Everyone think good thoughts for Gretchen. We did a cytology on her bump on her side. I took her in for a check up and we decided to check it out since it is growing. She is also down to 15 pounds so that isn’t good. I am hoping we figure out what is going on but knowing schnauzers…it might not be good news. She is still fiesty and beating up on Bernie at times so she is happy enough.
I am also increasing her food to see if I can get her weight up. Fingers crossed the lump comes back just as a fatty tumor. This is not my first schnauzer with a lump sooo..let’s hope.
Bernie is living life large per normal. She goes to daycare at a new kennel once a week and they love her there. She loves our dogs but is a bit timid with new ones so hope this helps with her socialization. She is very sweet to everyone she meets though.
Ollie is still enjoying his (note HIS) farm vehicle. IF he can get a ride it he will at all costs.
Ollie and Bernie have started playing as well lately which is hilarious. Ollie really never has been very interested in playing with Bernie so it was great to see them start to interact this weekend a bit more. Gretchen loves to play but gets exhausted. She is still good at refereeing. (leave sound on so you can hear Gretchen with her bark at those two)!
Otherwise busy weekend at the farm again! And HOT HOT HOT.
And while the show was a bust (more tomorrow on that), someone may have been ridden? Who you ask? Stay tuned. 🙂

she is SO rotten. Even Mark is starting to think she is hilarious. She sucks up to him (Gretchen has nothing to do with him unless I am not around) HA And yes what a life?

Fingers crossed for fatty tumor! I had a shnauzer when I was little and we lost her to cancer, is that a common ailment for the breed? Conversely, P has all sorts of fatty tumors on her. If she has to have one, fatty is the way to go!
All the pups look adorable as always ❤

Yes i have lost three schnauzers (one to lymphoma, one to brain cancer, and one from possilby lymphoma but maybe something else). Unfor they are very prevalent for cancers, diabetes, cushings and bladder stones….but for some reason i keep acquring schnauzers 😉 The other two are mutts so I hope they are healthier in the long run! Thanks!
