lady_t_220Everything in the universe is all grandad's fault... at least according to granny. 'Nuff said about that, I think.
Mum took the Roxy-Dog to the vet this morning for her quarterly hormone jab. The vet gave her a thorough once-over and said that she's fine and dandy, but getting decidedly middle-aged. Unfortunately though, her heart condition has gotten more pronounced. Apparently a doggie pace-maker costs the thick end of 2 grand and considering that doggie could expire on the table it's not worth it, quite honestly.
So, the dicky ticker continues as normal, though the vet pointed out that at some point along the line we may well come home to a dead poochie. That is something we've been expecting since we first had her though. We knew she'd never really last long enough to become old so mum informed him we're pretty well prepared for that eventuality.
he also advised mum against getting another dog just yet as the excitement would probably make her drop dead on the spot.
*heh*
So, no toyboy for the Rox. She can't do the swooning lady routine cause she'd probably just expire. ;)
In other matters though, I found a clip frame in the back of granny's wardrobe that's just the right size for that picture. The glass needs cleaning up a bit (It has wallpaper paste on O_o) but other than that it'll do the job well enough and save me a tenner into the bargain.
Sorted.
