My Worst Nightmare (and Frenchies)!

So we had a little bit of a scare on Sunday night/Monday morning.  Some of you may remember what happened to Arthur's eye in March but for those who don't, he scratched his cornea and within a span of two days it got so bad that he had to have (expensive) surgery to fix it.  The cost of surgery aside, my poor little guy had to have his third eyelid stitched shut for six weeks and he wore a cone 24/7 for two months.  That's not something I want him to have to go through ever again....especially not twice in the same year.

We went to visit my parents on Sunday and one of their four labs must of caught Arthur in the eye because he was blinking Sunday night and on Monday his eye was swollen.  I took him to the vet on Monday morning who confirmed that his cornea was scratched again -- the same eye he had surgery on 9 months ago.  Thankfully, yesterday's follow up visit went well and the vet said that it's healing nicely.  So fingers crossed.

Since I've been preoccupied with Arthur's eye, I haven't posted the things I've wanted to, which is unfortunate because there's something I'm really excited about and want to share with you.  I'm hoping I'll get a chance tomorrow.

In the meantime, I wanted to share some pictures from a Christmas French Bulldog meetup that Dan, Arthur and I attended on Saturday.  We had to take a detour on the way there because of a road closure so I was a little frazzled and as a result left my camera in the car.  Dan took these with his iPhone which is why they're blurry.

There was also a Santa at the location for the dogs to get their pictures taken.  It's my new favourite picture of Arthur.  It's the background of my phone, computer, and I have it on my desk.  It makes me smile so much.
