Last week before school.......

This has been another rough week for Abbey. While "swimming" (this is code for sit on the top step of the pool and watch the kids) at Granny's house this week Abbey decided to check out what yummy treats she could find in the garden. Well she managed to find an apparent great appetizer......cat poop. We couldn't get it out of her mouth fast enough and down it went. Well that evening her little tummy was rumbling a bit and she seemed more tired than usual. At 5:30 in the morning she was begging to go out and she ended up having really bad "dog-a-rhea"! Poor thing. All morning she was constantly going out. I got her an appointment at the vet in the early afternoon and got some great "dog-a-rhea" pills and a pre/pro biotic. She was wiped by that evening, but took her meds no problem. She felt better today, but she really had a rough ride. A few more days of the "dog-a-rhea" pills and a week and a half more on the pre/pro biotic. Through it all she has managed to gain weight. Up to 19.4 pounds and almost too heavy for the kids to carry. She is still a gentle little sweetheart that hates to be left alone in her crate when we go out (still fine at night and for naps during the day)......Abbey is going to have to suck it up the first day of school when I have to take the girls to school and pick them up at lunch etc.
