Emergency Visit

Yes, we had our first emergency room visit with our little one, Piper. I think it was more traumatic for Larry, since it was him who caused her the pain. He was letting the dogs outside and there is a loose piece of concrete and when you step on the corner it lifts up. Piper happen to step right there as the slab was coming down and her little paw got caught under the slab. She cried for a while as Larry held and comforted her. We called the emergency vet to see what to do and they advised us to watch her for a while and if she still favors it after an hour to bring her in. Well 2 hours later she still wasn't walking on it so in we went! The doctor took her back and did some x-rays! The good news is she is only swollen, nothing broken...the bad news was the bill! I guess that's reality when you have kids! But she will be fine and spoiled rotten! Never a dull moment in the Schmidt household!
