So.
I came home from the library tonight.
I walked in, set my bag down, gave Elle a hug and a kiss, and asked her how her day was. Ya know, standard evening routine here at Casa de Fabulous. And as I'm petting her and telling her about my dayI look down and realize that her vagina. is bleeding.
....
----
Are you still with me here?
Yes. Her vagina. Is bleeding.
And YES - she is fixed. She got spayed when she was 10 months old. She has never gone into heat. BECAUSE SHE GOT SPAYED.
And her vagina? IT IS BLEEDING.
And I could go into way more detail than that if you want. I could even post a picture. But I think you get the gist.
If not, let me recap for you: Dog. Fixed. Bloody Box.
Because ya know, the bar exam isn't 12 days away. And I don't have anything to study. Or worry about. aldkfjasl;dfjkal;sdfadfjs.
(sidenote: I'm not like SUPER concerned about it. she's acting fine. it's not GUSHING blood. it's just... weird. and makes no sense. and wtf i'm supposed to be studying i don't have time to worry about this shit?)
I'm glad she's acting normal. Did you google this?
ReplyDeletebut how is YOUR vagina doing??!?!?!?
ReplyDeleteOMG... Thats makes me afraid that MY Elle is going to be spayed in a few weeks and I don't want to come home to that!!! Haha... I'm glad your Elle is ok!
ReplyDeleteOh my! What the heck could have caused that? I hope she's okay!
ReplyDeleteshe may have been scratching.
ReplyDeleteit could have been any weird irritation. i would only be concerned if it continues.
ReplyDeletedid you take her to the vet? poor baby!
ReplyDeleteHmmm. That's interesting. I would guess it's scratching or something.
ReplyDeleteOn a side note, there are good things that happen while studying for the bar: Weight loss (congrats on the five pounds!)
Poor thing! I would say she scratched or bit herself a little too roughly, but if it gets any worse I'd call the vet.
ReplyDeleteDid she go to Vegas recently?
ReplyDeleteWhat happens in Vegas stays in Vegas; except herpes--that shit will come back with you :)
maybe call the vet? it doesn't sound too serious, but you never know....
ReplyDeletei'm dying over JPO's comment!!!
JPO's comment = genius.
ReplyDeleteProbably scratched herself. I'm sure it will heal up on its own. If it isn't gushing, I'm thinking definitely a scratch.
I'm sure it's nothing but I totally empathize. One of my dogs developed this weird and HUGE scabby thing under his chin...it seriously appeared out of nowhere. My boyfriend is convinced it's nothing but of course I've googled it and of course the internet has convinced me that a) it's cancer, b) he's dying, or c) he's contracted some awful dog disease. And do I have the time to worry about this now? No, I only have time to worry about how I'm going to memorize 15 pages of property notes (oh yeah and 15 pages of notes for 13 other subjects...no biggie) that I don't even freaking understand. Sigh Life.
ReplyDeleteYep, my Wrigley was in and out of surgeries the week before the bar exam. Turns out he has mega-esophagus, Irritable Bowel Disease and something else. Awesome timing.
ReplyDeletedoggie diapers? Other good things that happen while studying for the bar [happen to my bf, not me *yet* thankgod]: mystery checks from employer-law firm for several months of accrued pay when he supposedly wasn't getting paid [read: in the THOUSANDS. wtf].
ReplyDeleteI hope she's feeling better! I tagged you in an award on my blog!
ReplyDeletexoxo,

I've read that animals can still do that, even if they are fixed. Possibly you didn't notice it in the past?
