March 20, 2008 - Don't feel like doing much
It's been a rollercoaster of a week. Our old man, Boingo the Vizsla, has been in and out of the vets having tests run. Seems there is something wrong with his liver but the vet won't say what til she gets the definitive results back from the sonogram. He's 12 years old and has always acted like a puppy until last fall when he developed arthritis in his hips and knee. The meds we put him on for this could have contributed to what is wrong now, but he has had such a better quality of life until this past weekend, that I refuse to feel badly about that.
Funny how these animals have a way of worming into our hearts and planting themselves firmly there.

| You absolutely did the right thing with the medication. Every time I see sweet old Boingo, he's spry and running all over the place and happy as hell, which he certainly wouldn't be without that treatment. Hugs to all of you guys, and give Boingo and Bella some extra tummy rubs from me. |
