Is this onesie not the most adorable thing? Of course one is on order for baby girl...
I took a trek around Bed Bath & Beyond the other day....it has been ages since I've been there! They carry a line of home goods & bedding called Bee & Willow...(I've ordered a couple of crotchet throws...they are gorgeous). They had a few items in store...but most is carried on line. I did get Mr. Seventies some Keurig cups...used a 20% off coupon...so these should do him a while!
Our little grand dog Benson has not behaving normal the last few days...his Mama & I were chatting and I recommended she take him to our vet...they will work him in. We have been long time clients...(having three dachshunds with numerous health issues)...we've spent our fair share of time there! Benson was attended to and diagnosed with an episode of IVDD...a disc disease common in dachshunds. Typically, one in four will have a back issue at some time or another.
When a disc or discs in the spine calcify or harden...they swell and push on the spinal column causing pain, loss of movement and in a full rupture...loss of mobility in their back legs. He was shivering...which is an indication of pain...another symptom...so daughter took him in. Our fears were justified...during the examination it was determined he was suffering a back episode. Not time to panic yet...he was prescribed pain and anti-inflammatory medication...and will spend his time resting and recuperating.
We are hoping his back won't deteriorate further...in a number of cases...they have flare ups and may or may not have an actual disc rupture. If a rupture does occur...surgery is mandatory. So, we will continue to watch him closely. His parents have a Furbo which allows them to monitor him on their phones at all times! What a great invention!!
Let's hope things settle down before his little sister makes her debut!
