How I Spent My New Year's Eve....




Yuppers!

This is where I spent my NYE!!!


Okays, maybe this sounds more dramatic than it was.....

let's start at the beginning....


My morning start out with Ma 

Stealing my furs!!!

She was almost done with all the fur stealing, when she got to my ears...

WTF?????

(that's what she said, I swear! ☺)


I had a HUGE LUMP on my ear flap!

(It wasn't there Sunday when I gots the water torture! aka: bath)


So Ma called my vettie to see if they could see me...nope.  All full. And they won't be in tomorrows either! pfffft!  

So Ma described the problem, and they said that it sounds like a hematoma, and it might need to be surgically drained and stuffs...WHAT?!

(note here:  Ma remembered that our pal Finley has the SAME thingie on the SAME ear!)


Crap.
(yups, Ma said THAT too....)

So, off we went!

Nows, there are no pictures of this adventure, cause, well, Ma forgots her cell phone!

(what can I say, sometimes she's a dingbat!)

Anyhu.....


It turned out ~  no biggie!   Well, at least for now...

As long as it doesn't get bigger,

like a Thanksgiving Day Parade balloon,

the Prednisone is the treatment for now!

YEA!!!!

Ma was all kinds of relieved, and I have my paws crossed I won't need the surgicals.


And,

Ma was all proud that I only barked ONCE at another doggie!

That is pawsome for me, cause I likes to tell other doggies who is boss....ME!  ☺


So, this is what I've been doin'....

This is THE ear..it's hard to tell, butts it's puffy like a squeaker! bol 


Bubbles!!!


Tree rat patrol


I hopes you all had a most FABulous New Years!!!


I didn't gets ANY margaritas!!!  Can you believes it??!

Ma said they don't mix well with the prednisone, so I'm on the wagon for now!!!

Crap.

(I said that...)


I will visit your bloggies asap!

    We's researched dem he-man tomas when I gots mine... now dey do takes quite some time to go away, but we don't recommend da vetman cuttin' on yer ear-- dat also takes a long time to go away and ya gots drainage evfurrywhere, stitches dat will itch and ya knows dat dey will drive ya bonkers, Ruby!! You'll be messin' wiff 'em and havin' to wears da cone of shame. We found an article by a vet who usta cut on dem he-man tomas but quit and kept statistics and said dey healed just fine if ya leaves 'em alone. Click here

    Now if ya decides to git a cone of shame, I highly recommends da Comfy Cone... I sumtimes has to wears it cuz of my itchies and I's wearin' it right now so's I don't aggravate my ear (da swellin' are goin' down agin... we thinks I had a relapse cuz of my itchies makin' me scratch at my poor ear)-- it are comfy and easy to takes a nap in (I'z snoozin' as I writes dis... yeah, I know, I'm talented at multi-taskin'!!)... an important considerashun in my book!!

    Here's hopin' yer ear flattens out soon, Ruby!!

    HAPPY 2015!!!

      Oh, and my Holy Istik vetman gave me Traumeel fur my ear... ya might ask yer vet about it... I gits dat instead of da 'roids... I only takes dem when my itchies is WAY out of control.

      And if ya takes da 'roids, look at gittin some Liquid Hepato fur yer liver... it helps to keep yer liver healthy if ya is takin' da 'roids.

    Oh poor Ruby. You are a party animal - and you didn't get ANY margaritas? We'll have to have a special celebration (with margaritas) just for you when you're all better. I'm glad to see that you are up to doing your tree rat patrol... and avoid those surgicals if you can!

    Happy 2015!

I hope that you feel better and we definitely are saying our prayers that you don't have a surgery. My mom finally found the spot to get you delivered in our email every day.

    That is NOT the way to spend NYE or any holiday! Hope the Prednisone works quickly so you can get back on the Margaritas. Sounds like you need a couple.

    Oh NO. Hematoma rhymes with melanoma and that what did Kyla in. She was on daily prednisone for 9 years. Ruby, get healthy. Vitamin C helps a lot and there's a lot of that in lime juice. You can get that in margaritas (recommended daily allowance is 87 margaritas). If you don't get better, you will welcome the tree rats because there's no fury worse than an irate tree chicken like me..

How did you ever get such a thing? Do you need me to come there and hold your paw? Can I do anything to make it better? Is it better today? We are so sorry you have ear troubles and had to spend NYE with the dogtur! Oh dear, if I whisper in your ear will that make it better? We bet your mom was worried sick too! We will cross our Paws for you to be better fast! Ok, we did, did it work? Tell me if I can do anything for you my sweet Cherry Bomb!

  38. SherryJanuary 3, 2015 at 12:15 PM

    Oh Ruby, whatta cruddy holiday. Mom has read about other Airedales getting hematomas because we shake our heads hard (why do anything halfway?) and our ears go flapflapflap, hitting our heads and sometimes solid objects that are almost as hard as our heads, which Mom calls "numbskulls." We sure hope the hematoma drains on its own, but if your ear looks like you've been in the boxing ring, maybe everyone will think you're super tough.
