And look.. all 4 feet in use... *whew... Actually she was up and about yesterday after just one dose of those miracle anti-biotics.. although she was still shakey... Today, there's no stopping her.. believe me I've tried... sick puppies shouldn't be tearing around the house, launching themselves off the furniture... sick puppies shouldn't be running headlong thru the woods in pursuit of the neighbors cat... but nevertheless.. this sick little pup has been doing it all.. so nice to see her back to her old self... she's still not eating the way she should be but I assume that's because she thinks we're trying to poison her with all the pills we've been slipping into her meals... LOL
So it seems she's gonna be alright... we still have to get those kidneys checked out though... The really sad footnote to all of this... This was EXACTLY how we lost our first dog, Roper... unfortunately Lyme Disease wasn't as known then as it is now so she was never tested for it when she came up lame... she eventually suffered kidney failure and we had to put her down... she was an awesome dog and it hurts to think that a month of anti-biotics could have saved her life...so VERY sad...
Later...
