Fevers are no Fun

Poor Gracie has been running a fever since 1:30 in the morning. She woke us up screaming and shaking. I first thought she had a bad dream but a little later I took her temp and it was 100.6. It hasn’t gone any higher than that but hasn’t been lower than 99.8 either. She has no cold symptoms so I’m not sure if it’s her mouth again or what. She’s been fussy off and on and just looks pitiful. She’s hardly eaten anything so this afternoon we went outside and I let her have an ice-cream sandwich for a snack. She only took a few bites but she sure had fun making a mess!

Look at the pitiful dog with 2 big brown eyes just waiting for a chance to grab the ice cream!

I even left her in her pj’s all day. She’s been getting tylenol and motrin around the clock so we’re hoping for her to be better soon! At least it’s not blazing hot here anymore. We were actually outside at 4:00 and we didn’t sweat at all!

Hope Gracie feels better soon. And i hope poor Jack got a bit of ice cream. He so reminds me of Jake. They could be brothers.
