I almost called the vet.

After lunch I gave Luna an early dinner and went for my errands. I got back very tired and Luna again had not eaten her dinner. I started to get worried. A small while ago the vet had come and she had seen Luna´s allergy (infection?). She put her a shot, gave her some pills and told me that with that she thought that she´d be fine. But why wasn´t she eating? She came to see the dish with her meal but was clearly not interested. I was not going to give her any snacks because if she was ill she should not eat food for human beings. Had she destroyed her guts with the bones I often give to her? I never give her chicken bones but I do give her pork and veal bones. This is the second or third day she has behaved like that. I was worried sick. But then, as the sun went down and started to hide behind the mountains. Luna came towards her dish and began to smell it. I was doing something else but I heard the noise or her biting the pellets. I went to look: she was eating. I think that when the sun is up, she is too warm to be hungry. That´s my latest theory. Anyway I´ll check her and give her her dinner later. We´ll see. Luna should learn Spanish. I have asked her what´s the matter but she does not answer. I suppose that if I had a lot of dogs, they would just be animals and I wouldn´t care so much. But Luna is not even my pet nor even my fur baby. She is my friend. I care for her very much. It is very difficult to be a mother, whether it is a human being or a dog. In both situations there is a lot of responsability that goes with it. What are your thoughts about this?
