So....it's been insane around here lately. Keeping up with bandages for the dog and vet appointments and meds has us going nuts.
We thought a trip to the park on Staurday was in order. So we bandaged up Jasmine's foot real tight and off we went.
About 10 minutes in Jasmine stops to perform her *ahem* duties. (hehe) I look over at her and see a suspicious (and familiar) pink, swollen ball near her puppy butt. SO off to the vet we go.
Thankfully we have the best vet in all the world. When we called, it was 15 minutes before closing but she said to bring her in anyway. If it was just a squeeze of the glands they would empty them. If it required surgery, they'd send us to the emergency vet.
We get there and the wonderful doctor Mouro takes Jasmine and, OF COURSE, she needs surgery. BUT, because she is the best doctor in all the land, she said she would take care of it for us. The wonderful staff at Haven Animal Hospital stayed late and performed the surgery.....
Poor dog. 2 surgeries in under 7 days. We had to postpone our Saturday night plans (sad face) but we're glad she's ok..... It was funny to see Jasmine all doped up with her tongue hanging out of the side of her mouth. I wish I had a picture of that. And I also came VERY close to bringing two more dogs home....
Jasmine is fine today. Much better and back to her crazy self. I'm hoping she gets a break for a while....
