Hi Everyone:
This is a great day for my Tipper, she walked twice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She is so happy it is like she is smiling. She and Toby had a great time. It was about 40 so we took advantage of it. It is so nice to see my girl happy, it's been a long time. Blessings

So glad your pups got outside, and twice! Maybe you'll get some more outside time in tomorrow before the storm blows in. Hope that after the exercise and fresh air that Tipper has a good night's sleep!!

Hi Everyone:
There is nothing better than a happy Cush dog. Tipper slept OK with some episodes early on. She is miffed this morning however, as she thought she would be walking and it is too cold. I hope it warms up some before the storm and we can go. She is back to being bored. She is drinking more, and wanting food so I am wondering what kind of numbers we will see on the ACTH next week?? She just had one two weeks ago, I feel sorry for her having to go thru this again, and then if the dosage has to be changed another one in 2 weeks. This is so hard on her, I often question if it is worth it?? Not to mention the cost. Who can afford 1000.00 and up a month on vet bills? I need a haircut really bad, but forget that as I will be squeezing by this month because of all her bills. So she is worth it though, but it has been very hard coming up with this money. All of this exhausted my savings long ago. The constant need for dosage tweaks has made this really expensive, she will be on her 15th ACTH I think. Blessings

Hi Everyone:
I just realized this is the first winter Tipper has not been out in her snowsuit. She had so many ups and downs and not feeling wells that I was afraid to attempt it. I may put it on her in the house as I have no pictures of her in it. Toby has not had his on either.I am going back to my cleaning, I am having a break with the doggies, and playing ball. Poor Delora has been sick the last two days and told me she feel real weak in her legs and is having trouble walking. I think she is going down hill and I hope she makes it until summer. I give her all my papers and magazines so she has something to do, as she is very sedentary. God Bless her, she has it bad. Blessings

hopefully tippers dosage is ok, so she doesn't need another test. i can imagine that it is very stressful for her. [and for your poor wallet!]
is she on 25 mg now?
hope you were able to walk this afternoon with the dogs.
we had a cold day today.

Hi Everyone:
Tipper is looking out of the window and very unhappy. She wants out of this house in the worst way. She had a lot of her episodes last nite, when falling asleep and during the nite. She seems to have so much more pep now that her thyroid meds have kicked in. I am still shipping the hair here and there when she will let me. It is not a good sign when your dog shows it teeth when seeing scissors! Well the storm missed us for once. We still have below zero temperatures though.I am making some chili today for myself and the two elderly neighbors. I am praying for some good numbers on Tipper's stim on Wednesday. Blessings
