Sweet Girl

My sweet dog Bailey went on a bit of a walkabout last night and was hit by a car.  The driver didn't stop, but Bailey is a stubborn thing and made her way home despite some very serious injuries. This morning she's in the extremely capable hands of Carolina Veterinary Specialists and I'm praying she gets better. If you get a moment today, think a happy thought for my girl.



UPDATE:  After 3 days in the ICU, Bailey's internal injuries seem to be healing very well.  Although she's not up to kibble just yet, she's resting comfortably and should be home in a few days. Thanks so much to all of you who sent e-mails or left comments!
