So she came over to me and I held her, looking for poop? But she was shaking. Quivering. Then I remembered that yesterday she hit her head on the post that holds up the awning. She hit it really hard. She was running for the ball and looking behind herself when she banged into it. It was quite hard. She was staggering around for a while, so we came inside. She seemed to be OK after that.
