Buttercup update

Apparently after being quarantined and checked out, she was put to sleep. She was rabid. So our choice to take her to the shelter was a wise choice. A big thank you to all of our friends, and their support of our decision. Bryce is okay, Cade is okay, and Annie is okay. And thanks to our friend Mike and letting us know before we had taken the kids to the hospital that they don't do the needle in the stomach thing any more-WHEW!!!! All they do is give the kids a tetanus shot, clean the wounds, and give antibiotics.....unless they get worse. Fortunately, the kids didn't get worse.

Wow! What a story ending! SO glad you all took her in. And what's more important--SO glad the kids are ok! Didn't know that they had changed rabies procedures, but for your kids' sake, I'm glad they didn't have to do it the old fashioned way. Again--wow!

Mia-

You did the right thing! Our children always come first in situations like that.

Hugs,

Thanks for inviting me to your blog! I was bummed when I got locked out. So sorry to hear about the dog, that sounds tough and I am glad that the kids are o.k. Scary!
