This is Babe. And This is Babe on Benzodiazepines.
Babe’s anxiety is treated with Xanax. Unfortunately that just sedates her. It doesn’t get rid of her fears.

Shoe Shining with a Banjo
As I mentioned the other day, Ivan (the hubs) has been doing a lot of traveling lately to interview for residency positions. So the dogs and I have been spending a considerable amount of quality time together without their dad. When he’s home, Ivan is usually preparing for his next flight, or at the hospital.…
