Hi Traci, thank you for getting back to me so quickly about Abbey! I'm thinking that there are a lot of questions I need to ask her vet, and I may actually email them to him and then forward his responses to you here. We had strong T-storms last night which knocked out our internet until a little wh...

Hello Again Tracy, I'm back inquiring about some new specific information about Abbey. She is now 11 yrs. old and has been diagnosed with serious kidney disease and severe anemia.

Thanks Traci, I think we'll try to keep her at home after the surgery...we have actually been in the process of renovating the first floor of our home & moving our bedroom & home office downstairs, because our other dog has knee issues & difficulty climbing stairs. I think not having to ...
