Teeth Update

**UPDATE**Heard from Dr D. He thinks it's probably just a bad sprain, and will be sending her home with some pain meds and she has to stay quiet for 2 weeks. That won't be easy.

But he said it could possibly be a partially torn ACL, that could heal on it's own or tear complete. We are going to watch her closely and if she has another limping episode after her 2 week confinement then we'll go in for xrays and take a closer look.

So, all-in-all, not too bad of a diagnosis. The 2 week, no dog park or walkies will be tough on her. But I can take her places and we can still do things, just no exertion.

Oh, and Dr D was having a staff meeting when I dropped G off and the nurse just took her on back to the meeting with her. Dr D said G had a great time being passed around, hugged and kissed on.

Thank you all so much for your ready support and quick prayers. I just love this place.
