Debbie and Jim are like second parents to our dogs and stay with them when we are out of town. They came over last night (yesterday) along with some another friends for dinner. Zak and Sally were so excited and really enjoyed having them visit. It gave me the idea that I should have a party for Zak so folks that know him can see him while he can still appear happy and healthy. I’m thinking a day after Memorial Day weekend and will figure out a date soon. Zak seemed pretty normal yesterday. His lymph nodes are getting larger, but his energy level seems better.
Today, Zak was barking and playing with Sally like the healthy dog we are used to having. I discovered this morning that I was “under dosing” him on prednisone for 3 days - ugh!!! I called his doctor and she gave me instructions on how to proceed. This probably explains why his lymph nodes were enlarging again. Zak is eating well and enjoying the special treatment. I’m concentrating on giving him fish at least once a day and eliminating carbohydrates from his diet.
I put my jacket on Zak this evening and he was so cute walking around the house with it on and smiling. I took a couple of pictures which I need to figure out how to attach to my blog. I continue to take pictures daily.
