Treatment Time

My little Jelly Bean seemed off to me and I felt like her fearful behavior might be more the result of pain than actual fear. So we went to see the vet today to make sure she was okay.

The good news is that Jilly's spine was fine on the X-rays, the bad news is that our little one has a case of pancreatitis and heartworms (which didn't show up on the initial tests when she came to LDCRF). The really good news is that we caught it and we're going to treat it so that our Jilly can be the happy, healthy girl she deserves to be. She'll be taking some medicines and undergoing the heartworm treatments over the next month followed by some down time to recover. Afterwards she'll be ready to find her forever family!
