Dolly is doing better today...


(PHOTO: Dolly and Franklin laying around today while Dolly recovers. Franklin hasn't left her side for a minute, and lets her use him as a pillow!)
Dolly is doing better. went to the vet, she's on an anti-inflammatory (Metroinazole) for her lower intestine. It was having fits (likely from something she ate). She's also on Pepcid twice a day to reduce the acid the small intestine is generating.
Before she took the anti-inflammatory, she still had 5 bouts of diarrhea this morning... and of course, one right outside the front door of the Vet's office!
As for finally sleeping, fortunately, Doggy Daycare gave her Imodium yesterday, which helped quell her symptoms overnight, so she slept last night. She's sluggish today (likely because I'm working at home and had no lunch break to walk her and Franklin). - but at least not running outside. Poor doggy. She should be closer to normal in 3 days or so... we hope!
