Cori's kidney levels are still elevated - worse than in December. We are taking her off the piroxicam that she's been on for cancer-preventive reasons for over three years. It's been almost four years since her osteosarcoma diagnosis, amputation and start of chemo. We've been so lucky...
But now she's 11, almost 12, and the age is showing.
Vet visit this morning was fine. Cori enjoyed playing sniffy with other dogs there - it was a ZOO this morning. She got some nice treats, had a blood draw and Pierre looked in her ears. Then back home for a little solo walk, sans sisters, on our newly sanded (yet still treacherous) road.
Luci and Tess greeted her with much sniffing on her return and we're all curled up, snoozing in the office for the rest of the day since it's snowing out (!! - Luci can't wait).
The treat situation is fairly deplorable. New treats better arrive or we may go on canine strike. Not sure what that will involve but it will be bad.
