Well its been a rough couple weeks as Kylie has had a wee set back. She wasn’t wearing her roughwear harness and took a tumble down about 5-6 wooden stairs at my in-laws house. That was the 2nd time in a couple months that she’s done that and after this last time we realized she is not herself, assuming she’s in pain. She was walking slower, not attempting to go up the stairs to bed on her own, not following us around the house and then her appetite in the mornings was declining. Vet is not sure if she’s sprained something or what but back on the Tramadol for a week she went!
In the last couple days she has slowly started to improve and we’re starting to see our girl back to her old self….albeit slowly! Her appetite is quickly returning, which is always a good sign for me since this lab is usually a PIG lol Today she is also walking around more and showing interest in things rather than just laying there panting. She seems happier and more engaging with us and never a shortage of kisses!! Maybe she knows its her ampuverary!?! 😀 Actually she does, because I told her!
After such a good check up with the Oncologist last month, I am just not allowing myself to think its the nasty C word back in our lives. It would be so wrong for it to come back with a vengeance and take her other good leg! And chest X rays showed clear! So we are hopeful she just hurt herself & needed time to mend! We are loving every bonus day we get with her!
Once again, (it certainly bears repeating) I cannot thank the AMAZING people on this site for all the advice and support when questions/issues arise! As a worried Fur Mom it means the world to have the reassurance and advice. You’ve made these last 10 months so much easier & less stressful! Makes me realize that I need to start making time to get on this site more regularly and BE that support person to others as well. Life gets busy and I tend to only post when we have issues and that is not right! I vow to be a better Tripawd member 😉
Chris, Kevin & Kylie xo
p.s. Here is our little sun worshiper working on her tan 😀
Sweet Kylie, enjoy that sun as it is healing. I hope things go smooth through this rough patch. You are obviously well loved.
