Appointment Follow Up

Happy Saturday.

Let's get this started.  Yesterday Athena went for her follow up at the vet.  They were EXTREMELY happy with her progress.

She gained another 4 pounds! A dog that weighed 47.7 pounds at the shelter now weights 55 lbs.  The vet noticed it right away. She definitely filled out and appears to be bigger than she was.

She no longer requires her ears to be cleaned daily.  We only need to do it every 3 days.  I can tell you a certain doggy is quite HAPPY to hear that. She hates that part with a passion. 

For her hair & skin, she no longer requires any solution.  Her back is healing very well. She only has a few scabs left and the rest is receding.  She is healing quite nicely.

She still is on some antibiotics for both her ears and back, but it's just to make sure we get it all. Once completed with this round she should not require anymore.  She is now going on heartworm/flea & tick prevention.

Her last round of shots is in two weeks. Once she is finished with her antibiotics and prednisone, we can schedule her spaying.  

Last night, we bought her a bigger bed.  Since she loves her bed so much AND she was a bit big for the one we had, we bought her the canine version of a queen sized bed. She took to it right away and she now may spread out and still be on the bed.

Come back later this weekend and I'll post a bunch of new photos of the girl!

Thanks for checking in on Athena.
