With an EPI dog you learn to take a close interest in these things. We developed a scale of 1-10 in order to keep a record of how Eddie was doing when his digestion was very bad Sorry - might be TMI if it is breakfast time with you....
Hope she eats ok this morning

Re: Annie - Getting too smart!
BMs have been fine, but still isn't eating well. Of course the insulin dosage is "fun" when she eats various amounts. O'well, we are managing

Linda says I can forget the hard boiled egg for Annie because she has always refused it in the past. I can still have my egg salad sandwich for lunch though.
Will try to withhold her food until dinner to give the tummy a bit of a rest.
Craig Hope Annie is over the worst!

Wow, been a long time!Originally posted by k9diabetes View Post
Just looked up her birthday from her online medical record: Oct 17, 2001. The online records don't show when she was dx with diabetes, but I'm now guessing Feb 2008. Linda & I were living (extended vacation) in the Philippines from Jan-June 2008 and Annie was living with our son. Annie was dx soon after we started our "vacation". Time flys!

Re: Annie - Getting too smart!
Time for an Annie update
Dogs and their internal clock! I usually take Annie outside at 11:30pm and am in bed around midnight. Then up at 6:30am to take her out, test, feed and inject. The 6 1/2 hours sleep just isn't enough for an old guy like me. So, last night I moved everything ahead by a hour. You would think I would enjoy the extra hour sleep, but Annie's internal clock had other ideas!
At around 5:30am I woke to Annie making "puppy noises" next to the bed: "Dad, it's been 6 1/2 hours and we should be up!" I tried to reason with her that we should sleep for another hour, but she wasn't having it! I heard her leave / return to the bedroom. She brought her stupid squeaky toy and squeaked it for five minutes straight. I couldn't take it and got up a little after 6am.
The good(?) thing was we took a few additional minutes walking around the yard, she tested exactly 100 and ate her entire breakfast. Then I went back to bed for another hour!

Re: Annie - Getting too smart!
It sounds as if Annie has got things well organised and won't tolerate any slacking on your part! Aren't you lucky to have her to keep you in order!
