October 25, 2011 ~ Tuesday

Well, today started out cooler and sunny and we had no idea it was going to end so badly.

Judy had Lucy and Ruby in her arms, tripped over the broken concrete outside our RV and fell, scrapping her knees until they bled down her shins, and dropping both of the dogs on the cement. 

Lucy came out of it ok but poor little three pound Ruby is  now at the Emergency Vet's for the night with a broken right foot.  It broke 2 and maybe 3 bones...it wasn't broken as badly as the vet was afraid it may have been and he is hoping it will heal up with just a splint and not need surgery.  We can pick her up at 7 am in the morning.  We will have to take her back weekly to have her splint lining changed and so they can check out how her foot is healing.  All this to the tune of 1300 dollars.........that HURT too!  (Lucy had her teeth cleaned this month to the tune of 800 dollars....)  We REALLY need to take the time to sign up for pet insurance!!




Judy is sore from the fall and we have cleaned her knees and bandaged them up.  She cried and cried over dropping the dogs but I keep telling her that's why they call them "accidents" and "accident happen".  It's just so sad for her....those dogs are her life!
