Man, you are one sick puppy!

No, not me.

Our puppy. In the course of 24 hours an upset stomach and a few accidents turned into vomiting, lethargy, and internal bleeding. Today has been a stressful day.

Emergency trip to the vet first thing in the morning.
Big Bill!

Second trip to the vet when Tootsie's conditioned worsened and she started to shoot blood out of her butt.
Hospitalization and, YEP, a Big Bill!

These past few months, since we adopted Tootsie, we have known the joys of owning, caring for and loving a dog. I forgot how much it enriches your life. Just recently with kenneling her while we left town, and now these Vet visits we have come to discover the other side of the coin.

Oh well, this too shall pass...

Sorry to hear about Toots! Dinah sends her well wishes!

The dog is doing much better. She's on a strict diet of bland foods, antibiotics, and love because those things usually don't make you butt bleed.
