Good! She needs to silence the critic(s). All seriousness, I hope she's ok. What's the recovery for that? How do they keep a dog from using a leg that can't be used for a bit?

It's hard to spend that kind of money on our 4 legged friends, but they are family and I would spend that on my boxer.

I hope it all works out Dave.
Dogs have an incredibly high tolerance for pain, so after surgery, they bounce back rather quickly.

And you can use a set of wheels that holds her legs up off the ground to go outside and do her business and such.

My buddies dog tore 2 ACL's and the vet said to just let it heal. His dog was 12 years old at the time though and the vet didn't think it would survive the surgery.
He used that wheel chair type thing for his dog until the scar tissue built up enough and the dog was "fine" after that.

STP is one of my favorite bands of all time. I probably saw them ten times over the years, and every time Weiland was a different guy. Always a terrific performance, but there were times he would be climbing on things and looked high. One time the show was delayed an hour because he was apparently drunk in his trailer.

I had heard he was clean and was happy for him, but it appears he had started doing crack cocaine recently and with how fragile his heart likely was from years of heroin, won't be surprised if it's a heart attack. STP isn't the same without him. Velvet Revolver was terrific as well.

Heavyweight boxing champ Tyson Fury on a couple topics...

When initially asked about women in boxing during the interview posted on YouTube, Fury focused on the women who carry round cards in the ring, not fighters.
"I think they are very nice when they're walking around that ring holding them cards," he said. "I like them actually; they give me inspiration when I'm tired and I see them wiggling around with their Round 2, Round 8. I think women in boxing is very good
Asked about female boxers:
...a woman's best place is in the kitchen and on her back. That's my personal belief. Making me a good cup of tea -- that's what I believe
Fury was also asked about British heptathlete Jessica Ennis-Hill, who is the reigning Olympic and world champion.
"That's the runner isn't it?" he replied. "I think she's good. She's won quite a few medals for Britain, she [cleans up] good as well, when she's got a dress on she looks quite fit."

I'm not sure if this story is spreading nationally or not right now, but it's filled my Facebook page and local news this week. I didn't realize how close to home it was until I noticed a few friends that are friends of the father. As a father of a 3yr and an 8mo old, I find it impossible to understand this.

On top of all that, I can't even begin to express how amazed I am with how the father is handling it. Among the things that I know are happening include the donation of vital organs, including lungs that will be going to save the life of another young child. As a plan for the funeral he's asked people not to bring gifts or flowers, but to bring toys so he can donate them to Toys-For-Tots. All of this in the immediate wake of what has happened.

Community angered, saddened by death of 2-year-old in Butler County

Spoiler!
FRANKLIN, Ohio —A couple is facing upgraded charges after a Butler County toddler died Thursday evening.

Bradley Young, 26, is now charged with felonious assault and murder in the death of Kinsley Kinner.

Watch this story

Kinsley's mother, Rebecca Kinner, 23, is charged with permitting child abuse. Her charge was upgraded Friday from a third-degree felony to a first-degree felony.

Kinsley, 2, was taken off life support Thursday evening, her father, Scott Senft, said on Facebook.

Senft posted the following message Thursday:

"Thank you everyone. We have decided to let Kinsley go. Her injuries were way more serious than everyone thinks."

The Hamilton County Coroner's Office confirmed that Kinsley died Thursday.

According to Sheriff Richard Jones, emergency crews responded to the 3400 block of Radabaugh Road early Wednesday morning after a 911 call reporting a child who was unconscious.

Kinsley was not breathing when taken to Cincinnati Children’s Hospital and was placed on life support.

Detectives were advised by physicians that the severe injuries the little girl sustained were consistent with child abuse.

According to court documents, Kinsley had bruising near her throat and several bruises on her head. A CAT scan showed bleeding on her brain, court documents said.

The documents claim that Kinner watched her boyfriend shake and punch Kinsley in the head multiple times the day before the toddler stopped breathing. Kinner made no attempt to help the girl, the documents state.

"It's crazy. How would a mom let another dude do that to their kid?" friend of victim's father Austin Vance said.

Young was initially charged with felonious assault, but a murder charge was added after Kinsley's death.

Both Kinner and Young appeared before a judge on Friday. Neither spoke in court.

Before proceedings started in Middletown Municipal Court, Judge Mark Wall warned people in the gallery.

"Intimidation of a witness in any case is a very serious offense. We have a system of justice in this country which begins with these defendants right now," Wall said.

About 50 people showed up for the pair's arraignment, many who are friends with Kinley's father.

"It has to hurt. There'd be no way I could deal with what Scott's going through, but Scott knows he has a lot of people here to have his back and I'm telling you, when they go to prison, it's going to be a world change because they're not going to last, just not going to," Austin Vance said.

Kinner and Young are being held without bond.

A preliminary hearing was set for next Thursday, but it's likely this case will go directly to a grand jury instead.

Kinsley's grandmother wrote on Facebook that her son Scott donated his daughter's organs in hopes of saving another child's life.

How does someone restrain themselves when looking right at the very person who did this to their kid. Yuck.

I don't think I've ever seen as much outrage over an issue on a public forum, as I have on posts related to this on Facebook. Legitimate death threats posted on articles and even the "mother's" Facebook page. Organized groups even stating that they would find them if they were released. When they arrived for court, both were brought in "secretly," with body armor, and during the process the judge had to demand orderly conduct from the public that was in attendance.

I'm about 99% certain that this is going to come down to heroin. It's a major epidemic in the area that this occurred. The corridor from Cincinnati to Dayton has been overwhelmed with it.
