So tired and heading to bed, but...

So tired and heading to bed, but I wanted to post Sugar's vet results before I forget.

Yesterday (Monday) was her vet appointment.  They think she is about 3 years old.  Heartworm negative, much to my surprise.  Her fecal was also negative despite the many fleas she had on her.  They gave her a pill for fleas and ticks and she'll start her heartworm prevention next week.  She got her first shots and they also trimmed her back end for me so now she doesn't have gross matts hanging off her butt.

Today (Tuesday) was a rough day for Sugar.  She's a little shy and really seems to prefer the outdoors so I had been leaving her outside because she seems comfortable there.  Well, this morning we woke up to 3 gunshots (VERY CLOSE TO MY HOUSE) so I grabbed my gun and ran out the front door to see what was going on.  Nothing was wrong in my yard; however, Sugar was desperately trying to find a way out of my fence.  She was panicked.  🙁  I got her attention and she ran over to me so I went back in the house and opened the door and she came in.  She's been inside all day and seems to have zero interest in going back out.

She quivers and whines at even a small thunder storm so I don't think the gun shots were good for her.  I am pretty relieved to have her inside, though.  I just hate having dogs out.  I trust no one.

Turns out it was just a neighbor checking out his new gun, but considering the fact that I could throw a rock and hit his house - I didn't appreciate it.  I am hoping that he doesn't pull that crap again, but if he does I will just call the cops.  I haven't checked, but it has to be illegal to shoot off a gun in a non-emergency situation in a residential neighborhood.  That is extremely unsafe.  🙁
