Smokey Visits the Veterinarian

Poor Smokey. He has been suffering from a grass allergy which causes him to scratch and gnaw on his feet. Last summer he did this and I took him to the City Veterinary Hospital to get a shot of cortisteroid which helped a lot. So today we went back to see Dr. Thomas who gave him another shot.


Smokey was very good about all this but looked a little offended. He thought we were going for a fun ride in the car and then I let this man stick him with a needle. Oh well, we gave him a little hamburger left over from dinner and all was forgiven.

Tired Dog

Smokey has slept a lot since the grandkids left. He enjoyed the attention but they wore him out.
