Georgia had not gotten worse overnight. But she still is not doing well.

Georgia Not Doing Well

Was across the street for a while this evening spending some time with Georgia, one of the dogs I watch when I house-sit. She was on the front yard grass, weak and having difficulty breathing. Liz and Tammy are not sure she’ll make it through the night.
