An Unlikely Trio

We were off and running before 8 o'clock this morning with an unlikely trio of Josh, Wendy and Taylor.
Josh who has been looking a little hippy-ish lately was off to the groomer.
~Josh post-grooming~
Taylor and Wendy had vet appointments.  Wendy's appointment was for a quarterly check up.  At the tender age of 16 years old, there have been a few changes in the last few weeks so I just want to make sure that those changes are age related and nothing else too serious. Wendy will have to return to the vet early next week for another test, but I think and hope that she'll be just fine.

Taylor on the other hand has yet another hot spot.  This one much more impressive than the last.  Her entire neck has been shaved and she's been put on an antibiotic and given a topical medication.  Even to look at it, it looks pretty painful.
We arrived back home by early afternoon, and just in time to catch a glimpse of the turkey-mom and her poults crossing our driveway.
Taylor and Wendy were both pretty worn out, so the rest of the dogs and I all took a walk and enjoyed a really nice afternoon at home.  I hope you've enjoyed your day too!

  8. Here's hoping Wendy's medical will be okay and good news. As for Taylor, awww, that does look sore. Shaving off the coat and actually being able to see what you are dealing with should help, fingers crossed.

    I love the fact you get wild turkeys out there! How brilliant is that.

  21. Poor Taylor, Norma Jean had a hot spot just like that a few years ago. It was very painful but cleared up quickly. I try to keep that area dry but with water dogs it isn' easy.
