So just where have I been lately? (Aside from the obligatory storm prep, of course.) Good question. Among other things, I was beset by allergies, went to a conference, took Bella to the vet, attended a wedding, hung out with friends, and gave Bella a bath. I meant to blog as well, but it just didn’t happen. I guess I needed a bit of a break.
(I’m sorry I missed Friday’s link roundup. However, if you need a dose of linky goodness, check out my guest post over at Kol’s Notes!)
I’m hoping to schedule a few posts today before the inevitable power outage, but we’ll see how far I get. The storm may have other ideas.
In any event, the photo below represents how Bella felt about this entire weekend. On Saturday, she visited the vet, where she was poked and prodded. She has allergies and a slight bacterial infection on her paws, so she’s now the victim of a medicated spray twice daily, in addition to antibiotics and a weekly sponge bath of her legs with medicated shampoo. The vet also recommended a full bath with the medicated shampoo to kick things off. Bella did not approve. Talk about making me feel guilty…

Poor baby. I had to do the same with Rita when we first got her. The “let it soak for 10 min” thing was not a hit at our house either!

Yeah… somehow the waiting makes it even worse!
Ahhhh, sad face.

Oh Bella! I don’t think I’ve ever seen you looking anything other than Nice n Dry. Poor bedraggled baby X

She’s not a happy camper when she’s wet…
I hope you survived the storm well. How does the new puppy do with the bad weather? Poor Bella, Sampson’s had a bout with some icky stuff too, I wonder what’s going on?
sorry hit the button too fast. 🙂
At any rate, I do hope Bella is feeling better soon!!
Thanks! We did make it through with minimal problems. Bella only really gets nervous when there’s thunder or lightning so she was okay this time. Tavish gets a bit nervous, but he tends to just settle in one place to wait it out. (Or, when we can be on the upper floor, to hide under the bed and fall asleep.)
Oh, and my vet said allergies are really bad this year, so that seems to be part of the problem…
