there are no dogs in heaven

38. I was tearing up before when I finished reading your post, SwampG8r

but by the time I finished reading the entire thread, it was a full-blown cry.

Our little 12yo chi Tweety was going through some difficulties this past week and I thought it was very serious. I actually thought the worst. I was scared. Took her to the vet on Friday and she was diagnosed with either an impacted disk or a pulled muscle or pinched nerve. The vet prescribed a steroid, pain, and muscle relaxant and confinement for a week or so.

Our energetic little powerhouse that was walking around like an old man and screamed if you touched her, head down, before was back to her old self 24 hours later. I almost hate to leave her confined for several more days but I'd hate it even more if she re-injured herself.

Can't wait until she's released by the doc and can go for a ride in the truck with me, which she loves. Tweety is very much like Stonepounder's Sancho was when it comes to knowing when daddy's going somewhere. She absolutely flips out in anticipation. To Stonepounder, I'm sure Sancho is still there dancing around your feet and next to you in the seat every time you even think about going somewhere.

Thank you for the post, SwampG8r.
