Sadie Update

Sadie made it through her surgery with flying colors. Before the surgery they did an x-ray on her and found she had a kidney stone over an inch big. Thank goodness we now know what was causing all her problems and it is taken care of. While they had her out to be spayed they took out the kidney stone, cut her nails, and cleaned her teeth. We didn't request the last two; they threw them in for free. I'm hoping the drugs they gave her are good enough to get her through the night because I'm not supposed to start her oral pain meds until tomorrow. She doesn't feel well enough to get around much. She has gone out to go potty a couple times. The last time we took her out she got cold so we put hot/warm wheat packs in her bed.

Hope you feel fast Sadie!

Zoe said...

What? You hope she feels fast? I don't think Sadie will feel too "fast" for awhile Jackie.

Jackie said...

I meant to say that I hope Sadie feels BETTER fast. Can't a dog make a little comment error once and awhile?

Abby said...

I hope Sadie feels better fast too...and then after that she feels like running and playing with her girl!

Maxie said...

Well, all I have to say is that I wish the last time I had my nails trimmed they had put me under general anesthesia.

Zoe said...

Maxie, the last time you had your nails trimmed, we all wished we were under general anesthesia so we didn't have to hear you make such a fuss.

Jackie said...

Be nice girls!---
Sadie, tell your mom that she should boil up some chicken livers with garlic for you and then sprinkle a little cheese on top. After what you have been through, you will need something special to help you get your strength back.

Maxie said...

Sadie, if your mom cooks up chicken livers with cheese for you, I want to know about it so I can come live with you!

Zoe said...

Mmmmmmm....me too!

Abby said...

Sadie, it sounds like your mom is taking good care of you, with or without the chicken livers. Having a good family is way better than chicken livers.

Jackie said...

You can say that again Abby! Sadie I hope you feel fast soon!

Zoe said...

Uh, Jackie...you did it again.

Jackie said...

No I didn't! I am with Abby on this one. I hope Sadie feels like running and jumping and chasing with her girl in the sunshine soon!

Zoe said...

Me too Sadie! Feel fast soon!

Maxie said...

Feel fast soon, Sadie! And also, just think! You won't have to have your nails trimmed again for awhile!

Hilary said...

You are all to funny. Sadie is back to her old self today. I'm having to hold her down almost to keep her from jumping around and playing.
