"All Clear!"

That's right....Logan had his follow up x-rays yesterday and his lungs and lymph nodes are still clear! No metastasis! Yayyyyyy!!

Now, if we can just take him off the damn Prednisone! Doc said we can reduce the dosage to once every other day and see if that decreases Logan's constant thirst and hunger.

We'll continue to hope and pray that the surgery got all of the cancer!

Nice Fresh Mountain Air!


Well, rainy air, that is! Yes, we took Logan and his little bud Rudy to the Blue Ridge Mountains two weekends ago (I just haven't had a chance to post an update). They had a great time even though it rained all weekend. We had a few short periods of dry weather and took the pups for short walks (Logan can't handle any real hiking).

It was a nice get-away and at least a change of scenery for the four of us.

Thankfully Uneventful

Well, I haven't posted in a little while. This is a GOOD thing, however! Logan is doing great. He seems to be pretty much back to himself. I think the Tramadol (pain med) is really helping with his joints and with his tooth situation. We still haven't decided when we plan to get the tooth issue taken care of. As long as he's not in pain, we're going to let him be for a while. We're also down to minimal meds at this point (1/2 dose of Prednisone, Tramadol, probiotics and Centrum), which is a plus! And "Chef de Logan" (yours truly) is still working hard to make sure we're sticking to a pretty strict diet for now. Now if my husband and I could just stick to the same kind of healthy diet - we'd all be good to go! :)

I'm excited as I've booked a long weekend at a cabin in the Blue Ridge mountains this month mainly for our late "legal" 5-year anniversary as well as to treat the pups after all Logan has been through. It will be great! It's a pet-friendly environment and they even provide dog beds, bowls, all-natural treats, etc. Fun!

So, thankfully, there's really not too much to report regarding Logan. Have a great Labor Day weekend!
