Lady, what can I say.
I DID NOT want a Collie.
We went to the Pure Bred shelter and Bob picked her out, all the while I protested but gave up. He was IN LOVE with her cuteness.
What wasnt cute about her? She was a pup, just adorable.
I knew the cons about them, their teeth, possible health issues but he wouldnt listen.
We came home with her, named her Lady which she fits to a T. Very prissy.
Took her to the vet, she had 3 types of worms, Demodex mange(which was active), so I had to keep Bobs dog home, for months. Demodex is hard to tame no matter how mild. Anyway
I kept her home, had her to the vet every 2 weeks until it was gone, by then she was 4 months older and used to being with me.
Bob started taking her out on the road and she would NOT pee or poo just any where(prissy girl)and ended up with urinary tract infections. I put her on special food the vet prescribed, it didnt help. I started her on Cranberry Plus and it worked. Every time she would go out on the road she would get an infection, so she became my dog.
I have loved that girl for 7 yrs, 6 1/2 of them as my dog.
Today, I found out she has a tumor. There is a 50/50 chance of it going either way, but you know your gonna worry about your baby, so ya, Im worried, Im scared, and Im in tears.
She is going in for surgery to have the tumor removed, her teeth cleaned, a problem tooth worked on, and then I am having the tumor sent in to find out what we are looking at. The pigmentation of the skin is blackish, so he said she has melanoma. We just need to see what the next step is.
Pray, give us good thoughts, what ever, that next Thursdays surgery goes well and that that tumor is fully removed and that Lady will be ok. She is only 7.
Lady Love, you are my special prissy girl. Im not ready for you to leave me.
