Semi diarrhea followed this morning. Very distressing, so we left them in the rented cottage for the latter two days, so as not to stress them too much we thought, whilst we viewed houses. Journey back 166 miles with three stops for water and a light lunch. Since our return, some loose tummy for the little one. Crystal holding her own! Both seemed ecstatic at returning, their real 'home-bugs' it seems.

However the medication of half a tablet (see above) for Crystal's car sickness was a complete success, Holly was not sick at all and slept on the back in Irina's arms nearly the whole way back, totally relaxed. Crystal was on the center console (lion repose) head on my chest watching the way ahead and snoozing on and off, but managing to 'boff' at any dogs she saw in passing cars!

I believe the diarrhea is stress based and hopefully normal service will be now resumed?

So glad the med worked for the nausea, yay!! But what a big hassle w/ the diarrhea...ugh...that is tough.
