She is doing very well. We had her to the vet and he was appalled at her poor teeth. They looked as though they had never been floated. The swelling on her side was not a true hernia, thank goodness. It is fluid coming through a torn muscle.
He sedated her and they led her to to do the power float on her teeth. She was very obediant but very worried. Her eyes wouldn't leave us as we stood there. And if we moved, her eyes followed us. Afterward, he gave her a tetnus and antibiotics, and also a shot to help wake her up.
It was surprising how quickly she perked up. She was very happy when we led her back to the trailer and hopped right in. I think she was afraid we were going to leave her.
We see a little more personality and hope in her every day. Her eyes are bright now, she's gaining weight and feeling more ambitious.
She settled in so quickly with Bo and Tacoda it was surprising. Trav and Jackie don't care much for her though, but Jackie doesn't admit to liking ANYone. He's a grump.
