the vet said dharma passed her test

Jun 5, 2025

Dr. Rennekamp was pleased with Dharma’s blood work. Her liver enzymes were slightly elevated and her thyroid levels were slightly below normal. Nothing horrible, but she does need another work-up in 2 months. Even if an issue is determined, it’s treatable. All other functions were great, especially for an old girl.

Deramaxx® (deracoxib) seems to be helping her!

Dharma’s back to her bossy self right now. Her bright eyes shine as she impatiently bitches at me to take care of her every whim. 🙂

Dharma on the deck

Mobility is a concern, and we’ll try about everything if there’s a chance of it helping. It seems like this might be a step in the right direction for the ole’ girl.


Now you know: Doctors warn that sitting on the toilet for more than 10 minutes is bad for you.
