Three-Letter Acronyms & Four-Letter Words

So this morning, Emma jumped down off the bed (I think she went halfway down the little doggy stairs we have in the bedroom, then jumped).

However, since I was going to be getting up soon anyway I didn't feel like getting up to pick her up and put her on the bed. Did I forget to mention we was doing this little Emma style bark whine thing?

And then out of no where Emma appeared on the bed.

SHE JUMPED ON TO THE BED!!!

This amazed me, even though she has been pretty much back to normal since her FCE episode, this was the first time I saw her jump up onto the bed since.

I mean the bed it pretty tall and while Emma isn't tiny like Curly, she hasn't ever been as vertically capable as our dog Buddy.

Still amazed by the feat of doggy acrobatics I asked Gina she knew that Emma could jump up on the bed. And as most things related to the dogs, I am the last to know. She told me that Emma has been doing that for a while.

Oh well, I was very excited and proud that my little schnauzer mix is probably at about 95% of her normal self after her FCE episode. The last 5% relates to the fact that she doesn't have control over her back left leg as much as she used to and that she still has her left front paw turned over more than we would like.

Lunch is about over back to the grind.

When Jeremy and I got home, Emma greeted me from the couch.

I asked Gina if she had Emma sitting on the couch, as normally Emma loves the couch and can more often than not be caught sort of laying over part of the couch, either the back or one of the arm rests. Gina informed me that Emma must have jumped up onto the couch as Emma had been in her kennel before this.

I put Emma on the floor in the living room (on the rug) and she began to walk around, pretty much like normal.

She tried jumping up on to Jeremy's leg but lost her balance a little.

A definite improvement.

A couple of days back I stated that it was not Emma's spine, I am incorrect on that.

FCE is apparently an embolism that happens in the spine, or one could say a 'stroke of the spine'.

So my statement that it was not a tumor or something bad that happened with her discs or what not in her spine was correct.

However, it was actually something with her spine.
