Hello and Happy Fall to you all! Boy it sure has cooled off fast! Here in Texas, this week, we are 10 degrees below normal!
I wanted to let you all know that I have been busy making Snuggle Sacks and my new fun creation, Mini Brag Books. Be sure to check them all out and come back often to see new selections!
Daisy will be having surgery on October the 19th. As many of you know her entire life has been plagued by illness and mishaps. We had her spay at a very early age and in hindsight wish we had not. Remember, Daisy has really been a dog that teaches us to look outside the box and to know our choices. Well, she has an "innie". Her vagina sits within some fat and skin so when she goes potty, some of the urine will just sit in that area. I clean her often, it is something she is totally used to. However she is still often battling a UTI or crystals or worse yet, stones.
The surgery she will have will cut out the fat and some of the skin so that her vagina gets full air, like a normal dog should. We have some friends who did this surgery on their young dachshund a couple of years back and they had great success. We hope with all of our heart to have the same results with Daisy.
I can imagine a day where she is not licking or irritated, where she is not on antibiotics or some other concoction to help her feel comfortable.
She will have some discomfort right after the surgery but she will hopefully have zero complications and heal up fast!
Below are photos of our friends dog before right after and healed.
