Treatment #2

Miss Ruby is once again on "house arrest" as she adjusts to the second round of treatment using heartgard. This was once again a half dose, but she did seem a little tired again that first night. Another odd thing, which could just be unrelated, was that she was shedding more than usual by Sunday. Could be a fluke, could be her body is still having some shock reactions to the microfilia die off.

She is just as happy as ever- when she is not viewing us with a little disdane about being in the crate or on the leash. She just doesn't understand why everyone else gets to go outside and chase bunnies but she has to watch from inside- which still seems to get her excited. I swear she can hear them hop no matter where she is in the house!

Her appetite is still amazing... she eats as much as our 67# pointer and still looks thin, so her metabolism is working just fine. She seems to have more and more energy all the time. When she is all through this she is going to take a lot of running!

So far so good for Miss Ruby... round two seems to be going just fine, if not better than round one!
