The Help My Dog (Floppy) Challenge: Day 54 - $180.56 of $5,060.00 - Please Upvote / Resteem / Donate Directly!!!

Hey Everyone,
My dog Floppy had successful back surgery on Friday 12/22/17. He is in recovery now and he should be ok!

Unfortunately, these unexpected expenses have hit my family very hard and I am turning to the Steemit community in an effort to raise funds to pay for Flop's surgery. Every Upvote, Follow, Comment, and Resteem will help me out, and any straight donations would be straight up awesome!!! All of your kind words & support have been amazing so far and as you can see, it is growing by the day, so thank you so much!

...and remember, I am upvoting all your comments now!

Below are pictures of Floppy's scar from right after the surgery, January 20th, February 1st and February 13th... it's healing so well!!!!

...The Doctors really did an amazing job!

Again, I kindly ask that you follow me as well so you can continue to keep up on Flop's progress throughout the year, as well as the progress of my goal. Thank you all for your support, upvotes, follows, resteems, and donations so far. Progress is being made, slowly but surely, and my family is so appreciative!

DAY 53 UPDATE

Flop had a really nice day yesterday! Since my Mom was in town from Chicago, Lu stayed home from school and Flop got to spend some of the day with them! I let my mom sleep in and I still woke up early for work (although 20 minutes later than normal), showered, and went downstairs to walk FLop.

I left for work after giving him his treat, Vanessa left shortly after. Luey woke up pretty late, after I left, and my mom gave him breakfast and then took him and Flop to the park! My mom did not take any pics, but I absolutely know that Flop had a great time. He was probably loving the new scenery, and if I know my doggy, he was probably barking up a storm lol.

They got home from the park and pretty much spent the rest of the day together. My mom has never been a big dog fan, but she has really taken a liking to Floppers over the years and he loves her a lot too! My mom doesn't really know how to lift Flop up or anything like that, and unfortunately she told me he jumped off the couch like 3 or 4 times!

I got home from work and Vanessa was already home, Flop was soooo excited to see me, it was chaos! He was running around all over the place in circles like a mad man, and of course peed the floor in excitement a little :(

After I cleaned up his pee, I took him for a nice walk around the block.

We went over to Vanessa's brother's house for dinner because some friends came into town for the weekeend for Lu's birthday and a trip to Disney on Sunday. It's going to be Lu's first time! We decided not to bring Flop even though we normally do because we didn't know if he would play well with his best friend/cousin....Buster! Busty is pretty aggressive, but he and FLop are besties and it may have been toot much for Flop's back.

We got home around 9 and I walked him right away... FLop must have been super hungry, his bowl was empty of both food & water!!!! I filled it up and he came over immediately, even though he just finished a beggin strip from his walk!

My mom and I put Lu to bed, chilled on the couch for a bit and called it a day. Lu's birthday party is today at 11:30!!!

Besides the couch jumping, Floppy had a great day. Thanks for reading!!!
