Life at Golden Pines: Jaycee


Our February started with just a bit little bit of snow, that virtually disappeared when you blinked. It was the bitter chilly that was onerous to overlook. But it surely was simpler to take realizing it wasn’t going to hold round for lengthy. By Sunday afternoon milder and hotter air arrived and is within the forecast for the week forward.

Recently, my days off have been spent on the vets workplace. This previous week was no totally different and this time, it was Jaycee’s flip. 

I’m each unhappy and anxious for Jaycee. We have had her for nearly a 12 months now and there was some curiosity from hopeful adopters, however no matches. And I’ve to admit to being delivered to tears when it is not a match with somebody that I believed could also be good and when different canines who’ve not been out there for adoption that lengthy, discover their new household. I am attempting to stay hopeful. But it surely’s not all the time straightforward.

However Jaycee’s vet go to was an uneventful one as a result of it was only a yearly examination to ensure she’s present on every part for when the day does come, she’ll be prepared for adoption. 

A well being concern I’ve with Jaycee, is that she has alopecia on her sides, and on prime of her head.

I’ve all the time thought she would regrow hair in these areas, however she hasn’t. The vet defined that she has “coloration dilution alopecia” (CDA) which is a genetic-recessive-inherited situation that causes patches of hair thinning or loss. Fascinating, a minimum of to me, it is also this identical diluted gene that offers Jaycee her silvery coloration, and her dappled ear.

I had no concept, and since every part on the web is true, I seemed it up and examine it. You actually can study one thing new day by day. Even on the web. 🙂
