More barkday stuff and my staples are removed...
Watering the tomato and chilli plants
Here is yet more lovely barkday and get well stuff. I know that lots of you put cards and messages on your blogs about me so I'm really sorry if I've missed anyone out here:
From Koobuss:
From Georgeous:
George very kindly asked if he could buy me a birthday gift, but instead I asked him to make a donation to his favourite charity. Thanks pal, you're a real star!
Here's a jolly good stash from Eric. He prescribed peanut butter and plenty of it, for medicinal purposes, of course! He also sent a purple rubbery squirrel toy not shown in this photo, cos that was what J1 used to distract me while she was taking these pictures.
From my lovely non-blogging wirey pal, Angel and her mum, Sheri:
(Fab card! Why is he dressed like a lumberjack though?)
Pawsome gifts from Agatha & Archie...Can't WAIT to get my teeth into them...
These gifts were in a lovely Disney gift box with a Mickey & Pluto picture but I sort of ripped it up in my enthusiasm to get to the toys...
I went to the vet this morning to have those nasty staples taken out (BTW there were 22 of 'em not 21. J1 can't count). And guess what? They DO use a funny staple remover thing. They all came out quite easily apart from the very last one which was twisted, but I was superbrave and didn't flinch. Just barked afterwards. A lot.
J2 says I look like Sparky in the Tim Burton film, Frankenweenie with all his scars and stuff...
Marginally better than looking like FrankenStanley. I suppose. (Click here to remind yourself of the full horror).

Mistress can't write sensibly because she is in hysterics about your lumberjack comment.
Silly mistress.
I on the other hand am pleased your staple removal went well, and remain your good pal.
fabulous news buddy! I can't imagine being stapled up, you must feel so much better without those nasty things in ya!
You look so handsome out there watering. But don't work too hard. Woo Hoo! Glad the staples are gone!
Hugs,
Sitka
G'day J mate,
Sounds like you're doing really well. We're so relieved. Guess you have to have check ups on a regular basis. We'll keep crossing our paws that the nasty doesn't come back.
Take it easy and have a good weekend buddy. Hope the sun shines for you.

Hey Jax!
Great to see you up and surveying the grounds! Hey, are you up for a boys-only trip to Las Vegas? No nurses, just the chaps. Got a seat already reserved for you on Aire Ruby!
Check out my blog for the details!
Your pal,
Petey
Hi Jackson!
So glad everything has gone well with your big big op, I bet you feel lots and lots better without those horrible staples.

hi Jackson, we are barking with happiness to see you doing so well. you got loads of pawtastic stuff for your barkday and you totally deserve it, kiddo. you have a ton of friends. we wuf you, kiddo!
woofs.
I know those staples were starting to pull and make ya uncomfortable, Jax!! You are getting stronger everyday!
Now don't be shy bout your lopsided haircut...it's gonna be the latest style all over the UK...you'll grow out before you even know it...and hopefully before it gets cold!! BRRRRR!
So you went to Vegas with the boyz...this gives the other nursies and I plenty of time to freshen your bed and scrub your room. We have to run to Gussie's on Monday night...but we'll split shifts so you won't be unattended.
Love to you sweet Jax!!!
Laciegirl
So pleased to hear you are doing well. Hope you'll be back to your old self soon.

You are such a brave boy, Jackson! We're glad you got rid of those nasty staples. Our mom had them one time and they didn't hurt until she actually saw them! We are sooooo glad you are on the way to a complete recovery. You don't look, at all, like FrankenWeenie! You're much cuter!
Aire-hugs,
Poppy, Penny & Patches
Hi, Jackson...
I'm soo glad to hear you are doing so well...
I saw on Petey's Blog that you are even feeling good enough to go along to Vegas with the boys...That's great...
Have fun, but don't over do it...
Abby xxxooo
We're so glad you are on the mend, pal, and showing what a true trooper you are.
I would have flinched, for sure!
Happy Tails,

What great furiends woo have!
It is wonderful to see woo getting out and about again!!
My mom did the same thing - her sister wanted to get her some fur her birfday - she said to make a donation to The Tails on the Trail hike in MY name!!!
Happy Healing!!!!

Khyra
Oh Jackson I'm Sooo pleased you are feeling better! I'm glad you picked up my blog card - silly Mumma has a paper one in her bag that she never got to post - So unreliable are the hoomans sometimes. She did tell me that there was a charity box for doggies near her market stall last saturday and she put a barkday donation in, after buying snackies for me from the pet stall of course.
Lots of healing wishes
George
Lookin' great, man!
wally t.
Pal, nice work on the watering... the J's will really enjoy them all the more come harvest time knowing you helped them along.
You still look wagging handsome dude. I did wag over to see FrankenStanley. Yikees!!Who put those staples in around all his edges? No wonder he hasn' had them removed - not as brave as you!!!

So glad to read the encouraging news on your blog. You are indeed an AWESOME, BRAVE, foxy pup! You are also so lucky to have such wonderful parents to "go the extra mile" to get you well again. Wishing you continued recovery and the best of health from now forward!!!!!
Hi Jackson, so happy you are getting better. And a very brave one at that too. And you are so lucky to have wonderful parents and friends!
Hi Jackson!
So good to hear that you're doing much better! Those were cool pressies and cards you got there...=) Teehee, the photo of Frankenweenie is so cute!

That's great news about the tumor removal, Jackson!! I'm feeling optimistic that it hasn't (and won't) spread and the worst is behind you :)
By the way, I had both my cataracts removed, and can see very well now. But no more surgeries for you for now. Please rest up and get 100% better!
Hope your birthday was extra extra special!
those are lovely cards by your thoughtful frens..
Jackson!
I'm so glad to hear that you are feeling better and that your staples were removed! Your J's must be so happy with your speedy recovery!
I've been sleeping with my paws crossed for you! And now that you are getting well, well I rather enjoy sleeping with crossed paws! Woohoo!
Happy Belated Birthday!
Slurp!

Hi Jackson
How are you? It must be soooo much better without all the staples. Well done for being so brave. You didn't have your teeth around anybody's hand did you while they removed them? Well it can help you know hanging onto something when in discomfort!!! Honest.
Molly and Taffy
I am so glad that you got the icky staples out and are feeling well enough to water the plants in the garden. You got some really nice barkday presents and cards.
G'day
I'm just doing a quick visit today 'cause I have so many places to go and things to see. I'll come back for a longer stay soon.
Cheers

We tried several times to check on you while we were on Nantucket, Jackson, but dial-up was so mean to us! It's nice to be home and visit our friends!
We missed you lots!
Love ya lots,
Maggie and Mitch
Hey, Jax!
You are so brave & tough, man. I HATE going to the vet and can barely stand to have my paws touched, let alone having staples removed.
That scar is really going to go a long way in reinforcing your rep as a badass wire. Maybe you should think of getting a motorcycle.
Goober love,
Stanley
