Looks Like It's Our Turn...

Well, took Tori for her yearly check-up and vaccinations...and it seems that she had a fever - a pretty high one the doctor said.. 103.9. She has been sort of mopey the last few 4 days or so... but then would play, romp, etc. Her eating habits are not as good, but I just contributed that to possible habit change now that she's 2. But.. I should have trusted my 'gut' feeling that said something was just not right. I do notice that the last couple of weeks she has been - shall we say- more concerned about her hygiene, and licking right after a pee-pee... They took blood, checking her stool and lipase levels... she's on antibiotic and $300.00 later... I have a sick puppy girl and a son with a headache... who knows maybe they caught something from each other??? We'll know more tomorrow... HUH! Just when I thought all of this worry would be behind me.. just like human kids... you NEVER stop worrying!

Hi Lori! Tori's fine now... knock wood! Florida was great! But it rained for the first three days on and off.. but we got everything in that we wanted to do. Plus still have 3 days left on our Disney tickets for another time. Now it's back to the "real" world... I like "Disney's World" sooo much better! LOL (But we missed Tori!) How did Casper do staying while you went to fForida?

Hi everyone! Well the beautiful weather we are having here on Long Island today, has brought some better feelings... The vet called said blood and stool came back fine. Tori's still a bit mopey, but did eat this morning some. The vet seems to think that she probably does have a UTI, although I would think her white blood count would have been elevated, but...she'll take her meds and hopefully be back to her old self real soon....BTW ~ son's feeling a bit better too! THANKS EVERYONE! I just love the support we can get even though we are so far separated in distances from each other, but yet only a "click" away! Thanks again!!!

I hope that everyone feels better soon!

[Allyson, Peri & Taquito]

Oh, get better soon Tori (and your son!).

[Carole (*Koda*Monty*Bindi)]

I hope today is a better day for both of them :)

If they have to collect a sample at my vet's office, a tech follows the dog around with a ladle. But I've had better luck with my previous dogs (all female) just having a sterile container ready.
