"There is definite inflamation, but no sign of neoplasts. Further results in two weeks after the material is cultured."
Translation -- He has something wrong with his nose, but there is no sign of cancer. We have to wait two more weeks to find out what the it is!
Here are the phots first the right nose -- all normal.
Here is one of the left nose.
HEre are some shots from the very rainy day we had the other day, before the real rain hit. In these shots there had been a storm and it passed leaving only a light drizzle. Of course the older dogs have more sense than the younger ones. When it is nasty outside they go out, do their business and go right back inside. Here is Ivory displaying a lack of sense about getting out of the rain.
Here are Prince, Bernie and Ginger on the patio, waiting to come in, but distracted by something in the next yard.
What ever interested those three also interested these three, but it whatever it was was leaving as I took this picture. Ebony is heading in and the other two have clearly lost interest in whatever it was that caught it in the first place.
The last to come in and the wettest dog of this outting was Pea Pod. She and Ivory are our two mud muffins who love to get wet and muddy.
Druing the worst of the storm, water was two inches deep at the shallowest spots in the yard. The thunder and lightning were ferocious and we lost power for about two hours. Unfortunately I didn't think to take any pictures then. Dottie was terrified of the lightning and thunder. Poor Freckles used to be afraid too. Dottie spent most of the storm in either my lap or Cheryl's lap. Freckles would have been there with her. Kaiser loved the storms and would scare us because she would stay out in the ferocious rain, romping through the puddles. She would come inside with the biggest grin, looking like a drowned rat. She would put her paws on my chest and lick my face as I toweled her dry. Trying to towel Ivory dry is like trying to dry a slippery eel, while Pea Pod for some reason cowers in the corner betwen the wall and bookcase as you dry her. Prince is so poised. He sits as you towel his face and body and then lifts first one paw then the other, then he stands as you do the rear legs and feet. Of all the active dogs we now have, he is the easiest to care for and dry. Old Dottie has one interest and one interest only, getting back on her sofa.
