I am so glad Piper seems to be doing without the pain meds. It sounds like she is quite well since her procedure. It amazes me how resilient puppies are. Sadye is doing well. Although since her last incident, she has become somewhat lazy. She will roam the grass to find the perfect blade to do her business on, then when it's time to come in, she sits down and wants me to pick her up. I refuse to do it. I figure if she has the strength to roam all over, then she has the strength to come up her ramp and get inside.  Just testing me I'm sure. She eats ok for the most part. I still have to spoon feed her with her prescription kidney food, she won't eat it on her own, being defiant. She gets chicken gizzards for supper and eats them fine. Sadye likes cheese too. But I can guarantee that if I did do that to her kidney food, she would turn her nose up and walk away, and refuse to eat it. How funny, that Penny thinks you are sprinkling cheese on her food with just the hand movements. What ever works I say. Continued below...

No big plans here this weekend. Ed has to work a bit in the morning, so I figure he will be home late morning/early afternoon. It was a lovely day here, Sunday we have potential for some really bad weather, starting off with rain, turning into severe storms, followed by drastic temperature drop, then snow. Then stay very cold through Tuesday. We have to take Molly for her adjustment on Monday, sure hope the weather/roads aren't bad. But spring is almost here. How is Layne doing? Are the glasses working good for her? I sure hope so. Enjoy your weekend. Sending love and hugs!

Sounds like Piper has quite the set up for night time. I hope she hasn't gotten sick anymore. Bless her heart. Even was able to keep it on the floor and not her bed. I know you were undecided whether you would give her pain medication, you are probably right it is probably the meds that upset her tummy. I still have her in my prayers. I hope you have a great weekend. Sending love and hugs to you!

So glad to hear Piper is doing well. Sounds like she has bounced right back after her procedure and that is great news. I can only imagine how you are trying to keep her calm, in all her puppiness, she isn't having any of that. It will be entertaining to see how she gets used to being outside. Once she realizes the freedom of being outside, and all the smells, that will be new to her. We had some beautiful days, but today it turned off quite chilly again. So we just get a hint of spring and then old man winter decides to slap reality in our faces. I hope you have a great rest of your week. Continued prayers for Piper. Love and hugs to you all!

Hope little Piper isn't too uncomfortable this evening. So glad she got through the procedure with no real issues. How is nurse Penny taking care of her? I'm sure she is looking over her intently, wondering what happened. Won't be long and Piper will be and around and I'm sure giving Penny some grief. Have a great week. Sending love and hugs!

Praying for you and Piper today! I know you are probably very anxious awaiting updates. Hopefully she does well and you can get her this afternoon, she will do better at home. Update when you can.

Hello Michelle, I hope you all have an enjoyable evening celebrating Alina. Bless her heart. Goldfish are good too. What ever makes her happy. Yes the visit went fine. But I must say it's good to have some normalcy. Maybe it's just me,  but I find it quite rude, when someone comes in and thinks it's their home, adds stuff to food, not asking, doubling up on the coffee, when not used to it being as thick as mud. Ed has 2 daughters who think they should be able to do what they normally do. At one point she was going to put a lot of stuff in the hash browns and I had to politely tell her, not to add too much to it because her dad doesn't like it. Continued below...

Then before we got up in the morning she would add double the amount of coffee, I thought she had done it on Friday morning but I didn't say anything, then yesterday morning I said to her jokingly did you add more coffee, she giggled and said yes,  I had several coffee filters loaded up just to be able to switch quickly and she had done it to all of them. Needless to say, Ed nor I drank too much coffee oh well just another day and now we are back to normal. I just have to shake my head as to how bold they are, they got that from their mother. Ed said Roxanne does the same thing. LOL!!! Yes it very nice of them to take us out to dinner. It was quite yummy. I will be praying for sweet Piper and you. I know how anxious you are. I always get the same way. I will be awaiting an update when you have time as to how things went. Well I must get myself busy as we need to get Ed ready to go back on the road to work. Have a good time tonight. Sending love and hugs to you.

Hello Michelle, nice and quiet on the home front. The visit went well, no real issues and I believe we all enjoyed the time together. No mention of past hurts so maybe we can move forward and let by gones be by gones. I hope so. They took us out for dinner last night. Ed's birthday is tomorrow, so they wanted to take him out to treat him. It was yummy. I will tell you....I sure like having our house back to normal. Sadye did pretty well. She only really barked when they moved quickly or come in from being out and about. Really proud of her. It could have been really bad, but she did well. We had to turn the A/C on yesterday, it got over 70 degrees and they were complaining how hot it was, we turned it off this morning, and the furnace actually kicked on. We are both tired...we just aren't used to all the extra stuff. Tomorrow will be busy getting Ed ready to go back down to work. It was nice having him home. I hope your celebration for Alina was a success. I have Piper in my prayers, will you get back tomorrow after the procedure. Sending good vibes to you...I know you are probably pretty anxious. Sending love and hugs to you and the girls!

Hello Michelle, the visit is going well. Yes his ex is something I really don't care for her much. She has a high energy personality and very over the top. We have had rain the last few days. It's supposed to be in the 70's here tomorrow. Spring things are poking out of the ground already. Seeing that is always a good sign. Glad Piper's blood work come out good. I will have her in my prayers for sure. I saw the short video of Penny chasing her through the house, warmed my heart to see the two of them playing. I agree it's always easier to get things done while they are already under sedation instead of doing more procedures. Bless her heart. Sadye is doing surprisingly well with the house guests. She remembers Monica but Jeremy is a new addition. I hope you have an enjoyable weekend. I know you celebrating Alina's birthday. Enjoy! Sending love, hugs and kisses!
