I thank you all for your prayers and support; it means a lot.
Well, the vet visit was positive - her regular vet wasn't there, but we've seen the other as well, and they're both very good.
There seems to be no sinus trouble or congestion; could be a touch of spring allergens for the sneezing - nothing to worry about, no recurrence of the awful thing she had a year ago-whew!
The loose stools could be a variety of things, including food changes, she's got meds for that (for a week). The vet seemed to think it'll clear up soon, and remember this, "as there was no vomiting".
Appetite/food issues: we've got to figure out what she'll eat on a consistent basis - it could be a matter of moistening her dry food a bit to make it easier for her to eat. She has no tooth issues, they're great, she could just be going through a phase of wanting a change in her food (she's been a little - inconsistent - of late in whether she eats; and, since she normally gobbles her food in seconds flat, this was a concern). We'll continue to work on that.
She got a booster in her rabies vaccine, it was due and she seemed to be healthy enough for it.
Then, we got home: she threw up her dinner.
We're hoping this was due to the crating/ car ride/ thermometer you know where (which really ticked her off)/ rabies shot/ general upset in her routine. I'm going to keep it positive, as the vet wasn't concerned, and hope she'll be better tomorrow. We'll get the report on her fecal sample then as well. The only other thing is we have to work on getting her "girlish figure" back - she's a tad over 12 pounds, and for her....let's just say Weight Watchers might be a good idea!
Again, thank you all, I hope this was just a case of overprotective parents!
