Ruff day

Poor Claire.

Took her into the vet this morning. Everyone at the vet fell in love with her as they checked her out from stem to stern. She was brave soldier as the poked and prodded her and kept wagging her tail thoughout the exams. She did test positive for a medium amount of hearworms which we will deal with in two weeks. The vet went ahead with her surgery to neuter her and it turns out she was in full heat. No wonder she had a few minor accidents yesterday. She came through the surgery with flying colors and is resting at home with the obnoxious collar. Seems to take it better than Grayson, but still not quite happy with it. She is a bit lethargic and not quite as chipper, but still trys to wag her tail when you pet her. Will be a few days before she regains her smile.

Poor girl! Hope you are pampering her a lot! How is she getting on with the collar? Some manage OK, while others just seem to crash into everything.

What a sweet dog! Poor girl. Give her some extra TLC for all she's had to endure.
