Enjoying life today – Holly’s one month ampuversary!

Our vet called with the results of Holly’s bloodwork yesterday, and all levels were good!  She has (thus far) tolerated her chemo very well.  She’ll go for her 2nd treatment on Feb 9th.  Her energy levels have been really good – and she is really much more interested in everything going on in our house and neighborhood than she had been the past few months.  She’s eating well, too.  We’re so happy to have her feeling good again!  We met with her oncologist yesterday, who said it was ok to start her on K9 Immunity (thanks to Maximutt for sharing his!), and glucosamine, and ground flax seed.  We’re trying ground flax seed for now since I also eat ground flax seed so it’s one less thing for me to buy and keep track of, and the oncologist said it should have similar benefits to flax seed oil.  And Holly seems to like it sprinkled on her food.

Today we celebrated by taking a long walk with her friend Zeus.  I should have taken pictures, but forgot my camera.  It was the longest walk she’s had since her amputation – which was exactly one month ago!  It’s hard to believe how far she’s come in the last month.  So we’re thankful for nice walks with friends, and lots of doggie kisses in our house!
