Same old song and dance....

Some time has passed, and nothing really new to report on the Sadie front.  She still looks great, is eating her very expensive dog food - looks like she may have even put on a couple of pounds, and she  is still unconsciously peeing all over my house! (insert my distressed face here!)  It has gotten to the point where I am no longer allowing Sadie onto the carpet in the living room, and not letting her upstairs anymore.  I have shampooed my carpets more than my own head in the last month!  At least if she is one restricted area, mopping one floor, and washing her bed everyday isn't as bad as mopping every floor.  It's making me very sad to have to do this - what kind of quality of life is it when you are restricted to one area?  BUT - the way I see it,  what about my quality of life?  I mean this mentally of course, as I know my quality of life otherwise is great.  I am beginning to resent my dog, and resent my family members when it comes to the dog.  Everything that comes with taking care of Sadie, falls on my shoulders, and I keep on doing it - but at times it is begrudgingly.

I am hoping to get Sadie back to the vet for a check up, and hoping to convince Steve that we should have another ultra sound.  IF all else fails, I am hoping to get Sadie a prescription that will hopefully help, and at least lessen the amount of urine that is leaking out of her.

groundhog day...

Much of the same here. Nothing new to report.  Sadie has her good days and bad days, as do I! :)   Sadie has been walking with a limp the last couple of days, favoring her right front paw - it could have to do with her busting out of the front door and visiting the neighbors a couple of times in the last week, running as if she is a puppy again, only to pay for it when we finally catch up to her. :)

No new appointment has been made to bring Sadie to the Vet for a follow up ultra sound to check the size of her tumors.  Steve and I are just not in agreement as to where we will go once we know anything more, so it just makes the days of  ME  dealing with all that comes with a sick dog, long and frustrating!  Thank God I love my dog (and husband!), and I remind myself of that every single day!

I am sure you are all as ready as I am for Spring to FINALLY get here!

Be Well! <3
