Update on Dozer

Mum here: Dozer is home tonight after having his teeth cleaned. He has a hard time with general anesthetic so he is camped out on the bed and having back rubs and snuggles. He was overdue for a teeth cleaning but he did great. While he was under, the vet clipped his nails and clipped all the hair between his pads because he has been licking his paws like a fiend of late. He has had a whopping dose of Prednisone (2 more to come) to stop any itching.

He has had a light dinner and is now asleep. Cooper has had lots of love and pets as well and he too is asleep.

More updates tomorrow.

Teeth are important, especially if you want to kill the hose!

Poor little chap. I think the nursing care at your estate is top notch. He'll be right as rain in no time.

Sadie needs to get her teeth cleaned, but I'm so scared about her going under the anesthesia! I am glad Dozer is doing well!!

Dozer, I hope that by now you are feeling back to good!!! Milk it for all it's worth, though.

Our lil' Addie went through this over the summer, and it knocked her flat. Was so glad when the sleepy meds got out of her system, and she was herself again. It's hard being a dog mama, isn't it?
