Thani had an emergency trip to the vet this afternoon. Poor guy. Yesterday, we went with H (one of our good friends from WI in town for work - she is one of our adoption references) to Del Mar Dog Beach. Thani played and played and played - running around with a bunch of dogs and jumping in the waves. He got a great workout. We came home, had dinner together & around 10PM noticed that he had his tail wrapped underneath his bottom. I thought that he was "holding it" and Michael quickly got him outside. Turns out, his tail was just really sore and he had a hard time getting comfortable on the couch or in his bed. It all started very suddenly.

He seemed to be doing better this morning so we met up with E & T to help get her mom moved into a new condo. Three hours later we got back to the house and he was still not feeling good. So we took him to the vet. It doesn't appear that he broke his tail... but it is bruised somehow. (He was so cute... he kept giving kisses to the female vet.) In the end (not literally) he got a shot, and will take anti-inflammatory medication until Thursday. Right now he is sleeping soundly on his bed in the living room.

We are staying in tonight, on nurse duty, for our little guy. Hope he feels better tomorrow.
