Mollie and Maggie both went to the vet today. Maggie got her stitches out and Mollie got her check-up. Mollie weighs a whopping 61 pounds. I think 10 pounds of it must be her coat! The vet says she is doing ok for her age, but gave us a prescription for her arthritis in her knees. (The prescription cost more than anything else today. We are wondering if we could get the dogs on our prescription drug coverage). Mollie is 13 years old which I think is about 74 in people years. Maggie is holding her own at 41.3 pounds and has not gained any weight in two weeks.
It was a very stressful trip to town for both dogs. They were both very good dogs, but did not care for all the strange sounds and sights. The only thing to do after all that stress is a comfort food reward. What else could fill the bill?
Two large orders. One for Mollie and Maggie and one for Retired Mountain Man and Lady. Oh come on, we had some stress too! (Our vet doesn't read my blog)
And just to spoil them a little more, a beef rib bone to chew on. Maggie has to have all the meat and fat cut off the bone but she loves it anyway. Molllie gets the whole thing.
