Our family needs a break! We've been hit with one thing on top of another! Dad's knee is really hurting him, all the stress has made Mom hurt even more than usual and Grama is not out of the woods yet!

I'm taking good care of Mom & Dad,but I can't get to Grama, but she knows how much I love her and that makes her happy!

We have a raccoon that's been coming around and I don't like it! The ones around here are mean and aggressive, and their pee carries disease that humans can get. Leptospirosis is in some animals urine and can infect pets and they can give it to humans. We live in Washington and we didn't have to have the shots for years, but now cases are on the rise and we have to be vaccinated against it!

So our place is a NO RACCOON area! Mom has a ton of autoimmune diseases
and my vet Sarah is concerned about the whole leptospirosis thing. We are so lucky to have Sarah in our lives, she not only watches out for me but my whole family!

Well, Mom's gonna try to get some sleep so I gotta run!

Goodnight all my Dogster Pals!

You can vaccinate for this... and is advisable to do so.

Our raccoons are shy.. and we dont have a problem with them being around here. frankly... they have better manners than many humans to my mind !!

Just take each day as it comes.... it seems to be tough times for so many right now and you have to keep well and REST.... that means going to bed Mum.... ok ? !

Thinking of you all and sending love..

Try and rest a little. Seems like when it rains it pours!
