It Must be Love

Love is in the air with Valentine's Day just around the corner but after spending almost $400 in a couple of weeks on this little gal

with last night's Vet bill at a whooping $244.00, "It Must Be Love." She is our baby and she is a very good girl. She has such a gentle disposition...what's not to love.

The story behind the Boo boo...and it isn't broken...

Spent the past week with oldest daughter and family in NC and she was fine...got home yesterday and still fine...late in the afternoon while talking to this particular daughter, I called the pups to go outside and she didn't come (she would have been there in a heart beat since she LOVES the outside). Finally she came but was limping and daughter thought maybe she laid on her paw wrong. About 30-45 min. later I was at my computer when I heard this sound like a bird that was injured and thought either it was on TV or some how a bird got in the house....NOPE...the awful sound was coming from our little fur child and the other fur child was over her protecting her. I got the other pup away and when I went to pick her up she was shaking and whimpering...so I called the Vet. They had just closed (go figure) but they would wait for me to come in. After some X-rays, exam, pain shot, a sedative shot, (2) prescriptions and a wrapped paw...we were out of there. She has a spur sticking from her joint that should right itself and the Vet said it was a good thing that it didn't stick going into her joint or then we would have been looking at some surgery. Not sure how this all happened.

She is adjusting sloooooowly to this wrapped paw but still hobbles around on (3) legs. She gets carried...did you think I would do anything else. Even some of our daughters say if there is such a thing as reincarnation they want to come back as "my" dog. Wonder why????

So for the next week someone is going to be babied.
