Yesterday's visit to the vet was just for a wellness exam and update the girlz on their vaccinations.
When we first entered the office, Gracie gave out a big old WOO-WOO- WOOF!!
Guess she was making sure they knew we had arrived.
The office staff got a chuckle out of it.
Waiting...
Gracie being examined by Dr. J
everything looks and sounds good.
Gracie weighs 62 lbs. Dr. J. is very happy with her weight.
No photo of Gracie and her blood draw as I had to help stabilize her rear legs.
Schatzie getting her blood drawn with Gracie supervising :)
Schatzie weighed in at 89 lbs.
She is NOT overweight, Dr. J would like her to drop around 5 pounds. We want to keep her at a healthy lean weight to lessen the strain on her hips.
Because of arthritis issues for both girlz and Gracies' ACL problem, managing their weight is crucial.
We will be limiting Schatzie's food intake a bit and will cautiously add more activity.
Blood draws to be sent to the lab.
We will pop into the clinic in a few weeks to step on the magic weighing machine and see if our efforts to get the 5lbs. off of Schatzie works.
Joining the effort to keep our girlz as healthy as possible.
