eva in action

here's eva in her role as mighty dog! unfortunately, she won't be fetching for a couple of weeks. she was spayed today, and there were some complications. apparently she had an old injury on her spleen that started bleeding during surgery and had to be removed. the vet said if they had not found this, she could have ruptured it in the future and bled to death internally without us ever knowing! phew, i'm thankful they caught that. poor thing threw up (from the anesthesia) three times tonight and had an accident in her crate (which hasn't happened since the first week we got her). i've done three loads of laundry from towels and blankets that got dirty, and i feel like a mom with a newborn! thankfully, she will be sleeping soundly through the night - as will i.

p.s. chris said he would like to harness the energy in her wagging tail...ge would be proud. i love my engineer!
