Happy Birthday!

Today is Brewski's 5th birthday! He's getting so old. His new nickname? Old gray beard!

For Brewski's birthday.... he's getting.... .DEWORMED! Ha, great isn't it. Here's the story-
Maggie (our foster dog) had been having accidents in her crate, and couldn't make it through the night without needing out. Often twice a night. Certainly not normal behavior for a dog (Maggie is also about 5 years old). On Monday she had multiple accidents and a rough night. So Tuesday morning we called the vet. Maggie went in, along with special sample from the yard (you get the idea....)
They gave Maggie an antibiotic to help with her tummy trouble and we started her on a rice diet for a couple of days. Tuesday was a much better day, and after her trip to the vet she seemed better already. Well the results of her tests came back today. Maggie is a SICK dog. Let's see, whipworm, roundworm, and hookworm. The poor girl, she has been such a trooper, I think her new nickname is Magatron! Not sure we told you, but she also had an eye infection when we picked her up.
So here's what we have going on at our house....
Hopefully soon we will have 2 happy healthy pups!
