Gracie's Health

Gracie and I make the usual walk to Roeding Park dog Park.We have'nt gone as much as I would like,due to my illness and the heat during the summer.Tommorrow we have to get all the trash and unused items out of the bedroom so that it can be picked up by the city on Tuesday.It is alot easier to do it this was rather than try and put it in the garbage cans.Gracie has scraped her right hip.again.On what I have no idea.She did it before a month or more ago.It healed quite quickly.But,this time it is quite swollen and she refuses to let me get too close to inspect it.She is not favoring the leg,but that does not mean it does not hurt her.I have also found out that the dog food,i have fed her or the years is not appitizing for her.So,I'm trading her back to Blue Wilderness dry and a few canned items from the same brand.She loves this food and I am not going to feed her sometging she does'nt want to eat.What's the point?Gracie is abpout due for her shot for Rabies and her license again.Every three years we have to do this.She is healthy,her teeth look great,no smell or yellowing and or tarter.I love my girl and in order to have her around for as long as possible.I have to be her health advocate.
