Good Test Results!

I received Bella's blood test results yesterday. Negative! Yahoo! Her liver functions were all normal. The only thing slightly out of line were her kidney functions. Huh?

The vet said it could be that Bella was slightly dehydrated from the diarrhea. I would think a dog would drink however much water they needed, yet Bella is not much of a water drinker. I have been aware of that since she was a puppy. It probably is absurd to compare her water drinking to Lucy. I used to fill Lucy's water bowl at least twice a day; Bella's, I toss after two days for fresh water.

In August when Bella returns for her 1st year exam, they will test the blood again. Hopefully all organs will be on normal!
