The sweetest dog I have ever met is my own. Polly is a very sweet, cuddly lap dog. She isn't even a year old, and she's been through one big adventure.

When we had Polly spayed, she had an allergic reaction to the stuff they used to clean her belly. They gave her Benadryl immediately. When we got her back the next day, she had a nick as if the razer had slipped. Then we figured it was from when the allergic reaction had happened. But a day or two later, the nick had busted and fresh blood had spilled out of it. So we took her to the Emergency Animal Clinic (it was a Sunday, so the vet was closed). They couldn't figure out what happened, but Polly had to get a cone. We wrote get well notes on it! Polly wasn't eating or drinking anything. I got her to eat out of my hand and drink from a snack bowl a little bit. Then, it became a scab. After a month or so, the scab finally became skin. She now is fine, but has a bald spot on her tummy and on her right side (from the infection). I think there might be some hair growing back, though.

So after all that, I thank the Lord Polly is a perfectly well-living dog!
