Post Cancer!

It has been 1 1/2 years since Emily finished her cancer treatment.  She is doing great.  She has gone back to her kibble diet (Holistic Select, anchoive, sardines and salmon formula), continues to get one fish pill, one cranberry pill, 2 gloucosamine and 2 75mg Zantac daily (her tummy has always caused her troubles) and now she's on a senior vitamins from Only Natural Pet Store.  She no longer plays the same but she loves her treat ball and I've gotten her some treat related toys to play with.  Nina Ottosson makes some great toys and they are available on Amazon. 

Emily's eyesight has gone downhill significantly and so has her hearing.  Neither were great before the cancer.  She looks for us around the house so we have to be mindful of her and reach out to her when she's searching or looking which way to go.  Overall she loves her cuddles but whines when things aren't as she expects them.  She did alright during her bath this weekend but she whined the entire time she was on the grooming table.  She's a 11 1/2 and have been getting groomed her entire life.....  She knows whining gets her no where when it's time to get groomed! 

We've had a ton of snow this winter and that has been hard on Emily.  She used to plough right through it but this year I had to dig her paths around the yard. 

 

Overall she's still a happy girl and we're so grateful she's still with us.
