Nice, they are about in a few different adverts, I spot them every now and again.
Wilys accident

Thank you for the update, I am so relieved to see that it is positive! As unfortunate as your situation was, at least Wily has you, not everyone would be willing to go to such legnths to work with their dog, that must be very time consuming and expensive! How wonderful you are to do it! I hope things continue to go well for you
-
Thank you for posting an update. I too have been worried. This is wonderful news!!!!! CARE sounds amazing! This is a miracle and Wily is making strides daily. Our prayers are still with you and Wily that he recovers 100%
-
Congrats on Wily's progress so far. I'm glad you were able to find him such excellent care. Good luck with your future progress..it sounds like Wily is a real fighter.
-
Praise the Lord – hope things continue to improve for Wily (and you).
-
So glad to hear Wily is working hard to get better. It truly is amazing how dogs teach us that the only thing you can do in a situation like this is your best. It sounds like that is just what he is doing. Keep up the great work. Hugz to Wily and you.

It's been a month since we've heard anything about Wily's progress. How is he doing? I hope he is still making good progress!

hi everyone,
THANK YOU all so much for your wonderful well wishes. they continue to inspire us more than you can believe.you will be happy to know that wily is doing well. he's like magic. i tell him everyday. i wish i knew how to post a video. with the help of CARE, he is now walking around on his own. i stopped having to use the sling about 2 wks ago! i would say he's at around 75%. he's still wobbly and falls, but he's come so far from where he was.. it's nothing short of AMAZING.
he pees on his own, no problem, but the pooping business is still problematic. he doesnt trust that he has enough strength in those hind legs to squat low and push - he thinks he's going to fall back so he ends up doing what i call the walk-and-poo. most of the time, when i see him start to poop, i just squat down and support him so he knows he wont fall back. but even that is awkward for him of course so.. it's an issue we're still working on.
he's still on the "cooling diet" - turkey, spinach, broccoli, squash, ginger, garlic, yam, tofu, brown rice, bell pepper - and then i add vitamin e and b and wellactin (chilean wild salmon oil).
we have one more wk of phys therapy and then we'll see where we go from there. at that point, it might just mean lots of home exercises and time, but i feel like he's just going to get stronger. he's magic.
on another note, the dogwalker "dallas" actually had the nerve to ask us for money back for that first day in the ER. around $1500. my husband, andrew, told him - dallas, if you'd like to go down that road, we're happy to go down it with you. does he even know that we're now around $15,000 in? dallas even had his girlfriend call my husband with a sob story saying it was actually on her credit card and that she felt that dallas had also pulled the wool over her eyes. not my problem, we said. but andrew told her, hey if you'd like to go in on a joint suit, call us.
we're so trying to be buddhist about this - but i believe now it's time to spread the word and send him OUR bills for his gross negligence. i've obtained his clients' email addresses. had he just done the one thing that we had asked - to write a letter to his clients about what had happened, and if in the future if something terrible were to happen, what he would do.. oh well. goodbye dallas. -
I thought dog walkers had insurance to cover their expenses for that sort of thing; oh well, I'm lucky I don't have to trust Tyler with someone else. Not sure I could after seeing what you've been through.
VERY happy to hear Wily's recovery is moving along. I always knew it would. Hope to see you guys around soon.
-
Great news!!! I can't believe the gall of that guy. If something like this had happened to any animal that I was responsible for, I wouldn't be able to sleep!
I hope the updates continue to be as optimistic. This is very good news on a Friday the 13th

I am so glad to hear that he's doing so much better - what an amazing story!
Have you considered talking to an attorney? At the very least, you may want to protect yourself to make sure he doesn't go after you for the $1500. It's outrageous that he is asking you for that money, but he is obviously quite the jerk.
-
hey chad,
yes, they do have insurance thru Business Insurers of the Carolinas (u can find thru PSI - pet sitters intl and i had to call Century Ins Grp for liability). shell never officially had dallas sign papers signing over the business to him so i thot she might still be insured. but their coverage has lapsed (of course) and dallas is not insured or bonded period. ergh.. -
This is sort of a side note, but we hired Shell (Dallas's sister) when Seti was a couple of years old - she turned out to be quite nasty to us when we fired her and she left a voice mail telling us how much she and her husband hated our dog. This is obviously a really crappy family.
-
I'm SO happy to hear Wily is doing so well. What an amazing boy he is!!! I hope he continues to improve daily.
As far as that Dallas guy goes..UGH, the NERVE! That he could even ask you for reimbursement after the way he handled the situation and all the Wily and you have had to go through is appalling!
-
That is wonderful news, that Wily is recovering so well. Time and therapy work wonders. Hooray for you for going all out for your boy.

I am so glad to hear your little boy is continuing to make strides in recovery. Thank you so much for the update. Give Wily love from us all. What a strong determined boy to be recovering so well from such an awfull accident.
-
First let me get out my YIPEEEEE!!! for Wily and his continued recovery. It sounds like he's making a wonderful comeback. Hurray for all your effort and commitment!!!
NOW FOR THE DALLAS JERK!!!!!!!! I can't believe he had the nerve to call and ask for his money back!!!!!!!! Yeah, if he wants to go down that road…then take him there. IDIOT! Oh but what a lucky idiot he is and it's very kind of you not to force the issue with him. I don't know how I would have handled it but I do know I wouldn't have been as gracious as you and your husband. Dumb Dallas is not thinking.
So glad to hear more news on Wily. Thanks.:)
