[Dailydrool] Drool and advice

[Leah McConnell]

Drool to all in need! Pebbles hurt her back last night. Last night and this
morning she didn't want to get off the bed. I had to catch a ferry to get a
steroid injection in my back so the vet took us first thing. The vet put her
on Mexicam or something like that and crate rest fir 2 weeks. Luckily a
neighbor was available to take her out while we were gone. We got back at
7:30 PM and she was like a new houndette. Mark walked her and I fed her in
the locked crate. Then she started whining and crying for over 2 hours
because she was crated and I was home. The vet called a while ago and said I
could let her out if she was getting agitated. When she wakes she gats a
tranquilizer with her evening antacid and I will let her sleep where she
lies and sleep next to her with a leash on her to keep her off the bed and
couch. I also thought I could leash her and keep her with me when I am home
and crate her at night and when I am gone. Does anyone have any other ideas
of how to keep her quiet for the 10-14 days? She has lots of energy for a 7
1/2 year old. I am going to take something for the migraine the whining has
caused and half a Valium from my back procedure - can't drink wine or I'd
have at least half a bottle gone by now. Oh no she just woke up and is
whining again!!

Please send healing drool for Pebbles and no stress drool for the slave.
