The husband and I took Sofie to the vet today. She acts like everything is fine, but she's piddling a lot. Wednesday night was 7 times in 14 hours. And it's piddling, not just marking. I wigged out about the possibility of bad pet food but there are over 20 things that can cause "excessive uriniation" in dogs. Whatever it is, Dr Liz didn't find anything in a cursory exam. We'll have to wait for the blood and urine tests to come back. In the meantime, she's still getting the chicken and brown rice instead of dog food.
Have to say, Sofie hated every minute at the vet's office. From the time we walked in her tail was down. Then when the vet tech came out to get us, she hunkered down and didn't want to go. I had to pick her up before she got dragged away. She kept hiding her face while the tech did his thing and when he left, she perked up as if to say "he's gone, we're done, let's go". Poor girl. It's necessary but it's so hard to do to them. And tomorrow she's going to the groomers, which she also hates. It's a bad weekend to be Sofie.
