Another trip to the Vets


Made another appearance at my vets today with my little pug Lucy. I had her to the vets 2 weeks ago due to an allergic reaction, that has now cleared up but she has developed a limp when she walks. She has been limping for over a week and after checking the pads of her paws and clipping her nails she did not improve. Turns out she has some soft tissue tearing in her front left shoulder and is on baby aspirin to help with the pain! We aren't sure how it happened but the vet recommends she loose a bit of weight (she is 24lbs) as it would be better for her joints. Her food portion is cut in half with the other half substituted with green beans, and her treats are now green beans, she seems to really like them even when frozen. Lucy doesn't seem to mind the extra attention as we have been carrying her up/down the stairs and she has even been able to sleep on the big bed (aka human bed)!
