Emma and Chaps Poppins!

Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and Spoon Full of Sugar Lovers…..Well…let me tell you all about it.

Our very own Emma was diagnosed about a week ago with a Urinary Tract Infection.  These are somewhat chronic for her.  They are the result of her being allergic to almost everything, including herself.  Grandma and I have really been able to keep these infections at bay by following a very strict and expensive diet but it is worth every penny for a healthy Shimlette!

So, next problem…She won’t take her antibiotic.  I have tried everything.  Cream Cheese – NO!  Mashed Potatoes – NO!  Well, I guess not everything because she is allergic to everything.

What about a bit of Honey drizzled over the mashed potatoes?

Let’s see….

Hey, I was listening to Mary Poppins when I was a kid.  Not only does she know everything she also had her very own Verna!  hehehe

    Is Emma allergic to peanut butter? I make little sandwiches and no one knows who is getting the pill! I found that even works better than cheese. Hope she is feeling better!

    I am so sorry to hear that Our Emma is not feeling well. Is there anything I can do to help?

    I am always amazed with how Our Emma copes. Nothing gets her down.

    By the way, if you ever read the Mary Poppins books, you would know Mary Poppins was quite a scary character.
