Interesting Saturday
On Saturday morning, my father and I had to take our dog, a miniature pinscher, to the vet. Her name is Abigail, but we call her Abby for short. It was time for her annual check up, but she also had these weird bumps growing by her hips so we wanted to go in immediately. On the way to the vets, my father's truck, a 1988 Bronco, was having problems shifting, it is a manual shift, and we were on the highway. I started getting nervous that we might break down in the middle of a lane, but luckily, that never happened. Unfortunately though, his truck started to smoke for a little bit, coming up through the stick shift. That kind of freaked me out a little. Luckily, we made it to the vets without anything else going wrong. As for my dog, she may have have a liquid build up that was re-absorbed or weirdly forming fat pockets that we just have to keep an eye on. Later, we were able to drive home without having to get towed. Sadly for my dad though, he has to get a new transmission.

Hey, where did my comment go? :( I commented on here when Professor Ries told us to like 2 weeks ago. Anyways, I'll re-write it. I hope your dog Abby gets better and its not anything major. I also hope everything works out for your dad and his truck. Just keep a positive mind :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, my dog is fine. She just happens to be overweight XD. We have put her on a strict diet from the vet of a half a cup of food a day. She is going crazy about it. It is a joke in my house, but my dog really thinks with her stomache. It can be the middle of the night and she can be dead asleep, but if someone were to open the fridge, she is up and out in the kitchen. Then when you are eating, she starts doing these girly screeches and cries that drive us crazy!!! The vet said this would happen, but it does not change the fact that it is annoying. The other problem is that we have to make sure she does not steal our other dogs food. The other dog is really active, which makes her really skinny so she cannot afford to miss food. We have an odd pair of dogs.:P
