Buddy

Today I took Buddy for a visit to his "regular" vet, i.e., not to the cancer clinic.

He was due for some "routine" care, tests and such. I'm happy to report that he's doing well, except ... he is developing some cataracts. :-( Makes me sad.

And because he has a bit of a heart murmur, I asked them to check his blood pressure. Yes, they do this for dogs too! They have what they call a "critter cuff" (how cute is that???) that goes on the paw ... It was a little tough to get the readings because Buddy was moving around, he loves to get up and kiss everyone. He loves people! So we had to hold him still.

Next week he goes for his bi-monthly check-up with the oncologist, including lung X-rays. I'm already nervous....

Hope your week is going well ... smile, the weekend is almost here!
