Tinks vet visit







I took Tink into the vet today because she has lost a lot of weight and her right leg looked funny. They had to put a splint on her leg to see if that will stretch out her tendons, and they are not sure why she is losing weight. They did some labs to send off. In order to get her blood drawn they shaved a little part of her leg and tryed 3 times to get blood and could not get the vein. So they had to shave a part of her neck and draw blood from there. She was such a good puppy though, she only cried a couple of times while they were drawing the blood. We have to go back later this week when they get the lab results and discuss them, and they will take the splint off then, and see if it is helping. She looks really funny with the splint because she is so small, and it is so big. It will be worth it though if it works!
