1 month and 7 days post amputation
Comments(6) Sorry we havent been very good about keeping our blog up to date. Our baby was due on Sept 16 and he decided to join us 11 days early on Sept 5th! Caesar now has a little brother – Soren Axel Rebman. Mom and baby are doing well.
Caesar is doing remarkably well. The week the baby came was a big turning point for Caesar. He was doing ok before that, but that week – he became more of himself – playing, running around, following me into the kitchen hoping for something to drop and hit the floor for a little snack! The amputation site has healed well.
He still sometimes forgets how to go up the stairs, but will a little encouragement and sometime help, he makes it seem easy! The other day he came running in the backdoor after going potty and if I didnt know he had only 3 legs, I would have never have known by the way he ran right past me and went to lay down!
He still gets tired fairly easily, so we need to start building his tolerance up for some walks. With baby here things have been a little hectic!
Caesar has adjusted to Soren pretty well. He was certainly curious about this new, little noisemaker and would get “nervous” when Soren would cry, but we have sat on the floor with Soren and Caesar has come up and give him a big wet kiss – so they seem to get getting along well!
We hope to be better about blogging going forward – attached are some recent pictures of Caesar.
We haven’t for one minute regretted amuptating Caesar’s leg. He is a happy puppy again and will hopefully live a long and healthy life!
Ryan, Rachel, Soren and Caesar!

Caesar does indeed look great! Thanks for the update and congratulations! No apologies necessary.
Congratulations on your baby! Babies do turn things upside down hectic for sure.
Caesar is a handsome dude. Sounds and looks like he’s just doing awesome.
Cesar, look at you go on those stairs! Wow! Congrats on your new little brother, we’re sure you’ll take fantastic care of this funny fur-less creature. Have fun!
Looking good! Glad to see he’s adjusting well. impressive with the stairs. Grace is doing really, really well. Chest x-rays came back clear last week. Big relief. Her attitude, temperment and well being are better than we had hoped for. Sending your new little man and big brother ceasar love from me and Grace.
