Sorry to report I had to make a vet run with Macy today. I took them outside and Macy did #2 in front of me and it was solid red at first, then the other streamed out mixed with red. It was all liquid and nothing solid at all. I always ask myself, “if my dogs did this, would I take them to the vet immediately?” My internal answer always makes my decision for me with clients pets. The vet couldn’t find anything as there was nothing left in her to scan. She wasn’t showing any stomach sensitivity with touch and her temp is normal. Good signs! She’ll be on a restricted, bland diet for a few days plus a few meds. I’m hoping this will clear her up.

The puppies are good and no more digging….for now. As I walk around the yard, I can see it’s one of their favorite activities. The girls are fine too and eating well. The dried mud has been cleaned off of Slash as well as the bark collar. He must have really slung it.
I’m not so sure two of your Vinca’s are going to make it. I’ve taken all three down and set on the ground to help hold the water better, but they’re pretty stressed from the heat. I’m not sure why the third one looks so good and the other two are struggling. Some of my annuals are taking a huge hit too, specifically my impatiens (I have a huge shaded porch). If we keep having summers like this, our local Master Gardeners are going to have to come up with new heat tolerant plants for OK. Cactus is a good selection, I would think.
By the way, a box was delivered and is located in the office. I’m pretty sure you wouldn’t miss it.

Slash and my pretty, hot pink cast.
I’ve figured out each dogs game now….as if it would take me long. Jackson loves to do the charging toro game. Sadly, I left my cape at home.
Abby, I noticed, goes after her favorite prey….the water stream from the hose. I finally had to turn it off as she was becoming a bit OCD with it. Never good for a dog’s psyche.

Chloe’s loving the heat….NOT!
