Brodo gettin her Swerb on
We had a scare with our dog these last few days, and it reminded me I need to document this relationship more. Wanted to share. :wub:
(Note Callen's first single top tooth. DH is calling him "Buck Tooth" lately.)

omg....it seriously seems like you were just getting married and now look at that baby!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Thanks ladies :)

Steph, she should be ok. We have to keep an eye on her for a few months, and the situation should resolve itself. If it doesn't, we go back in for more testing for the bad stuff (stroke, tumors, cancer).
 
Over the weekend (on our way to see Santa actually), when she was in the car I noticed she didn't have control over the right side of her face. She can't blink that eye, she can't move her lip, and her ear is a little off too. We were at the vets for the photos, so I made an appt and Jordan took her last night. Naturally assuming the worst, I was thinking stroke or dreading cancer and that she was in pain and we'd have to have her put to sleep. But it turns out it's likely a nerve syndrome that sometimes happens in older dogs. Her body randomly decided to attack the nerves on that side of her face, and it will hopefully work itself out over the next few months. There's nothing we can do, she needs to get used to it for now and adjust to eating and stuff. It has no effect on her vision, and they don't think it's anything more serious because her weight is the same (65lbs for the 5 year in a row, lol), her attitude is great, etc. So we just have to keep an eye on it and make sure it doesn't get worse, and if it's still bad in a few months (right around her 9th birthday in May), we'll go back in for more testing.
 
Oh Col, that is so sad. :( I hope things are better for Tiger soon. It's awful having a pet hurt or having medical problems.

And sorry I neglected to say how precious those pics are! I can't believe the Captain is getting so big!!
