    Jimmy was retested for heartworm and...

    HE'S NEGATIVE! Jimmy was a stray from Tennessee for those of you that don't know and he tested positive in September and was treated. You have to wait months to retest. I yipped into the phone when the nurse told me. I'm so happy!

    Here is the original post from months ago when I found out he had heartworms...Original heartworm link We went in Saturday and the doctor said it was possible he would have a weak positive, but he is wormless! Have you ever seen Sleepless in Seattle? Well my Mom has been calling Jimmy Wormless in Chicago!

    I scheduled his neutering for 2/16 and I already requested 2/17 off so I can stay home with him. Look for posts with me freaking out about that soon. When it gets closer I know I will be worried about my boy.

    I forget exactly where my friends grandpa lived, but the town we stayed in was Dyersburg. It was about 20-25 minutes from his grandpa.
