  • Re: Lily - My English Setter

    Since recovering from all of her skin infections, Lily's insulin dose has dropped down quite a bit. Her BG levels are holding steady in the 100s and 200s with a mix of 3 units Novolin R and 13 units Novolin N. This is down from 4 units R and 16 units N.

    Even though she has that "sad setter" look here, she is feeling way better

          Lily continues doing well after her horrible bout with sarcoptic mange this past winter. She is now getting monthly applications of Revolution to prevent future problems.

          Here she is visiting down the street with her best friends Maisy and Carly. The Three Amigos...

              That's the old "OK, Dad, ... "GIVE UP THAT TREAT" look.

                    Some sad news today. Our son's dog and Lily's non-diabetic brother, Cowboy, was put to sleep today after a brief struggle with cancer.

                    Cowboy was a wonderful and gentle soul. We will miss him and he will be in our hearts forever.

                    Cowboy the puppy in September 2007...

                    Cowboy yesterday, while Lily and I were saying our last goodbye to him...
