Sassy


Sassy has been having trouble with her eye. First it was watering a lot and she was rubbing it. Then it stopped bothering her so much, but it clouded over. Chet took her to the vet who told him he couldn't see much, because there was blood in it. We gave her a topical steroid which didn't take the swelling down enough, so now she is on oral steroids. The vet says it's probably a tumor. We don't know what is causing it yet. Perhaps the vet will be able to see after the steroids treatment. We could take her to an ophthalmologist for an MRI, but most likely she will lose her eye either way. Dogs are wonderful. Even when they feel bad, they are always ready to play.

Dogs are the best aren't they? Even when they feel bad they still just try to make us happy.
