Good News for Tanner

Monday was a bit more of a difficult day than I thought it would be. But the last couple of days have been made easier by the kindness from so many who took a moment out of their busy day to think of us and send best wishes for Tanner. I took Tanner to see "his vet" on Monday morning. I really wanted to make sure that the medications that the veterinarian at the animal emergency put him on were the ones she would use to treat vestibular syndrome. Of the 3 medications I was given, we are taking Tanner off 2 of them (weaning him off one) and he'll continue to take one to help with any nausea and dizziness. At the end of his fourth day, I would say that Tanner is probably 70% back to normal. He's now walking in straight lines, and not so much in a circle. His head is still tilting to the left but I'm encouraged and am so hopeful that he'll fully recover.

I've told all the dogs that we're done with trips to the vet and sick dogs--Of course they all listened and did exactly what they were told because they ate 2 suet cakes left on the counter for the birds and someone peed on the floor--Good dogs!!
