Jenna's vet called me to let me know he was back in town and to assess her progress. I was happy to hear from him as I had set myself a memo to call and see about an appointment.
She will go in on Saturday, the same day I have to take my house rabbit in to see about his teeth as well with another vet. He'll take a look at her overall condition and peek at her mouth to see what's going on in there. Not sure if they'll do a dental on the spot or reschedule her. We'll see what happens. We could use some vibes for a good outcome.
She will eat hard kibble occasionally (usually right before bed) but won't eat them any other time. I have to soften them for her. Funny bub.
Otherwise she's doing pretty well, exception being that she's working a hot spot on the crook of her upper right leg. She's been very shaky and nervous lately (there's a lot of discord going on between myself and my son at present and she doesn't like it when he gets belligerent...can't say I blame her) and I've also had to look after our other dog quite a bit while my OH is recovering from some brutal dental surgery of his own. Jenna gets anxious and jealous when the other dog is getting my attention. Luckily she doesn't take the other dog on, but she tends to take her agitation out on herself which is almost worse. (Our young pup is a corgi sized dog and would flatten Jenna in a thrice if she dared stand up to her, fortunately there is only a lot of sniffing and tail wagging with some odd ear posturing that tells me they still aren't sure of one another after a year and a half.)
I will be glad when our snow finally melts off (May 1 already...come on!) and I can put bigger doggie outside in her run instead of having her indoors, which is Jenna's territory. Both will be happier, and me too.
Not looking forward to the drive in. Hoping OH will be the chauffeur again as I hate driving. If only the snow would go away it would be one less worry. I think spring got canceled up here!
