White Dog's stitches come out today! She has been amazingly restrained in not licking or chewing on them. I haven't put the cone on her head since our fateful rebellion over a week ago. Still, I will be glad when her tummy is once again silky and pink.

White Dog is not keen on the idea of visiting the vet. Her memories are not pleasant ones. She asks if there will be a reward involved with today's excursion. I make a promise knowing it will make her feel better.
