usual causes are 1. chronic diarrhea 2. Parasite infestation 3. Foreign body obstruction. I post this to help anyone else who finds themselves in a simialr postion. Intussusception in when the small "telescopes" on itself. Sometimes it will reduce on its own. If it doesn't and is left untreated - the bowel can lose its blood supply and die, which will kill the puppy. It happens to puppies usually less than a year old. (the same thing can happen to human children usually around 18-24 months). </div><div> </div><div> </div><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Gah2TEjUSWc/SStoxy0Xo3I/AAAAAAAABUY/0sod1PsMKwI/s1600-h/100_0543.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5272422993431602034" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Gah2TEjUSWc/SStoxy0Xo3I/AAAAAAAABUY/0sod1PsMKwI/s320/100_0543.JPG" border="0" /></a> This is Nova today!! He got his staples removed and is doing great. The vet is now allowing us to start adding his regular food to the bland diet. As noted in his weight chart - he has only gained 0.4 lbs in 2 weeks, but boy has he grown! Now that his bowel has healed sufficiently, time to eat!!<br /><br /><div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6430567380625302982-5862010215879328890?l=solaceschampagnesupernova.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Terry and Samhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18057516015385282970noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6430567380625302982.post-84581818367773814372008-11-10T08:53:00.000-08:002008-11-10T09:00:07.496-08:00Nova 14 weeks....<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Gah2TEjUSWc/SRhn946F9CI/AAAAAAAABKs/5hCwGPzgM-w/s1600-h/100_0534.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5267074077155521570" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Gah2TEjUSWc/SRhn946F9CI/AAAAAAAABKs/5hCwGPzgM-w/s320/100_0534.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div></div><br />14 weeks old and boy am I GROWING!!!!

(Poor momma doesn't get much rest these days!!!!)<br /><br /><br /><br />Note from Momma: Thank goodness for crate training!!! Nova is doing great. He now knows "sit" and is already learning "paw". He LOVES to retrieve, he will bring the ball back (working on the release still), sits and waits for us to throw the ball again. He is quite the extrovert, loves everyone and everything he comes in contact with!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6430567380625302982-6517594310044128668?l=solaceschampagnesupernova.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Terry and Samhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18057516015385282970noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6430567380625302982.post-82473458391186560542008-10-07T06:46:00.001-07:002008-10-07T07:34:55.060-07:00Nova turned 9 weeks old yesterday!<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Gah2TEjUSWc/SOtpHLV3T9I/AAAAAAAABBM/Lx_Bf2znQMA/s1600-h/100_0487.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5254408962282311634" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Gah2TEjUSWc/SOtpHLV3T9I/AAAAAAAABBM/Lx_Bf2znQMA/s320/100_0487.JPG" border="0" /></a> Here is Nova at 9 weeks old!
