Various bodily fluids...
OK so our house has been oozy this week.
This will be a gross post so just either bare with me or don't read it! I had to go through all this!!
Wednesday: Lee calls me at work - doesn't feel good. Me neither. Both are extremely tired, sneezy, burning eyes, and have drainage in our throats. He wants Jason's Deli so I go get some soup and bring it home. We get done eating dinner and come in the living room and Lee says "What did I step in?" and he had stepped in FOUL dog poo. Runny and all. So we conclude that Lola got sick in the living room at some point in the day. Teddy is in a crate and I could tell the poo was older than an hour. Cleaned that up and went about our evening feeling yucky.
That night, Lola woke us up twice to go outside and potty.
Thursday: Still feeling icky, come home from work and notice the bathroom smells wierd but can't seem to figure out the source. Getting ready for bed and again Lee said "What did I just step in??" and he had stepped in more icky poo! Seeing how our bathmats are brown and the poo is brown... this is why I couldn't see the source! So i throw it in the washing machine on warm and go to bed. Lola wakes me up at 5:45 puking. Twice.
It's Friday at this point and I went to work worried about Lola. So I left at 10:30 and went home to take her to the vet. It takes over an hour to work me in but I find out she is pretty sick. Gastroenteritis. Meaning she ate something bad and it messed her all up. There was blood in her stool and all that. After conversation, the doc concludes that between the rich puppy food in the house and the steak bites on Tuesday. Schnauzers can't tolerate extra fat in their diet. This means no more people food EVER. Since she can't drink alot of water right now (it could come back up) they put a bunch under her skin! She was all lumpy! The was oozy in the rear and the gas is AWFUL. Makes your eyes water. She is on special food for a few days as well.
She is on an anti vomit med for 2 days and then an antibiotic for about 2 weeks to stave off bacteria.
We aren't doing much this weekend. Taking a gift to Carl's and some dinner as a house warming. Otherwise, chilling!
I am SO EXCITED about fall being here. I went to Starbucks and got a pumpkin spice latte and i just need the weather to cool off a little. I can't wait to buy some pumpkins and bright mums to place on the porch and a pretty fall wreath for the door. LOVE FALL!
Ok attempting to insert picture. Teddy is now 15 pounds, and only 4 months (almost 5)
Here is he and Lola together (she is on the right)
