Hi, friends! I’m back from the dog-tur and I have good news to report:

You all thought we were going just for my anxiety but Mom was keeping a secret – I have a lump where my ribs meet near my tummy button. Well, it turns out it’s just a fatty tumor! Yay for fat (this time)!

For my anxiety, the dog-tur put me on happy pills. I have to take them everyday so that it makes my anxiety go away. Mom says the medicine is called Trazadone. We have had that prescription for Molly since 2016 but we never knew that it works best when given every day, not as a situational medicine. Now both of us are taking it regularly – at least throughout the summer for the rainy season.

The dog-tur said it would cause sedation the first few doses and he was right. I feel like a zombie. Mom said I’m flat which I don’t understand because I’m definitely still the same shape I was this morning. I just feel very….tired. I didn’t even do my dinner dance.

Mom said if this helps my car anxiety, she will be so excited because she’ll be able to take me more places. I like places. I just don’t like going to places. I think it would be nice to enjoy a car ride. I see how Macy looks out the window and has fun. Maybe one day I can do that too.

I hope everyone has a great weekend. I’m gonna go snuggle with my Mom now. Hopefully I will wake up tomorrow feeling refreshed.

    Noodle, I’m so glad the lump was just a fatty tumor. Awesome that the dr had an idea to help make the scary things not scary anymore. I hope the happy pills help! ~Cuddles Mrs. Margret

    Good news, Noodle. Vet gave Rocky a few does of trazadone for his thunder anxiety while he recovers from his bloody angry gut. It seemed to work last weekend. We have a few doses left and will likely use them this weekend for more storms. Glad to hear you may find life less frightening soon

    We have been using Trazadone for storm/rain anxiety but only situationally. We’ll have to ask the vet about more often since we live in New Port Richey and get the same storms you do Noodle! Some people say CBD oil can help but because our Primrose has seizures and takes medicine for that we’re scared to try it. She stopped feeling flat pretty quick so we hope you do too Noodle.

    • I don’t really like the idea of being on medicine every single day but I guess I have to be open to new ideas. Mom’s still thinking about CBD oil. She just has to find one she thinks is good. She’s been doing a lot of research. *ear licks*

  12. Have you tried it out yet, Noodle Boodle? Is it working? I haven’t tried out my new Thunder Shirt yet. Maybe you can send me some of your pills if my shirt doesn’t work. xox Xena
    Maybe if it works, you can come visit us, Noodle. I bet there’s lots to see along the way. xox Lucy
