Roxey went to the vet

Hope Roxey feels better. Bear was on Deramax and a gluc/chondroitin for years which kept him fairly stable, he had severe arthritis when I adopted him at 5.

Well, I'm an idiot

I just realized what time it was and started getting ready to take her in...duh, I fed her this morning

So now it's next Tuesday. Wish me luck in remembering lol.

She's been doing better than before last weeks appointment and I've only had to give her a total of 2 pills so I'm happy about that.
I'm really glad we don't have any types of steps for her to have to worry about. But then again this is how she acts most of the time. Once she gets that adrenaline going she's a wild woman

Roxey is probably not the least bit upset!
Oh, well ...

Aw, give Roxey a big big hug from me, I do miss her. I'll keep her in my prayers. That treatment sounds very interesting, I never heard of that before. thanks for the link!

Poor Roxey... Sounds like she's feeling a lil' better though. She sure looked peppy in the video. I had to laugh at how her and Bon play. It's just like the Collies. Spin in a circle, barking and darting at each other, but without actually touching. Don't wanna get too rough, cuz somebody might get hurt.

How's Roxey?

**bckrazy** · 02-07-2010, 02:53 AM

I'm so glad to hear that Roxey is feeling better! I love that Husky girl.

Gonzo is getting sore, too... I give him gluco/chondro just as a preventative. All of the original PT dogs are getting older! But they still look amazing, if you ask me.

Lol, I love the video.

Precious doggies

I always worry that I'm going to forget and feed the dog that is going in. Lol I hope all goes well, and it looks like she's doing alright

Well in spite of all the snow that's falling we made it to the vets office this morning.
I remembered no food and water and the appointment (yippe for me

) I had to put a note in her dog food bowl. Hey, whatever works!

I hated leaving her but of course she didn't have a problem leaving me. She happily went with the vet tech. I guess I should be happy she doesn't mind going with other people.

Anyway, please keep her in your thoughts and I'll update when I get my girl back home!

**MonicanHonda** · 02-09-2010, 12:25 PM

Good luck Roxey!

Roxey - you goofed up!

Shudda *eaten* that note!

She'll be *phine* at the White Coats!
Loose a tooth or two in the process? NunBuddy will notice, believe me!
SmokeMutt lost FIVE in his dental adventure ...
and he STILL looks like *JAWS* every night when I toss in his Glucosamine.

Try not to Worry, Mom.
But since you will - we'll all Worry with you.

Right about now I'm sure she wishes she would have lol.

Of course it all went fine and she's home now.
She's still pretty out of it, but not enough to let you know her mouth is sore if you touch it :low growl:
Fortunately she didn't loose any teeth but the vet said probably within the next few years she'll loose 1-2. The one they were concerned about has 3 roots-2 of them being good so it makes for a strong tooth, so she left it.
She said for her age she has wonderful looking teeth and they cleaned up nice

I snapped a couple pics when I got home. Huney was happy to see her sissy!
Man, she looks so stoned

Thanks for all the good thoughts!
