Go Molly, Go! Always good to see numbers going down.

Let me know how Molly tolerates the paws if you order them please. I might get them for Bella.

Go Molly!

Good news! YAY!!!

Aw Sharlene, that's great news, for sure! You've been working so hard to help Molly; you two girls definitely deserve this reward!

I'm very happy with it, at one point it was over 2.0 and then stuck at 1.7 for a long time. She is on 5mg am and 5mg pm on benazepril to get it there, but it might also have to do with bringing the cortisol down and the BP meds too. It all seems to be working in concert. One goes hay wire and they all do. Arggghh

I would love for her to be settled in the next week, but doubt that will happen. I'm going to be going away for a week this month and it's driving me nuts worrying about her and I haven't even left yet .
Hubby surprised me on Christmas Eve, by saying we are going with friends to Barbados for a week. He has already booked it and it's settled, so while I'm thrilled to get out of the cold for a week, I'm a basket case trying to get the little miss settled.

Okay, so I have a thing of pawz, it says x-small for shih tzu. Really do they fit that tight? looks very small. Not sure how it will work but we'll try it tonight and see.
I have to come up with some solution as this afternoons walk was a disaster.

Yes, The Pawz do stretch and fit tight, so they can't pull them off. The x-small were too tight for Buddy and he weighed 16 pounds. We ended up going with the next larger size. They stayed on, but they weren't so horribly tight. If they don't fit, exchange them. Yes, I realize that your weather is horrible, so that's easier said than done.

We had 80F weather today. That's 26.7C. I bet you really wanted to hear that! Mean!!!

X-small, fits a shih tzu, does Not fit molly. Can't even get one of them on her. Back to the store tomorrow. In the mean time, no sure Where I put those ones I bought her years ago that she refused to wear. hmmm

We used the blue (medium) Paws for Hamish, who was around 17lbs. I think he would have been OK with the red (small) ones but they were out of stock when we went to the store to try them.
They were a bit big on his feet but were about right (i.e. not too tight) on his ankles.
The lady in the store did insist on trying the orange (x-small) ones on him and they were seriously tight - he was very unimpressed when she tried to take them off, as they clung to his fur.

-23C feeling like -36C for us in the morning
