Bandage Change

Qinzykue ("Kinsey") wanted me to take photos of her visit with Dr. Pearce today and her dressing change!

She is such a perfect houndie. At one point she had to lift her head to watch the process, kinda like she was checking to see that they were doing it right! She is going in for the dressing to be changed on Mon-Wed-Fri. Dr. Pearce is pleased with the incision site. He said it is healing very well and looks good.


When Qinzykue arrived, she had an ulcer-type sore under the bandage. It, too, is healing extremely well. All in all, she is doing great. At home with us, she is eating well, walks well on leash to do her business, but takes a really long time to find her favorite spot in our yard! She goes in our guest crate without a problem and settles right down. As you know, that is where she must stay while her leg is healing, but she doesn't seem to mind at all. (she really is a first class "roacher" in her crate.)

Qinzy Settles In

As planned, I picked up this sweet girl yesterday afternoon at Dr. Pearce's. She is so good and just takes things as they come.

When we arrived home, she met Evan, Debutante, Barney, AND a very small little doggie, Amos, that we were keeping for the day. Qinzykue ("Kinsey") just did a minimal meet and greet to everyone, very politely and showed no interest in giving chase to Amos. After a short tour of the backyard for the meet and greet and to take care of "business", we took her to the guest crate in our bedroom and let her settle in which she did.

We've never had a roacher, but she can roach with the best of them. She ate well, and slept through the night. She is just a really sweet girl, and enjoys being petted, but is not pushy or demanding. She will go back to Dr. Pearce Tuesday for a dressing change.

I'll send more updates while she is with us here in Memphis.....

Qinzy (Kinsey) is Healing!

I met Liz at the DQ at exit 108 Monday afternoon to pick up this sweet girl. We are not sure how to pronounce her name, so she is probably a little confused. "Can't you get my name right?" Seriously, she seems so laid back and easy going, I don't think it matters.

I forgot my camera that day, but I did stop by Dr. Pearce's to visit her Wed. afternoon. I took a few pictures so you could be introduced to the latest recipient of the Angel Fund. Dr. Pearce did her surgery Tuesday and I plan to pick her up this afternoon. She will stay with us a couple of weeks before she travels to Nashville.

Her leg was infected and Dr. Pearce wants to monitor that for the next two weeks. She seems to take everything as it comes. More on her later after I get her settled in at our house this afternoon.

Hope all the M & G go well this weekend. Qinzykue will be there as soon as she heals!!!
