Josie is now about twice as big as she was when I asked for help.
She is also starting to wander a bit. In fact, she was just on my deck. Which means that she's learning bad habits from Hershey.
But she's doing remarkably well. -
Josie has been to the vet. I suggested they take her to the one I take my dogs to.
Her prognosis is EXCELLENT! There doesn't appear to be any spinal damage, and what the first vet diagnosed as breaks of the pelvis and leg (without x-rays, as there'd not been enough money for them at the time), are not breaks (today she got x-rays).

We got crazy rain and lighting yesterday, and winds that were blowing branches ( Read more... ) -

Josie's vet bills are well taken care of now--I'm taking down the donation button. For those of you who spread the word, please do the same about the closure. There are lots of other critters out there who need help too.
Thank you all.

Josie's Vet Bill, aka I really won the neighbor lottery
This is from a friends only post I made a couple of days ago:
Lloyd is good people. I knew that. But yet another example: I went down to his house tonight to thank him for mowing my field (it's not done, but it's mostly done, and anything helps). Anyway, on his porch were Hershey and Duke, and a new pup, little thing, docked tail, cute as a ( Read more... )
