Lucy wil live


After waking up yesterday to pack lunches and get the kids off to school I found a nice puddle of blood about 3 x 3 under my dining room table. Obviously I didn't know what to think. But after investigating realized it must have come from our basset hound Lucy. Rod got the joy of cleaning up the majority of the mess. Of course I got to finish with mopping and sterilizing the floor so Meagan wouldn't get into it. Lucy laid around looking rather sick all morning. So before lunch we decided we better call the vet. She was able to get right in. Fortunately for her, she will live. She apparantly got into some garbage (being the glutten she is)Lucy just doesn't know when to stop eating. This time she's paying the price. So after a few minutes at the vet and 2 shots and 2 medications to take for 5 days and a much slimmer wallett we found out she basicaly had food poisoning. Yippee! Maybe she will learn a lesson. But probably not. She loves to eat.
