Yesterday I spent $96.80 at the Vet's office.  Bandit has been rubbing forcefully at his right eye so I took him in to make sure he hadn't injured the cornea.  The Dr. stained his eye and found no damage and checked the intra ocular pressure again (still good).  She prescribed a small amount of carprofen for discomfort.  We will be continuing the eyedrops and monitoring the pain.  YTD Expenses:  $7533.

Last night I spent $346.99 at the Vet ER on Bandit.  It was a scary evening - Walter decided he needed to 'correct' Bandit by mouthing him over the shoulders and wiping the floor with him.  Bandit's ensuing behavior and symptoms scared us so badly we took him to the Vet ER and I was convinced we wouldn't be bringing him home.  After the exam and radiographs to check for broken bones or lung damage it was decided that Bandit had probably had a panic attack.  He finally settled down and caught his breath and today he is fine.  His right eye is bruised and swollen, probably from banging himself around under the table.   Walter left no wounds, just a lot of slobber and a big scare for the little blind dog.  The ER bill included the exam, radiographs, cerenia injection and ointment for the eye.  Relief  - priceless!  I also spent $43.45 at the compounding pharmacy for benazepril for Bandit.  YTD Expenses:  $5668.23.
