The return of the princess

The return of the princess

Coco is back ... from 4 days in the hospital, after she had been laid up by some viral infection! She's nodding off to sleep here — most likely she didn't sleep very well at the vet's — but actually she was back to her perky, playful, active self. Everyone was tremendously happy (and relieved) to have her home, including little Chloe who was jumping up and down and running around and around for sheer joy! I was afraid that it might have been pyometra, because her tummy got really big and bloated. Turned out to be a possibly airborne viral infection — where she got it, no one knows. She's the second dog I know who had been hit by this strange unknown virus.

It might be jealousy.

I wish it were a mere psychosomatic case of dog-jealousy, eduardo. And I wish, too, it was just some kind of dog-flu, jane. But to learn that another dog was struck the same way and had to be treated with immune-boosting drugs meant it was more serious. I was really scared for a while at the thought of losing her.
