It's been a long time since the last post...November? Hope that means that all is well with the babies and yourselves! Happy New year! Since I last posted, our baby Celia has been spayed, microchipped and passed her first obedience course (now attending intermediate, so much fun).
We are certainly relieved to have survived lepto, spaying, laser, microchip and all that stuff. We seem to have a little problem with anal glands! Oh, boy, for such a cutsy girl, do we ever smell!!!
Celia's hair on her head is already a mess, only after 4 weeks since her first visit to the groomer. She is getting ready for a trip south and we were hoping to stretch the anal gland and grooming closer to the end of January...but we are a mess, hee, hee, hee! I read it is better to express the gland as soon as possible before the fluid thickens, any comments/opinions?
Happy New Year!
Celia and Syllie (her mom)
