(Claire with her ornament mini-me, Christmas 2010)Started the day early Wednesday morning at the LA Breakfast Club meeting in Los Feliz. Since Claire is a therapy dog serving the community, I thought I might have a chance at a grant from the Rotary-like organization. They reaffirmed that I'd have a good shot, but unfortunately, they don't fund individuals. So I'd have to find a nonprofit or rescue group under whose guise I can complete the application. I left with a copy of the application to complete at home, then spent a couple hours after I got home extending feelers to rescue groups, to no avail. Since I left a lot of messages I'm hoping one will get back to me soon.
This was Claire's first day on homeopathic meds. I was worried about the Dismuzyme pill because it is so big--too big to be dropped down Claire's throat--and she has food allergies making hiding the pill difficult. But she gulped it right down along with her regular food, no problem. The Traumeel, on the other hand, did not go over well. It's to be sprayed by dropper onto her gums and absorbed through her mucous membranes three times a day, but Claire does Not like anything sprayed at her. I'll keep trying to get her used to it.
I was just leaving the house when I got a phone call from Annie over at Pet Haven. I'd placed a donation jar just the day before, and she was calling to let me know that her first customer of the day had dropped in $10! It was the encouragement I needed to give me confidence to approach the next business.
