Poor little LuLu.....

Hi ladies! Wow, it's been a long time since I last posted. Well it feels like a really long time anyways. We've had a lot of computer problems these last couple of weeks, and since I know nothing about the computer, I had to wait for John to have the time to sit and play with the computer to get it up and running again, which thankfully it is now! Thanks honey xoxoxxxxx

Well the latest news here at Jacaranda Cottage is that our lovely little LuLu La Rue went in last Wednesday for an operation to have her back double due claws removed and we also had her sterilized and micro chipped. LuLu is doing really well, and healing nicely. The stitches are due to be taken out this Saturday, but until then she's having to wear an Elizabethan collar to stop her from chewing at them. Three times we had to go back to the vet in 2 days, each time to get a bigger collar because she's such a clever little lady and could work out a way to stick her leg up high enough to still reach over the tip of the collar to chew on it! So now she's walking around with this huge collar that's far better suited to a large breed of dog, but at least she's not able to chew those stitches!




Anyway, I hope you've all been well, and enjoying life in your neck of the woods. Now that we're back online, I plan to pop on over to visit with my friends asap! Until then........have a wonderful week!

Love Amanda and LuLu La Rue xxx

Hi Mum! I love this photo of LuLu, I think she looks sooo cute! I agree that she is doing really well coping with the collar, but I too will be happy when it is off and she is back to her old self again. I love you mum!

Ah, she had alot done for such a little lady! I can't help but laugh when any of my dogs end up having to wear a collar! They are forever running into things and just plain being goofy! Hope she recovers soon!
