Do I Look Sick to You?

We got the results back from BabyGirl's urinalysis. Just as I suspected, she has a bladder infection and although they don't think she has stones yet, she does show the beginning signs of them developing. Her PH is way off - most likely the cause of the crystals that could develop into stones, and the subsequent infection. So she has antibiotics and some other pills to balance her PH, and an appointment to go back and get re-tested in 3 weeks. Last year when she had stones, they did say they might recur. When we go back in, we may need to discuss a change to her prescription food. I guess we'll see.

But does she look sick? Nope. She doesn't act sick either. Amazing that dogs can hide their illness so well. Her new favorite place to go for walks is the Poulsbo marina. She doesn't even mind walking along the docks. Perhaps she's sensing hubby's desire for a boat and is trying to get her sea legs already? I don't know, but as long as she's happy and we can get her all healthy again, that's all that matters.
