Roxy and Rudy

Today we’re all just worried sick about Rudy. That’s him on the right. On the left is Roxy, his older, but not wiser, companion. That picture was taken a few months ago. He’s only about a year old now, so he’s bigger than that now. Mostly longer, actually. Roxie and Rudy are my grand-dogs. It works just like grandchildren. You get to enjoy them and you don’t have to clean up after them or do any of the hard work. Rudy is the sweetest dog you’d ever want to meet. He loves everyone and is reasonably well behaved for such a youngster. He got sick on the weekend. He went to the vet and got sent home much improved but now he’s relapsed and he seems very sick indeed. He’ll be going back to the vet, of course, but the thing is that no one, including the vet, seems to be exactly sure what’s wrong. We’re worried.
