Gemi is A-Okay

Cyber-Paw pals, a super fast relay team of sparrows brought us this Greyhound Express Note from Minnesota. The note is from Gomer, Opie & Floyd.

"Gemi is doing well and getting plenty of loving attention from her hoomans. She went into surgery around 2:40 PM and at 7:00 PM started waking up from the surgery. She lost 14 abscessed teeth (all 12 incisors and her two upper canine teeth) and had more than 50% bone loss. Gemi has 19 teeth left. In about 30 days Gemi mouth will heal enough from the surgery that she will be able to eat crunchy treats and food. All things point to an outstanding success story."

You can read about the saga of helping Gemi and get current information on her status by clicking on the following two links: 1) Gemi links at DogsAyeView and 2) Gemi link at IMOM (go to page 4 to read the DogsAyeView on the scene vet report.) We are wondering about that total of 33 teeth. We know that sometimes those little birdies can be a bit flighty when passing information. The important thing is Gemi is okay and doing fine.

Dog Speed,

Can You Help Gemi?



 

" Gemi"
Two Shelties - Gemi and Teddy at the beach.

Our cyber-paw pals Opie and Gomer at DogsAyeView wrote about Gemi needing oral surgery. We like those two a lot and decided to help. When we noticed that Gemi was a Sheltie we decided a post was necessary too. Gemi is a 3 1/2 year old Sheltie and is a svelte 12.5 lbs.

You can read all about Gemi and how you can help her at the following two posts by DogsAyeView - "More Information about Gemi" and and "Can You Help Us Help Randi?". We decide to help and you might too. Gomer and Opie give you all the information you need in their posts. In our minds they are doing the work of the Great Dane.

Dog Speed,

Essex & Deacon

UPDATE: At 3:02 PM on 5 JULY, IMOM listed Gemi as fully funded. That funding is at the low end estimate. Hopefully, that will cover it. The Key West Collies will keep an eye on this breaking story and provide updates as we get them.

After all "Inquiring Collies want to know."
