Last weekend the Grose's were in town for a fishing contest that my dad came up with. Uncle Marty won and my dad came in second. Even Theresa was out there with a fishing pole! The guys (Marty, dad, Matthew, and Danny) took a break to come over our house to help Kyle move a shed. I wasn't allowed to help, as I've been put on orders not to try to lift anything heavy. Anyhow, uncle Marty noticed something that I had been thinking. Savannah has been losing a lot of weight!
Savannah (our 11 year old puppy) has been losing weight (25 pounds in 9 months to be exact). I was hoping that it was because since we've had Reggie, she's been getting less "people food" and going for more walks, but 25 pounds seems like a lot for an 80 pound dog. I looked into causes for rapid weight loss in dogs online and found that heartworm is a common cause. I googled heartworm and went to images and had my first case of morning sickness. I still feel ill to my stomach after seeing the images!
I guess that's not the type of morning sickness that I'm suppose to be experiencing, but if pregnancy morning sickness is even half as bad as I felt when I saw those images, I think I'm just fine without it.
