Just Walkin the Dog

Proof that getting sharp pointy stickers out of Ellie's back feet hurt me much more than her.

Seriously, she has yelped before but this time I got stuck (and made that face while my friend snapped the camera) and my dog is just chillin, like, "yeah my momma is my personal assistant"

So yesterday we went for a big long walk on the river. It is the first real walk she has had since she got sick. I had been keeping her pretty still bc her spleen was swollen. But she is doing well and we get final bloodwork tomorrow to see if we are cured! and then hopefully she can get off the steriods bc they maker her sooooo HUNGRY. And THIRSTY.

Yesterday, she finished her supper and whimpered...then she just sat at her empty bowl and howled bc it was all gone!!!
