It’s tough having three old dogs in the house. Of course we love them all, and it’s not like we have to spend lot of time exercising them and doing lots of things with them. However, as they age, we have to spend more on medical care. And make sure they get high quality food, [...]
We have a soft-tile floor in our basement and we often have to tear it up if one of the dogs has a peeing accident on them. So quite often the tiles are up and being washed, some of them are scattered around drying. The tiles have our dogs’ names spelled in them, and our [...]
And as the days go on, we continue to deal with Lucy’s Megaesophagus. It’s not fun.. and each time we have to sit her up in the chair to feed her, I am saddened that she has this awful disease. And each time she regurgitates on the bed frames, I feel bad for [...]
Yay! Lucy is 10 years old today! I’m so happy… last year this time when we were trying to figure out why she wasn’t keeping food down, and she lost so much weight, I was so worried she wasn’t going to live to 10 years old. We found her megaesophagus though and she’s doing so [...]
Lucy didn’t have a very good day yesterday. We always worry about her when she doesn’t eat, and she skipped two meals yesterday. She ate her first morning meal and her second noon meal, but after that she just didn’t want to eat. And she seems to drop weight if she eats less than four [...]
Ugh… got back from the vet for Lucy. Angel came with for the ride. Lucy didn’t get any treats at the vet… she throws them up if she does. I feel bad for her because she soooo loves the treats they have at the vet. My poor Lucy girl. The Megaesohagus is such a pain.
They [...]
I seem to only get pictures of Lucy in her chair anymore. I need some of her standing… as she does stand and walk around too! But she is just so cute in her chair.
Lucy gets to go to the vet today. She’s been drinking a lot, and urinating a lot, and her urine is [...]
Lucy is such a good girl and she’s doing so well with her Bailey’s Chair. Sometimes she still worries us.. okay, most times we are still worried about her. But she’s gained her weight back and her energy is back up to normal, and we are happy about that. My friend Christy [...]
I have the best husband in the world. And Lucy has the best Dad. She has megaesophagus… as you might know from prior posts. If anyone has missed out… she no longer has muscles in her esophagus that can move her food into her stomach. So if she eats regular food, [...]
Lucy is a smart girl.. if her bowl goes under the edge of the counter when she is eating, she reaches in and pulls it out.
Well, she did when she ate real food. Now she has to sit up to eat. But she still loves to eat!
