Hi Kathy!

Lynn-Dah started the choking routine again tonight.

I walked her, and she nibbled some grass and it seemed to work instantly to calm her right down, and she is now resting comfortably.

I know that dogs are NOT supposed to eat grass, but it helped her woof up that hairball the last time we went through this. I only allowed her to do it a little bit, and she seemed to know exactly what kind of grass to nibble on.

I can’t afford to keep taking her the ER, at $120+ per visit, and have them just tell me she’s senile.

I’ve been brushing her 2X a day, but she has a huge fluffy undercoat (from her chow-chow heritage), and each time I brush her I fill a grocery bag. Yet, she doesn’t look “patchy” at all. Her “overcoat” is sleek and shiny, albeit a little grey.

After she disgorged that last hairball, she was so thrilled and relieved she did the “Happy Puppy Dance” all over the house.

She may have to wear the “Cone of Shame” for a while during shedding season, to keep her from grooming herself.

Poor Baby! (((sigh)))

Howdy, Kathy.

Surviving the day ok? Hope that cold isn’t kicking your hiney too hard.
