Hi all,

Ugh, I swear I can feel the new gray hairs popping out on my head...........

Kona was improving right away from her remaining rear leg 'tweaking' from a couple weeks ago, then, last week, we noticed that she was having some incontinance issues......then we realized that her tail was just kinda hanging.....needless to say, STRESS. We kept thinking that it would come around you know??? Some shock to her system that would resolve........well, yesterday we went to our vet and Kona got a check up.....and he looked closely at the xrays from the visit on Oct. 2nd...(by an emergency vet at the same hospital)...anyway,

GOOD NEWS................no tumors or fractures.........it appears to be mild compression on a disc or a pinched nerve.

We have to have the deramaxx (anti-inflammatory) cleared out of her system before we can start a mild dose of predisone that he (our vet) thinks will resolve the issue and clear up the incontinence, etc.................just a bump in the road.  Whew...

So, Friday, we can begin the pred...

Until then, we've discovered that taking Kona out and getting her to bark by mentioning the neighbor dogs, or coyotes, etc, we can get her to bark and yes, the pee and poo come forth !!!

Ahhh, our next door neighbors must think we're nuts...................ok, not a reach !!! hahaa

Here's to good times, my friends 🙂

       hugs,

Denise
