It has been a while since an update--but Scout has been good!
I've quit trying to wean her off the low dose of pred. The vet I'm going to said Scout's condition is kind of like lupus or rheumatoid arthritis--it's life long and she'll have occasional flare-ups. Scout just seems to feel better on the constant every-other-day dose and I can't see any ill side-effects (and thank the Lord prednisone is cheap!), so we'll continue on this course of action until it stops working.
In case you missed it on my blog, Scout has been herding sheep, rounding up chickens, hiking, and generally enjoying her puppy life. Fireworks season has begun, which is the bane of her existence, but we give her drugs and she hunkers down in our big tub. We will be in Alaska for the next 3 weeks, but a wonderful young lady will be Scout sitting.
I've posted a picture of Scout and her prayer-warrior friend, Tyson. They've been on several walks together since she's recovered.
