A clean bill of health!

On Monday, I had my follow-up appointment with the vet to make sure that all of my heartworm is completely gone. (I had tested positive for heartworm, hooks and whips when I was in Mississippi, and had my treatments in September before I was brought up to New Jersey). Dr. Collins did some bloodwork, and also gave me a 3-year rabies booster so that I could get my dog license approved without a hassle.

Well, the test results are in, and I am fit as a fiddle! Yay, me!!

I also grew--Dr. Collins had to remove my old red slip collar (good riddance!) and Mom bought me a nifty new collar to celebrate. It's a little big on me, but it has these cool reflective paw prints on it that light up when I go for a walk at night.

Oh, and I've put on a bit of weight since I was adopted....I'm nearly 32 pounds now! The doctor said I'm "just right."

But of course. Was there ever any doubt?
