Poor Lucky woke me up this morning at 5 am with a tummy ache. Then she woke me at 6 am. Then at 7 am. Then I got up at 8 am. She was crying and whining and walking around. She went upstairs and downstairs. She was a very unhappy puppy.
Yesterday she was having a hard time breathing again. A few months ago she had a upper respiratory infection and had to be on antibiotics for months. She hated the antibiotics even though I had them flavored with chicken and bacon. She didn't fall for the masking of the flavor even with a stuffy nose. She sniffed it out if I put it on her food and hated it when I shoved it down her throat. She started having a hard time breathing again and I gave her the antibiotics again yesterday. It upset her stomach overnight.
I called the veterinarian this morning and he suggested I give her antibiotics again (already done) and he said she might get an upset tummy (already has one). He didn't seem worried and said to call back in a week or two to give an update. By the time she returned from the dog walker she was ravenous and ate all her food.
Because I spent my whole morning taking care of the dog baby, I had to skip my cooking course today. Call it a sick day taking care of my dependent. Tomorrow I will work on Pomodoro tomato sauce.
Until tomorrow...
