Good days

Roxy seems like her old self. I think as she is weaned off the Prednezone medicine, it's helping her feel better. She is much more animated, and actually came back to sleep on the bed last night. It's been a week since she's done that.

I took her for a drive in the car Saturday just so she could get out and see something different (the "no long walks" part is still really hard for me!). She rewarded me by chewing up my umbrella that I keep in the car. She wanted me to know she's feeling much better these days!

We have to start the process all over again on March 25 when she'll go in for two days of shots, but this brief respite where I see that she will eventually feel better is a bright moment for me that will help see me (and her) through the next round, which I fear will be harder on her (and me).

I just keep focused on the ultimate goal: a healthy, happy Roxy with a forever home.

  1. Hi There, I have been following your journey with Roxy and wanted to let you know I am pulling for her! I have two basenjis and can not imagine how hard it is for you to keep her "inactive!".

    Keep up the good work! She is looking so great and 100% more healthy in her recent pictures compared to the skin and bones she was when you got her!
