Good Morning Groanies,

For the last week or so my left hip has been giving me such grief when I wake up in the morning. The pain got so bad that I went to see a doctor who hopefully would offer me some relief.

While I was at the doctor's office, he said that I had a case of hip dysplasia and, since I was still relatively young, surgery would be the best course of action.

The only setback that I could see was that I would have to wear one of those cones around my neck for 8 weeks to avoid getting in the way of the healing process. I would look ridiculous, but I guess that's the price you pay if you want to be able to run and catch frisbees come springtime.

So, I told him to schedule me for surgery and then he gave me a treat, scratched my belly, and checked me for worms. What doctor goes that extra mile to make you feel like such a good boy. What a guy, huh? He told me he's a vet, too!

Groaningly yours,
Steve
