hospice dog
Note from her foster mama: Rolla aka Chunkies, aka Chunky Monkey, aka Chunky Chunk and the Funky Bunch is doing well. She is currently taking 40mg of lasix and 100mg of theopholine per day. The lasix is to help keep the fluid low in her lungs and the theopholine is to relax her throat muscles. Chunkies also has an enlarged heart with a mass on or next to her heart. She is a completely different dog from when I first started fostering her in July, 2008. Chunkies had a tumor and many cysts removed in the beginning and has been doing great except for the couple of emergency visits when she was not getting enough oxygen.
She is living a relaxed and happy life. Chunkies has a doggy sister (Daisy) and a kitty brother and sister. We go on morning walks almost daily, but Chunkies cannot walk for too long so she rides in her stroller. After our daily walk, we go next door to have coffee with Ms. Betty and Zoe the Shih Tzu. Then the rest of the day is spent relaxing or going for car rides (bye bye.) Sometimes we stop at Starbucks for a puppy latte or McDonalds for an ice cream cone. All in all, she is having a paw-riffic life.
