<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Tonight is the annual check ups for the 3 permanents and the 3 fosters. Our vet is wonderful and blocks off a big chunk of time and we get to take our time, but we are in the exam rooms meant for 1 or 2 dogs..not 6.. So by the time we leave the rooms smells of wonderful hounds and there is dog hair everywhere…some of my hounds shed when nervous.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">The hounds range in age from 4 yrs to 12 yrs… and conditions from liver, thyroid, eye condition, recent knee surgery, and a fatty tumor that is rubbed raw by the ground. </FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">So send me drool that all the bassets get passing exams, that I remember to ask all of my questions and that I don't go broke! *smile* Most importantly that Martha doesn't go flat basset, she really doesn't like to be picked up…*smile*</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Tis the time of year again! Happy Spring!</FONT>
