Another Trip to the Vet

We thought our Friday night was going to consist of cheering the Blackhawks on in their final home pre-season game. But Boomer had other plans. The dogs were finishing up their dinners and I was on the computer when I heard Boo making his infamous attempts at jumping up to try to get food off of the counter. And then before I could go shoo him away, he yelped out in pain and then ran at me using only 3 legs. When we got to the vet they found no broken legs, just some tissue damage around his knee. They told us he was a perfect candidate for laser treatment (we're thinking $$$$), but if that means he'll be fine and no medication will be required, sure why not? So Boomer got his first (and hopefully last) laser treatment while Rob tried to talk the nurse into using it a little on his own ankle. And the good news is that Boo is back to himself and it only cost $45 (plus $66 for the ER office visit)!!!

Hopefully that'll be the last Vet trip for while....
