Idjit Dawg has passed her latest crisis

Amazingly enough, Idjit Dawg refused food last Thursday (both meals) and Friday morning. At that point, I called the vet and MaryR was kind enough to take Idjit to the vet's office.  They took possession of her and began a battery of tests.  We're talking blood tests and x-rays, hydration techniques and collection of anything she happens to "produce." 

The bottom line is that the tests of blood and stool indicate she had ingested the droppings of some fowl--duck or goose--and her digestive system did not tolerate it at all.  In fact, she was very sick, no energy, no barking, no irritating behaviors at all. She had become a lump with a wiggly tail. By Saturday she was back at 90% and the vet kept her so they could watch over the weekend. 

The bottom line is that she is just fine.  And, another "tiny" vet bill has been incurred.  Smile...
