I guess it wont hurt to look into it. I love her dearly and only want to
do whats right for her.(even if I dont like it doesnt always mean it not
good for her) Our house has been extremly quite the past few days as we
had to put one of our dogs down due to an infection she got. My too and
her were close. So the past few days she has been very quite, the whole
house has. I'll let you know how it goes. Thanks for all the advise.
