Penny-Penny


Our weekend camping trip has been delayed. The older of our two dogs and the ruler of the home has taken ill. She woke up Monday morning with a swollen neck and very lethargic. After a 500$ vet bill, some antibiotics, pain pills and draining of the fluid around her neck she is home and seems to be feeling a little better. Her neck is still swollen and she is still very listless so we are not to thrilled about packing up the car and traveling 6 hours. It would not be very fair to her and I would hate to have her away from medical care should the need arise. Now I have 6 days off and don't know quite what to do with my self. Isn't that a shame!!!

  4. Our pets are so much a part of our lives. I often think about how many times in the day I interact with Donnie, our Manchester Terrier, and wonder what I would do with all of those moments if I didn't have him. He just a bundle of energy, joy, and a big lump in the bed ... because he likes to sleep totally under the covers!
