Mabel Lou here. I went to the vet yesterday for my senior wellness check. This is me in the exam office:
[Mom again: Mabel HAS to hike in our local mountains daily where there are deer (and deer ticks) and rattlesnakes. She rarely lets me off the hook. And she also drinks water from the creek every day. So in addition to the "normal" shots the average pup gets, Mabel also gets Lyme, Giardia and a rattlesnake vaccine. Please note that the rattlesnake vaccine does NOT imply that you don't have to take a snake bitten dog to the vet! It only buys you time to get TO the vet!]
Well either way, I think you can see the panic on my face. I do my best to make my mom feel guilty for letting them stab me. I cry and howl and dance about. But my doc is onto my antics! They make Mom leave the room now. There's no point in putting on a show if there's no one to see the show!
Anyway, you can see my eye booger in this favorite photo of Mom's from last summer. My left eye is on your right BTW! BOL! Please keep us in your prayers!

You will be in my prayers Miss Mabel. And so you don't feel so bad I also get the snake shot too. And glad your mom explained that it only gives you some extra time to get us to the vet if we ever get bitten. That is a very good point that we have found that some people miss understand about the shot.
Blessings,

Oh dear, you are definitely in our prayers and all our paws and fingers are crossed tightly for you, Mabel!
Wow Mabel that is a lot of shots, but they all sound important. I hope the dogtor can make your eye feel better and that you can do it soon. I will keep my paws crossed for you.

We didn't even know they had those shots to help out if you get bitten by a rattlesnake. We think your Mom is very wise to get you all that extra protection even if it does mean a lot of pokes for you. Phantom has a tiny wart on his upper left lid too. Mom is trying to avoid putting him under anesthesia because of his age so he still has that little bump. He also has severe eye dryness and has some ointment for that. Mom thinks the ointment helps too with the wart not bothering him so much. We hope things start looking up for Mom's business and you can get the surgery too.

I hope your mom's business starts picking up for spring. I'm sure you'll feel better once you get your surgery. P.s. you are adorable :)
Sending love and healing wishes for you, Mabel. You have a good mom.
Hang in there Mabel Lou. I'm sure things will turn around soon. Sending healing energy and good wishes.
Will say a prayer for both of you. You are a very brave doggie Mabel Lou, and you will do just fine when the time comes for surgery, and feel a lot better..
Awww, poor puppy! I hope you get lots of sales so you can afford her surgery!
Poor puppy! Get well soon!
Stay strong Mabel Lou!
And Holly, you stay strong too! You will get through this as well!
Sending hugs your way!
I hope the eye booger surgery goes OK. My Airedale had a similar problem. The surgery was a piece of cake, but getting him to leave the eye alone while it healed, well, not as easy.
