Second Trip to the Vet

Today we took Heidi to the vet... second trip. Trip one we left with a laundry list of medical issues. Literally. We were dealing with hookworm, ringworm, mites, ear infections, staph infection in the skin, and a class 4 heart murmur.

Today was much better. The hookworm we are doing follow-up on later this week, ringworm is still a big question mark (waiting for results), ear infections are gone, skin infection is well under control, the mites (mange) will take time, but we are making good progress, and the heart murmur is a class 2... so hopefully its just a poor nutrition/dehydration thing.

We go back in 3 weeks for our next appointment. In the meantime, she is joining Jenny Craig or Weight Watchers. Gotta lose 10 lbs or so.

A couple of pictures. She sometimes carries her food bowl around the house, she makes a mess, but is good about cleaning it up. And one mid nap. Naps are nice.
