  • If somebody told me 20 years ago that in 2024 I'd be watching a dog get his butt disinfected in Svalbard on the Internet... I doubt I'd believe it. Stay safe, dear Grim!
  • @brandi_w
    Christoffer chatting easily about Grim made my heart smile. ♡
  • @LunaGranville
    I have so much respect for you not filming Grim around his surgery. You listened to your gut and went with it. That was very loving and protective
  • @l.b.3148
    As dogs age, they get bumps and growths. They just do. It's great you had it removed. He will appreciate it later. Everyone wants Grim around for a long time!!
  • @lou-anneh5248
    The funniest thing is Christopher saying “ butthole”. Great job Mom and Dad
  • @danni3019
    No worries Grim, you’re in good hands!! No worries Cecilia, you’re in good paws!! ❤
  • @hooooliee90
    Such good dog parents! It's important to show the full spectrum of experiences with a pet. So glad Grim looks like he's on the mend and a happy camper.
  • So glad Grim is going to be okay. I hope his healing continues to go well, and that he doesn't get seriously disgruntled when you've not cleaning his fluffy butt daily.
  • Oh, sweet Grim ❤ It’s so scary when our furbabies are poorly in any way. I’m so pleased everything went smoothly with his surgery and recovery
  • @mmmyyy3426
    We are sending our well wishes to you Grim! 🥺
  • So glad the final pathology was negative! The fact that Grim came through just fine with the surgery and recovery is wonderful! Looking forward to the rest of Grim's summer adventures! Extra cuddles please for Grim from me!😊❤
  • @sindysimms4001
    Heal quickly Grim. Christoffer I love that you talk to us more now.
  • @Tauranasaurus
    ❤ Grim. I don’t recall ever seeing or knowing any family member, human or canine that is better taken care of than Grim. He is truly one lucky boy.
  • @nicoledarke9263
    Grimm is so lucky that he has you guys for parents! You take such good care of him and provide him a loving home. Sending HUGS to you Grimm!!❤
  • Grim is the best boy, standing there and allowing his wound to be cleaned. He’s always good, but, I’m impressed that he didn’t wiggle around. You and he were meant to be! ❤
  • @Smartgran
    Yes I remember when you received ownership of Grim. I can't believe it can be so long ago. I remember how emotional you were Cecilia. I think we know when an animal has a soul connection with us. Its amazing. So glad Grim is doing well. 🤩

    I live in a senior apartment building that allows pets. There are only 4 residents who have a dog and several who have a cat. I hear them talk about the high vet bills. Just last week, Senator Bernie Sanders, from New Hampshire said that if Biden, now Harris, gets into office they will start looking into two areas that are very expensive - one is dental, and the other is vets. If that happens, it will be a tremendous relief to not only seniors but everyone here in the US. You always take so much care of Grim and you both love him so much. Best to you, Jane, Philadelphia

    Grim, such a good doggo 🐶. He didn't even complain when you did his post-op care 😊❤ What a great doggo patient ❤🐶
