Default Luna's vet appointment yesterday, forgot to tell y'all!

Anyway, it went well, I really feel confident with this vet. He used to own Yorkies, and by the way he answered my questions, he knows how quickly these little dogs can deteriorate when they are sick. I feel like she's in good hands.

Luna still has the respiratory infection,she was coughing something awful and sneezing alot. She had 2 weeks of amoxicillan from the other vet, and she got worse. 2 days so far of Clavamox from the new vet, and she's already coughing WAY less! YAY! She also had an ear infection, so we have drops for that. He asked me if I had any drops at home, left from Starr and I told him I had some Tresaderm. He at first said that's great, just use that. Then he asked if they'd been refrigerated this whole time, and they weren't! The other vet never said to keep them in there, and there's nothing on the label either So he said toss them and gave me some Mometamax drops.

That was the good news. The bad news is that she has LP. It's a grade 2 on one leg and grade 3 on the other He said it may never bother her and if I keep her from jumping up and down from furniture and such, that will help keep it from getting worse. So I guess when she gets big enough to sleep with us, we'll be buying some of those stairs.

Anyhoo, that's the sitch with Luna. She's doing great and I'm relieved that she seems to be feeling much better
