Wow, being a dog Mommy isn’t that easy. Well, a dog mommy of 5 dogs! haha! 2 weeks ago I had to take Cody (one of my Pomeranians) to the specialists at a Dermatology center for his allergies. I now have to give him allergy shots every other day and keep him on shots for at least a year. We also switched all of our dogs to a raw diet. Which is great for them, but it’s just a little more of a hassle, and definitely not cheap.

Then last week, Rocket (one of my Italian Greyhounds) started throwing up blood. So I rushed him to the emergency vet and they had to keep him 2 days. He had a blockage in his tummy from eating baby wipes! haha! He’s okay now.

And now we’re at today. I woke up to all the dogs playing except Chanel (my other Pomeranian) Which is 100% abnormal for her. She thrives off of morning play time. So I babied her for a couple hours, then checked on her again and noticed her tummy was bloated and hard as a rock! Immediately I called Jeremy in the room, and we rushed her to the Vet. She’s okay, but has k9 bloat which CAN be dangerous in some larger dogs. Her stomach is swollen to 4 times the amount it should be and is packed with food. In other words, shes not passing the food normally. She’s going to be fine but has to stay there today on Morphine and IV fluids. They have to force the food out somehow and she will be better in a few days.

But PHEW!! it’s been a hectic last few weeks on the home front with my pooches. I love them all so much I wouldn’t spare anything for their health. But YIKES at the vet bills. I’m in the wrong profession. LMAO!
