Shots

I can't tell any difference with Daisy.  I sure hope this works.  She finished the steroids and today she was having trouble breathing.  I gave her another shot today.  I got brave and gave it myself.  On Friday, we go to the stronger vial.  That one I may cave on and let David give it to her.  I so hate giving her those shots.  She never complains.  She just sits with her head down.  She has learned that after the shot, she gets a carrot.  She takes it to her bed and holds it upright between her paws to eat it. She is very territorial about her bed now.  I left Missy in with her yesterday and when Missy tried to get on her bed, she really growled at Missy.  I went over the pet gate in record time to intervene.  I very quickly moved Missy to the front of the house.  It sounds like I leave Daisy off to herself.  That is not the case at all.  Daisy has the run of the dining room, my office, and the kitchen.  Her bed is a queen size quilt folded up and I swap it out every other day with a queen size blanket.  Her bedding is washed every other day.  It used to be once or twice a week.  Not any more.  And I wash them in hot water with a vinegar rinse.  I have delt with allergies before.  The vinegar helps sterilize the bedding.  Of course, I also do the other's blankets.  I spend a lot of time keeping house for my friends and I love them.  Life would not be nearly as much fun nor as relaxed without them.
