This isn't the next update I expected to write: there is a sebaceous cyst that Babas has had for years that decided to rupture tonight, just three days before her therapy dog evaluation. I'll have to take her in for a minor procedure but it means shaving a bald spot into her side, a couple of stitches and maybe a cone. I just wrote to Austin Dog Alliance for information but I suspect we will have to postpone the big day. I'll keep you posted...
