I'm glad I live out of hurricane's way...once in a while we get the aftereffects of one rather badly...I think one of the ones we got was Hurricane Sandy. Other than that we are blessed to only get severe thunderstorms and the occasional heavy snow and ice. Oh and floods once in a great while. Like if we get flooded it's a big deal, because of all the runoff. But there hasnt been a major flood since 1996 in our area so it will hopefully stay that way.
Yes Sandy was insane!! I really don’t remember it being that bad here but subways in New York flooded and stuff :eek:
 
I think so.
I believe they are expecting her to hit at a Cat 3.

The other reason I haven’t been around much is that we had another SAD situation....a couple weeks ago after pool party, Tater’s eyes were irritated....she recovered a bit so we thought maybe it was the chemicals in the pool but when it happened worse this weekend we figured out that it was Sunburn/UV damage from her obsession with staying in the pool and outside in the sun constantly!!!! I haven’t gotten her VET appointment yet because not sure what exactly they can do beyond what we’ve been doing to treat her but she very likely has some degree of permanent damage/blindness at this point. We have “grounded” her from outside except to potty for now and have new GOGGLES ordered that she will be required to wear from now on in order to be outdoors and especially in the pool! We knew that there was risk of sunburning her skin but had never had a problem before now.....
I’m sorry that happened. Poor pupper.

Sandy was CRAZY along the Mid-Atlantic coast. Maryland got hit hard, but not as badly as Jersey. We have friends who lived one town south of the Roller-Coaster-In-The-Ocean. They lost everything but what they managed to squeeze into their tiny car. Luckily, the dog fit!

Poor Baby! I'm so glad you figured that out! She'll look pretty snazzy with her sun goggles, I'm sure. We'll need pictures, ya know!

I feel absolutely HORRIBLE about it!!! I lost my Hawg (frenchie) to an (different) injury at similar age.....I was sooooo hoping based on everything so far that she would be with us (healthy and happy) for much longer....
