Pet Food Recall - please read

[Grits]

I checked with my vet yesterday to learn that my yorkie's food is not on this long list of affected dog foods. We were in the office for a recall.

Two weeks ago I took her in for an ear infection, or rather she had been scratching her ears. He tells me it has spread to her eyes, as well. She gets 14 days of antibiotics, ear drops, ear wash solution, eye ointment, and a special shampoo (I thought I had special shampoo, I bought it in a dog boutique). And a halo collar, which she didn't have to wear two days, because I tell her, "don't scratch or this goes back on"! So she doesn't scratch, . . . very smart dog. Anyway, the bank account was $256.00 lighter when I left.

I go back in for her recheck yesterday, and after days and days of meds, we're all better. We need her shots updated this time. She sees the needles, and shakes like a junkie. Doesn't like the shots because she's little. Only 6lbs, and they hurt. She gets one in her hind, and one in each front leg. Then, she gets a cotton ball and WRAPS on. And last of all, her year's supply of heart worm chewables.

I write another check, this time the account takes a hit for $190.00. I halter my 5 year old $500.00 claimer with front wraps, and off we go with orders to have baths twice a week for the next 3 months.

How does such a pampered dog get stuff like this????

Sure am glad her dog food wasn't on his long list of tainted ones. I'd really be busted.
