We think we are on the downhill side of this canine medical emergency. We think it is pretty much all over except for the on-going cleanup. Of course, the Boy Dog may never poop again! I got up at 1 o'clock this morning to give him another syringe full of his medicine (canine kaopectate kind of), which of course has a side effect of constipation. He got another dose at 9 o'clock this morning. The good thing was, Jody got a full night of uninterrupted sleep, and after the 1 o'clock dose, I slept until about 6:30. Almost back to normal. We have gotten most of the towels and wash clothes washed, and I power washed the porch. I expect we will find lingering evidence for another week or so, but almost done (we hope). Two weeks ago, the dog could not walk but now he is walking, lifting a leg when necessary, and even went for a walk down the road late this morning. Life is getting better for the Boy Dog.Other than cleaning and napping, I did very little today. I also cleaned the chicken coop, a traditional Sunday chore. Late in the afternoon Jody and I went into Georgetown. I was on a mission for a couple new ties and some pocket squares; not much luck but we did have dinner at Fish City Grill. Oh, and I did manage to drive about 50 miles to buy two pocket squares at Stein Mart in Round Rock.
The sun came out about 4:30 this afternoon. We got a total of 0.12" of rain overnight, and a few traces of rain throughout the day, nothing close to the rain totals reported in Austin and Pflugerville. BUT, as always, we are happy with whatever we get.
Tomorrow will be another LONG day, and you can read all about it here tomorrow night.
Deeds, Actions, Changes, BOY DOG RECOVERY, Kindnesses, Whirled Peas, FUN!
