a nice greeting from him. And yes, we do hate it when our fur kids are sick because they can't tell us what's wrong.
I don't do bordatella but have when I went to Texas because I was going to a ranch/kennel. But the vet reminded me it only covers 5 of the major KC strains and there are others.
What are we supposed to do. We want to protect them from everything. It's hard.
Stay strong and know you have friends. :)

Mighty big scare — Kit & Travis, Thu Jun 14 7:47am

Well, Travis's vet visit was pretty scary. His platelets are low, and so is something else with a name too big for me to get. He had a fever. He was dehydrated. And she thinks he either has some form ... more
