Sue, Lola, Pongo & Hubby's Blog – April 2011 Archive (3)

So we're going in to the vet's (for about the 10th time this month) in about 20 min (he works literally 5min from our house...VERY convenient), and we can't wait to hear him say "ALL CLEAR, MISS. LOLA!!" Yes, he has his own personal nickname for Lola...no one else calls her that :)

From what I can see, and smell, she seems to be all clear of the mounds of wax she had stored in there...but without my own otoscope (which I may look into getting...) who's to know.

Wish my…

So poor Lola is home safe. She actually got back several hours ago (was only at the vet's for a couple of hours), but I unfortunately had to work out of town until early afternoon. Hubby was home to get her though....and it's been a rough day since. Lola refused to sleep even though she was really groggy and unbalanced and clumsy (ran into a couple of walls!!!)...so she insisted on pacing around the house whining all day. I cuddled her (and whispered sweet nothings lol), and tried taking her…

So poor Lola has had a yeast AND bacterial ear infection for over a month now. We've been cleaning, medicating with a total of three different drops, changed her food (to Orijen!)...and after a rather traumatizing trip to the vet this morning, we've found out she as to go in tomorrow morning to get her ear flushed...and SEDATED!!! Hubby and I almost broke out into tears imagining our poor gorgeous girl being sedated. Just needed to vent a little...hope things go well tomorrow.....
