    Nope it's bigger and her eye is weeping, but she ate her breakfast hungrily and pestered us to go to work so she could have her khong. Just waiting for the vets to open so I can get going.

    Poor Moo - hope the vet visit can sort her out. I'm taking the breakfast-eating and pestering you for a Kong as a good sign, though.

    Right then I have a confession to make I have a fat labrador:oops:. She is doing very well on the renal diet food:D very well. The words dogs in renal failure don't put weight on may have been said with a smirk by the vet.
    She's been to see the vet and her old abscess site is infected, cellulitis. She has been given a big course of heavy duty anti biotics. Her immune system is not working as well as it should. Her urine looks good and when she goes back in a few days we will test everything again. She enjoyed her ride on the bus and had a nice walk in the park on the way back. Shes having a nap now after her big morning. She was her sparkly self it's lovely to see her doing stuff she enjoys shes such a nosey little thing. So fingers crossed it goes down.

    That's good! Moo's got her monkey butler well trained! :) I hope the antibiotics do the job soon and the swelling goes down.

    It's how shes always been. Stubborn stubborn stubborn. It's why I picked her when she was a pup. She is a very lucky dog.

    I told him about sitting on the floor and feeding her bit by bit. He laughed his head off.
