Me llamo Rocky

Coyote-0, Rocky-1

Coyote-0, Rocky-1

Just two nights before we left for my grandpa's funeral, we were encountered with another terrifying obstacle.  Rocky was attacked my a coyote right at our back steps.  I knew the second I heard him crying and was lucky enough to yell and run and scare the coyote before he could do any more damage to my little boy.  Luckily, the coyote dropped him.  After checking Rocky over and finding puncture wounds, we took him to the ER where he had surgery to get all of his wounds stitched.  Luckily, there were no punctured organs or broken bones, so Rocky will heal very quickly.

It was a very traumatic experience for the whole family, but Rocky has proved to be a tough little guy.  We are incredibly grateful that his life was saved that day, especially knowing all the other possibilites.    Lucky for him, his stitches will be removed on Monday and he should feel as good as new.  Thank you so much to everyone who supported us and sent Rocky special thoughts for a full recovery.
