This is my fav picture of her...and yeah..she did that to herself with the toilet paper roll.. So.hilarious.Anyway, a few stitches, hours and a few hundred dollars later (yeeouch), Gracie's okay. They had to keep her for awhile to sedate her and remove not only one visible infection along her booty but another internal one that was larger, but hadnt made itself visible yet. I guess it's really common in small dogs. Now I know what to look for..but I felt SO BADLY that I hadnt noticed. Granted, my dog is pretty chill and doesnt complain a ton about anything...*sigh*
Anyway, just glad my baby is alright. Last night, I had to carry her down to potty and put her in the grass then pick her up and take her back upstairs. :( Poor thing. This morning started THREE drugs for the next 14 days. Wow, right? One of them is an antibiotic creme. So...for any of you who wondered about my mothering skills, please insert image of me rubbing the creme on my dog's booty incisions...and not batting an eye. I love her more than I thought possible. Just glad she's okay.... :)

okay, call me a bad friend, but i stopped reading at "remove not only one visible infection along her booty" because i just could not read much more for the sake of my tummy.... that being said, I AM SO GLAD SHE IS OKAY!
oh and i understand vet bills, i just dropped $500 at the vet three weeks ago.
yikes!!!!
wow... this is why i have neither pets nor babies. no doubt you are a great mom, though. really great. glad gracie is getting better. i've had similar "issues" myself, which is uber gross... but that said.... does she need more fiber in her diet? ;)
I LOVE this picture...wasnt I there when it was taken?
