Thanks, everyone. Actually she was pretty freaked out by Santa! As the photographer was taking the picture, she was sort of lunging her neck away from him! That's her "Who the heck is this guy?" expression!
Chili is doing great today! I think the hardest part of her recovery is about to start...that is, keeping her still and keeping her from jumping. She really surprised us yesterday. We let her out of her kennel so she could stretch her legs and cuddle with us (she's been quite the cuddlebug since the surgery), and all of a sudden she just jumped right up on the couch.
