Vet today -- great news!

First, my Vet has reported that Chummie's hot spot is healing beautifully. The skin has turned black in areas but he says that is normal given the extent of the infection. Also, the stringbean diet is working! She's down 4 pounds since her last visit and 8 total since I got her in July. She's now 82 pounds. He says 75 would be optimal but we were both very pleased with her progress. Yay Chummie!!

:clappurple: Yay Chumley! :)
Way to go :clappurple:
Kisses for you Chumley!!!!! Glad you're feeling better!
What great news! Congrats on your perseverance, Val, and SO glad to hear Chum's infection site is healing well.

Geesh, maybe I should go on this string bean diet!!

Congratulations!
Great news! You're a wonderful Mom, Valerie !!

Nothing like TLC and homecooking (please pass the string beans :D )

Chumley must be all smiles :D
As a big time green bean feeder here, congratulations!! It has worked here, beautifully. Throw in a bit more exercise and you'll reach that 75 before you know it.

Thanks for all the support and encouragement! I do think Chumley's current lifestyle is alot more active than she had in the past. She goes on at least 3 good walks a day. On weekends, she is out more often and for longer periods. So I'm hopeful that we'll get the next 7 pounds off in good time. I am just so surprised by how much she likes her veggies. . . I could take a lesson from her!
Way to go Chumley! Must be feeling great since her sores are disappearing, she's a little lighter on her feet! :D
woohoo chumley keep up the good work
YAY CHUMLEY! :clappurple:

Isn't it so funny how our dogs eat better than we do? I was pondering this thought when I was at the Health Food store on Monday...shopping for the boys, nothing for me! 8O I stopped at McDonald's on the way back for my lunch! PATHETIC! :lol: I really need to start picking myself up some food from Foodsmiths! :roll: I won't even buy their yogurt from a regular grocery store for crying out loud! 8O

Since following Chumley's progress, I think I agree...just beans for me!

Do you feed her canned or fresh?
Yeah Chumley!!
Glad to hear she is healing & losing weight.
Good Work Valerie :D

Thanks!! I've tried both fresh and canned. She likes canned better. I buy the cheapest stuff available at target. I really should be eating some too. . . I am way more conscientious about her diet than mine.
