Don't you love when they play with toys that they had been ignoring?
Sounds like our miss is a happy girl

I rather hope the wedding will be like Father of the Bride

OMG, I had visions of Steve Martin and disaster for a moment there! (I LOVE that movie)

I know that the feeling is there, exactly like the movie, always his little girl, but so proud and not wanting to let go of that time in their lives.

Hubby bought about 30 umbrellas for the oldest girls wedding, and figure if he did that, it wouldn't rain (outdoor wedding) and if he didn't do it, it would pour and ruin everything. Well, he was right, we had a umbrellas Everywhere and no rain! thank goodness, it worked!

I wonder if it will snow..... We just booked the flights for the oldest daughter and her family to come for the wedding.

I think I'll have molly home for that week but take her to the kennel for the day of the wedding and the day after. Just would be way too stressful for her to have people she doesn't know here and others in and out of the house. She does love the kids to all be home though. She is pack happy when the girls and their guys are home.

She is definitely very happy girl right now.

Not that one, the original movie with Spencer Tracy and they had the wedding at home and the house looked beautiful! I was picturing that.

So happy Molly is feeling so happy. I always want dogs to be happy, they are so joyful.

Full house may cause some stress. Molly seems not to be bothered much about her kennel stays, they probably pamper her.

What a sweet story about the umbrellas!

Hope you feel better soon.

Hi Sharlene, Glad you had a nice vacation...sorry you husband is sick and now your'e under the weather..ugh...this time if year it's hard to shake things.
So nice to here Molly is being cute and bouncy...she must have been so happy to see you guys when you got back.
Have you noticed improvement with the Trilo? I guess playing with toys and feeling chipper is a great sign...
Just thought I'd say hi...don't get on here as much as I should..I seem to never catch up with everyone's posts..especially all the new people! Hope you have a nice weekend! When is the wedding??

ACTH scheduled for this friday. This is 2 weeks after increase her trilostane by 3mg to 11mg.

boy I'd like to not have to do acth tests so often.

She is acting fine, being her bossy little self.

Not please with the cold out there and can't say I blame her. Did you know Paws also makes coats? I got molly one and it is now her (or by her maybe I mean me) favorite coat. Easy to put on and wear with the halter over it. Not so bulky that it weighs her down but still is warm.

hugs all

We wouldn't want her any other way.

Have you seen changes with the new dose? Is it normal to go up so much...or what seems a lot? Just curious what we have in store for us! Is it generally a slow process with the trilostane? Kaibo has been doing well so far, no changes yet, but it's only been 4 days. Good luck with the ACTH.

Ok...I went back a bit. I see you went from 8mg to 11mg. I need Coles notes on everyone since I've been gone for so long!

[Budsters Mom]

Yes Nikki, I went back and checked too. Molly went from 8 mg to 11 mg. Trilostane. The 3 mg. below are a typo.

[molly muffin]

I meant we had increased 3 mg. actually that isn't much if an increase. We started low at 8 mg. My vet started with a 1 mg/1kg ratio.

No changes noted and doubt the cortisol will have changed much.

It is a much lengthier process to get the vetroyl dosage where it needs to be it seems.
