Mark & Mandy

This one is for Martha Olbrys… Lola has suffered a pretty bad bout with Kennel Cough. Poor thing has had the shivers, an upset tummy (she, like her mom, can’t take medicine on an empty stomach) and a hacking cough. She wouldn’t eat so we found ourselves trying anything we could – including wet cat food and chicken noodle soup.

We were a bit out of sorts by the whole thing, so we would get up early in the morning and bring her into our bed for some cuddles (this is usually a no-no). Here she is looking pretty pathetic.

Yesterday she finally felt like her energetic self chasing the cats and chewing on random items, and hoping to sleep in bed and eat people food. I am a sucker for her eyes, so without Mark knowing I am letting Lola clean my plate – actually she would be a good dishwasher if you didn’t mind dog drool.

We have finally kicked our 3 round with Kennel Cough – we will be avoiding Day care for the rest of the year.
