Freya with a tummy ache Freya was sick a couple of Saturdays ago, so we called the vet and grabbed the first appointment we could get. It’s always tough when a pet is sick, but Freya is probably the most difficult of all of the dogs we’ve had. She’s the most fearful at the vet’s office and a tough dog to read at the same time. So, making a call on when it’s time to put her through the stress of a doctor visit is like trying to see colors in the dark.
