Cassie's eye is a little less tender today, which made it much easier to put the ointment on. She didn't try to rub it off. She continues to be an exceptionally good little patient.
I think there may be a slight increase in swelling so I am keeping me own eye on that,
This morning in all the excitement of the first trip outside the little ones were barking their heads off AND TA DA! I heard little woofs coming from one very sweet little shih tzu! She has always hated getting out of bed in the morning so going and getting her wasn't limited to this period of time but she definitely wanted to be part of the crowd.
Her confidence has increased tenfold. She didn't follow me around this morning but I found that "I" needed our cuddle time so we sat on the couch for a few minutes. It was so cute the little ones all came up to her one at a time to inspect her face. I'm sure the ointment was an interesting scent but they truly wanted to take advantage of her being held down by Mommy. (Their perception - not actual)
I'm really squeamish about cleaning that eye and cringe at the thought of hurting her. I fear I won't do a good enough job and something bad will happen. I know I know - typical mommy thoughts .
Anyway, things are going good.
