One Sick Puppy

My money pit dog is on her way back to the veterinary hospital with a repeat of last years drama. Her platelet count is 3.

Yeah I hear you, mine needs knee surgery now. The things we do for truly unconditional heavenly love, eh?!

Cookie used up her entire lifetime veterinary budget in the first two years of life. :)

I hope your doggie gets better.

Hope your dog gets better! Why is her platelet count so low?

She has some sort of auto-immune disorder, at least that's what they told me last year. He says that the fact that it came back is bad news - she may be more resistant to treatment this time.

The thing is, she doesn't seem as sick as she was last year, not even close. Maybe we just caught it earlier. She is, however, pretty good at faking being well - especially as soon as she gets on the vets table. She stops whining or limping or coughing, whatever malady I brought her in for miraculously disappears. Till we leave. I understand children do the same thing.....
