Well we just got back. We decided to make the trek to town and pay some bills. We are going to take the pup back to the vet. We are considewring just having her eye removed. When we stop the meds, she is in lots of pain. She just lays there. She is a normal playful pup when she is on the meds. It is a steroid that we were using to try and save her eye (along with a lot of other meds), but it doesn't seem to be working. I think she wioll have a bettewr quality of life without the pain and meds. She will still have one good eye, unless she irritates the cats again. She has finally learned her lesson. She doesn't chase the cats that are bigger than her anymore. She sticks to playing with the young ones. She never hurts them, she just likes to roll around and play with them. She acts more like a cat when she is with them. She is also the first dog we have had that likes to fetch. She started on her own when she was 6 wks old. We bought her a mini tennis ball and she would bring it to us so we could throw it. She is getting to be a really cute pup. She loves being with Sampson, the GS. She is smaller than his head but they just play for hours. He has always been a gentle dog. When my daughter was young, he would lay down anytime she came near him. No one taught him to do this, he just did it on his own. He breaks his cable about once every 6 months. The last time he did so, I found him in the backyard covered with chickens. He was just laying on the ground and they were perched all over him. He never tried to lick or bite them. Of course, I wouldn't trust putting him in the pen with them for long periods of time. He is just a huge 3 yr old pup. The other outside dog, Ben, I wouldn't trust 10 feet from the birds. He used to be in the backyard, until he started trying to chase the birds. The birds like to tease him. They scratch just at the edge of his area.
Look at me, I'm just rambling away. Oh well. Power just went out again. This makes the fifth time. It went out twice yesterday. It usually stays out anywhere from 4-12 hours at time.
