I am so very, very sorry for your heartbreaking loss. --Lucy

Congratulations! Her healed up and hairy tail looks wonderful. Now, best wishes as you embark on fighting Valley Fever. --Lucy

Judy, that really does sound like good news for Emmy. Eat up little one!

I suspect that Piper probably had started having seizures before I adopted him when he was 2, however the adoption group doesn't seem to have been aware of them. Thus I did not knowingly adopt a special needs dog. His known seizures started after he'd been with me for about 9 weeks. Oddly enough, I've had the care of 2 epileptic cats and one other epileptic dog, and now Piper. In the overwrought emotions when Piper's seizures first started, I told the vet tearfully that I was beginning to feel like an epilepsy carrier. --Lucy

Good girl Emmy! You must just know that chicken soup is good for what ails you. Judy, that the modification of meds will help your girl feel well enough to eat. --Lucy

I am so very sorry for your heartbreaking loss. Your boy is indeed strikingly handsome, with a such a beautiful face and soul-filled eyes. --Lucy

Goodness Ned, that was a little scary. I'm glad you are OK. I think you are a brave and wise young one.

Any news from the vet about TyTy?

Congratulations to you and Henry! Fingers crossed for many many more weeks!

Checking in on Miss Foxy and her family. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. --Lucy

Marc, Pinky is such an extraordinarily beautiful girl. I'm glad I managed to watch the beautiful video to see her grace and elegance and her playful nature. My heart goes out to you at this time when you are missing her even more than usual. --Lucy

Hi and welcome to GT! --Lucy

Hello, Shannon, Timmy, Lucius, and Argos! I hope that oyu will enjoy GT and feel right at home here with the hounds and the people. I live quite close to you in Wellford, SC and work in Spartanburg so I'm particularly happy to say welcome to a neighbor! --Lucy

Janet, I'm so very sorry. Bless you and bless Miss Foxy. May she have a gentle journey to the Bridge when she is ready. --Lucy

Marcia, that is such encouraging news!

Marcia, Perrier is a delightful choice of name for Perry/Perri. I have absolutely no advice to offer but I certainly do know what you mean when you say that it would be far, far more fascinating condition to learn about if it was happening to some other dog somewhere else! Keeping you guys and Perrier/Perry/Perri in my thoughts and prayers. --Lucy

Bev, I'm so sorry. Your family, human and canine, are in my thoughts. Sending prayers for Wallace, of course. --Lucy

BJ, here is a link to a fact sheet on your pest that may be helpful: Cicada Killer Wasp Fact Sheet They seem to recommend treating the individual burrows with a dust product when they are located in areas where they are causing problems.

Bless your heart! What a difficult situation and what a heartbreaking decision. I hope that you will indeed find joy in the time you have with your boy.

I'm so sorry. Your Flake is a real beauty, with a strikingly expressive and appealing face.

Though Piper has seizures, he does not have problems with diarrhea. Best wishes in you investigation. --lucy

Neena, your attitude is a striking tribute to your wonderful girl Genie. To leave on her own terms, in her own bed, living her life 'til the very end. A fitting end to a well-lived life. May your loving memories of your girl comfort you and keep her ever near you in your hearts. --Lucy

Poor sweetheart. It is so hard when they are obviously in pain. I hope that your vet will soon be able to resolve whatever is going on with your boy.

I'm so very sorry.

What wonderful news! :confetti
