Peaches is A New Girl

Yesterday Peaches had a few doggy accidents and acted miserable so I drove her to the vet to see if there was anything we could do.


Peaches was sure I was going to off her and she was shaking like a leaf. They actually put us in the exam room where I have put down a cat and a dog of mine. I comforted her while she trembled and panted.


The vet examined her, watched her walk, get up and get down. Weighed her and collected a urine specimen.


She has a blazing kidney infection which is fixable. Her back legs hurt from all the years of Frisbee catching and that can be fixed with doggy pain meds. She has lost 11 pounds which was deliberate and good for her.


Today she is a new dog enjoying life.

Glad that Peaches is doing better. She should enjoy her trim, new figure. Alex had to give Hank an arthritis pill this afternoon, because he was having trouble getting around. I bet Peaches was sweating it at the vet, but is glad to be home now.
