Puppy Update

We made it to the Vet and back ok. He said he didn't think Dixie had kennel cough, and her stool didn't show any signs of parasites so that is good. ( I know this is a gross topic but you know with her coming from the pound it is nice to know)
He gave her a shot, he said that should help the bad coughing she'd been doing. Also he gave us a couple of different pills to give her here at home. He said to force feed her gator aid and buttermilk today. She's resting comfortably right now and isn't coughing so that's good. Maybe this afternoon she'll feel alot better and be able to eat something.
It's just raining away and Steve is just leaving to haul the camper to the river to get it set up. I made us a cake this morning to take so if nothing else we can sit in the camper and watch tv, eat cake and be fat and happy. Molly has a friend coming home from school with her to go camping with us so for sure things won't be quiet.
