Alayne hauled a truckload of animals to our vets in Helena this afternoon.  Heading off to the clinic were blind Babe, due to get spayed; blind Dusty for cryptorchid surgery (otherwise known as ‘seek, find and destroy undescended testicle’); blind Evelyn for an eye exam (her left eye is bothering her); old Oscar the mini Doxie for a dental; Snowball the deaf cat for more dental work; and Shiloh, one of our ‘personal’ dogs, who needs more blood work to try and determine why he’s become so fat!  (An earlier test ruled out hypothyroidism.)

I took the photo after Kathryn and I finished loading the dogs; Alayne was just about to climb in the truck and head out on the 70-mile trip to Helena.  If Kathryn looks wet, it’s because we had just finished moving two tons of hay in the pouring rain.  Beth was on the tractor moving the last bales into Beauty’s Barn when I took this shot.
