Picture Sarah—my friend, fellow dog lover, notorious for ignoring sniffles until her face feels like it’s been punched by a bag of bricks. One particularly rough Monday, she finally caved and trudged to urgent care. “Classic sinus infection,” said the doc. Handed her an antibiotic (no surprise)…but then also gave her steroids. Two scripts, one little speech…
