I'm supposed to be working right now, but I'm waiting for the doggie dental specialist, Dr. DeBowes, to call me back about Pharaoh. I dropped him off this morning for radio graphs and surgery on a couple of teeth that are still bothering him following his initial dental work.

With his being so old (nine? ten? older?) it's always a gamble to put him under, and I hate waiting for that call to let me know he's awake and doing OK. I felt much better about his being at the Met with Dr. Warren, even though Dr. DeBowes work out the the Emergency Animal Hospital here in Tacoma. Couldn't really be in safer hands. And Dr. DeBowes is an incredibly talented specialist.

Still...fingernails are chewed down to the nubs.

UPDATE: Pharaoh is out of surgery and awake. Pickup is scheduled at 4:30!

UPDATE: Pharaoh is home, asleep, sans two teeth. We are now sans the equivelent of one mortgage payment.
