    I hope that she'll continue to improve and to regain your trust. Good luck.

    Lacey is doing much better! Today I have not given her any chamomile or slippery elm. This morning she ate, licking canned food off a plate. At lunch - which is when I normally feed the dogs - she ate chicken and orzo (I made a chicken soup for Dad and I, gave her some) again licking it up from the plate. She is bright eyed and smiling, and did her bounce twice today. On our afternoon walk, when I was doling out pieces of cheese, she took one! She was very cautious with it, but it went down!

    Tomorrow morning she has her post surgery recheck. I know she will be nervous going in the vet's and I plan to take treats with us for the staff and vet to give to her. I will have to give the vet all the info as to what happened.

    Lacey saw her vet for the post op visit this morning. Healing is WELL on the way! She can eat moistened kibble now.

    I explained all the problems we had, and the chamomile and slippery elm we used. Vet has noted NOT to give her buprenephrine again. They can use Metacam as an injectable in future.

    I took along a baggie of cheese and had the vet give her 2; vet did see how stressed Lacey was just being there, and understands we need to work on that.

    After, we went to a park and Lacey and I had a lovely walk. Been ages since it was just the 2 of us! Then this afternoon she came with me for the usual walk with Sugar, Tasha and Willy. I know one little doggie girl who is going to sleep well tonight ha haaa.
