It took so long for the vets to give in and finally let her have antibiotics, then she got a shot that only lasted a week (and waited another week after that to go back), then it took yet another week for these ones to get ordered in 😭

She was on a lot of pain relief but I’m not happy it took so long. However I finally badgered them into the extended course she needs so hoping it clears🤞

She is lucky to have you.

I’m lucky to have her. She needs to be protected and cherished for as long as possible
