Misty and Joel's Annual Shots

Last January 28, 2009, Misty and Joel had to go for their annual rabies shots. We were both up early to bring them to the vet's clinic. Upon seeing their registration papers we thought that Joel is 10 years old but we were incorrect. Joel was born in 1997 so he is now 12 years old going 13 by July 17.


We got some good news for both them with regards to their health. We were happy to know that Joel's heart murmur is still on the same level. His lungs are not filled with fluids. Last June he had a slip disc glad that it went back to normal but it is just his eyes that are glarey might affect his vision it is due to old age too. The vet said his legs are doing good too. Over all he is pretty healthy. On the other hand, Misty, is also doing good though her weight is a little over than normal. Her heart murmur stayed at level 1 same as last year. She had a loose tooth which the vet just pulled it, we thought she would cry but she didn't have any discomfort.

It is very expensive to have their teeth cleaned but the vet just suggested to give them denta stix. They just need to chew something hard to get rid of the tartar.

These dogs maybe costly but for Todd they are very precious. I like them too but when I think about dogs in the Philippines they are not taken care that much same as they do here. Don't get me wrong these dogs are really a good company. Todd would say that after these two dogs we won't get another one for they can be costly.
