We found out this week that our family dog, Bailey–a Sheltie–has cancer. It is stage 5 lymphoma–it’s in her bone marrow. She started out 2-3 weeks ago with a decreased appetite and became more lethargic — definitely a change for her. We took her in to our vet, who did several tests. She was referred [...]

Welcome to my new blog. The “old” blog has been deleted. I have moved to WordPress, which appears to have a pretty good amount of flexibility in adjusting how this blog looks.
