An Update from Utah, our Canadian Pitbull

Dear CHS Staff,

Utah had his surgery for his torn ACL's in April and all went well. We really appreciated the great card that you sent with everyone's signatures! It was a long spring/summer as Utah needed about 3 months of recovery with very little activity, but we made it through. Utah is doing amazing now! He is running, jumping and playing like crazy! Besides his scars and the fact that he puts a little less weight on his back right leg every now and then, you would never know that he had surgery! We slowly worked our way back to our daily walks, adventures, and dog park visits, and now Utah is in tip-top shape. Although, we didn't get to travel anywhere this summer, we are very happy that Utah is healthy again. In October, Utah and Carter celebrated their second birthdays. Utah is 60 pounds, and Carter is a whopping 85 pounds. Carter towers over Utah! I think they are done growing now. Although they are very gentle dogs, the two of them still like to roughhouse like brothers do. I can't believe that it's been two years since we adopted our tiny little puppies!!! Not a day goes by that I don't think about how lucky I am to have adopted such an amazing dog.

Utah & Jody
