Finally got the tests back from the Vet. $500 lighter, and a week later, we know more but nothing certain. We do know the flags for pancreatitis were negative. So that's not his issue. Looks like an intestinal inflammation of some sort. He's low on follic acid, which is an indicator. Tells us where the … Continue reading Jethro Update →

The other week, Jethro wasn't well. To fix his guts, I put 1/2 tsp of food grade diatomaceous earth. I got the tip from Aria's foster years ago, and it usually works. It did this time as well.

Had a lot of screen time this week, what with the ice and whatnot. Tax season is ramping up and just as Herself would be in the office late, she's here working. Which the dogs loved. They'll lay around all day and get super animated when she comes home. This week, Jethro has been posted … Continue reading End of a Long Week →
