| Had a melt down the other day! The other day Sophie was acting like her back end was sore and she had arthiritis. She couldn't walk far and would lay down. She likes to jump on everything and she wasn't doing that either. She was in misery! She wanted me to pick her up all the time. I started crying and called my mom (at 5:30 in the morning) and said "Mom there is something wrong with Sophie." She started crying because two years ago we lost my brother to Lymphoma and Sophie has really helped my family with the loss so we couldn't lose her! Well I took her to the vet that morning. I just made surprise visit and all she needed was her anal glands squeezed! I had just taken her to the groomer but the vet said sometimes groomers don't squeeze hard enough because they are afraid they will hurt the dog. Now she's great! Boy was I relieve and a little embarrassed that that was all it was! |

| Poor Sophie - glad you took her to your vet and really glad it was just full anal glands. (never thought I'd say that to someone)
