Michaela had her 4 month check up today. She had to get 2 shots plus an oral vaccine and she did great. Hardly any crying at all! She weighed 15 pounds 5 ounces and was 26 1/8 inches long. Her weight was in the 75 percentile and her height was in the 95! She is going to be tall and thin just like her big sister.
And what about Hoover? Well, last week Hoover came in with a bloody paw. After a few days of her bleeding and Randy wrapping her paw in band-aids and tape we noticed that the pad that had a small cut on it was very red and so was the rest of her pads. On Sunday I took her to an “urgent care vet” and it turns out that she has an infection. She is on an antibiotic. They also put an antibiotic cream on a gauze pad and then seriously wrapped her paw up. It is supposed to last 5 days!! They also gave her a cone so she wouldn’t chew on the bandage. She has left it alone, we have only caught her 2 or 3 times chewing on it, so we have opted to not use the cone. Well, when we had to leave today to Michaela to the doctor we decided that putting the cone on would be better . . . just in case. Hoover was not very happy about it at all!!! When she walked around in it, she ran into walls and was desperately trying to get it off. Kona also hates the cone. It makes her VERY angry and she attacks her sister. Poor Hoover is practically defenseless with it on and has a very hard time fending off Kona. Here is a picture of Hoover with her bandage and the cone being attacked by Kona. I think Hoover looks like a race horse with her leg wrapped up like that!
