I'm in the recovery room

Hi all, I am writing this from the recovery room at the Vets. I have been spayed and am just waiting on mum to come collect me. It all went well and my bloods were normal (after my heat stroke the other week) which is good news. My nurse is looking after me very well and she says I been a good and brave little girl. I just got word that mum is coming to take me home in about a half hour *yippeee*

I so proud!

I have been away at a competition with my sis Sadie and mum. My Sadie brought back a truck load of rosettes and a trophy *doing happy dance*. I can't wait until I old enough to start this Agility stuff:D I had to be crated when mum was running Sadie as our "garden area" backed onto the rings where all the doggies were competiting and mum knows I would've worn myself out running up and down the fence line barking! So she hid my crate around the side of the awning in the shade and I stayed in there. I don't mind the noise at all and was quite happy to stay in my crate for a while. It's when I see all those fast moving doggies that I get just too excited BOL

We were sharing our garden area with mum's friend and her two dogs Millie and Cooper.............Cooper bit me! He didn't like his mum fussing me and went for me, his mum caught his collar as he was striking but he locked onto my lip:( the swelling has disappeared now but I certainly gave him a wide berth from then on and he never bothered me again;)

Mum says I was ever so good the whole time we were there and just took everything in my stride. I got to play with loads of doggies in the excercise area several times which was great fun:D

PS Tomorrow is my second attempt at being spayed:(

Will let you know how I get on x

I been attacked! ;(

Firstly, I not hurt, just got a bit squashed and hurt my leg a little.

It all happened so fast as mum was walking back along the track with me and Sadie who were off lead. Two ladies with a (mum would say looked like a mastiff x boxer male) he lay down in the distance as we do and mum had us both right next to her and was about to put my lead back on - she asked if he was friendly and they both said oh god yes. He was wagging his tail at first. Both me and Sadie went over to say hello and he said hello to Sadie then me but he was rather interested in me and I was begging to be played with (on my back submissive) I went to get up and he pounced on me growling and pinned me down:( I was screaming and the ladies were walking on ahead! They turned round to see what was going on to find mum hauling him offa me! She said to the ladies I thought you said he was friendly!!!! They said he IS, what happened there? Mum checked me over and I was limping at first but after a little massage I was ok.

Mum is thinking that maybe my hormones are kicking in - he was an entire male!

:( :(

I had my mum worried last night:(

I got heatstroke:( i couldn't co-ordinate myself at all; couldn't walk without twitching and even when lying still I was twitching and jerking - mum first thought I was having some sort of fit or convulsion but I stayed conscious throughout. She got onto the phone to the emergency Vet who said what she had described sounds like heatstroke and gave mum some advice on what to do for me. She wrapped me in a wet towel and stayed with me coz i wuz scared. I was pretty bad for about 2 hours or more. Mum stayed up with me till gone 2am then, decided I was quiet enough to go to my bed. I was offered water and i was so thirsty but each time I bent my head to take a drink I was jerking too much so mum syringed it into me at varying intervals once my core temperature had come down. I was due at the Vets this morning anyway coz I was being dropped off to be spayed. We kept that appointment where I was checked out thoroughly even though I was bright as a button this morning as though nothing had happened!

My Vet said it could not have been any sort of fitting as it went on for too long and the fact i didn't collapse and confirmed that it would have been heatstroke. My spaying has been postponed in the circumstances as Vet said it would be too risky today. I have been re-booked in for 14th July that is, of course, unless I get my first season which mum says I probably will! I have no signs of it at the moment but another couple of weeks...........who knows!

Mum is so relieved I am going to be alright but at the same time disappointed that the window of opportunity for getting me spayed before Sadie's big agility show has gone:( Oh well, such is life she says...

lots of love

Wish me luck!

How do I?

ok, I haven't done a diary fur a while as I been working hard on my training. I now don't even look at passing traffic (including motorbikes) let alone try to chase them anymore;)

I do, however, still run up to greet people and jump up at them, now some people don't mind me doing this but mum say's I can't be doing this when I get heavier. I been doing not too badly and 4 out of 5 times mum says "Stay Down" when I start running to greet people and I don't jump up at them. Today, I had selective hearing....

We met up with mum's friends two dogs and I just love following Cooper everywhere and get so excited being with all my furiends I switch off completely to mum *ooops*. I jumped up at so many people today that even when she called me to come back in mid run I completely ignored her and carried on to say hello *mum wasn't happy* I ended up on my lead for a while:( that wuz no fun at all. She "worked" with me a short while whilst the others were all running free and I was going nuts at first (mum says I have a temper) *shrugs* but I eventually behaved myself and was rewarded with freedom YAY!!!! The test was when I spotted another hoooman coming in the distance and off I went at full pelt only to be stopped by mum calling me back............I hesitated and looked at mum...........I went back to mum *I didn't want to be put back on the lead* sshhhh. She was ever so pleased and I gots a treat *doing happy dance*

I just can't help myself when I meet people coz I just love them. Do any of you jump up to greet folk I wonder *thinks*

I saw lots of horses today!

WOW they are soooo big BOL. For mine and Sadie's walk today mum decided I was "fit" enough to go with Sadie, Millie and Cooper around the Roman Lakes *doing happy dance* it was very interesting with all the new smells and streams etc and I kept following Cooper coz I decided he was the best to keep up with coz he went off exploring the most BOL. I was off lead all the time and then I saw some really big creatures heading towards me, mum called both me and Sadie back to her and we sat beside her and watched all these horse riders go past - i didn't make a sound and just watched in awe, mum says my face was a picture! I was made a big fuss off for being really good and when she released my collar I didn't run after them:D

I did give mum one fright though you see, Cooper jumped up this dry stone wall which was pretty high onto the wooded platform to go scouting about and before she could stop me..............up I jumped too! *shhhh but i made mincemeat of it* She was then worried how I would get back down and was looking for me so she could get me down but..............both Cooper and me came out further ahead on the flat *phew* said mum!

I very nearly got knocked into the Canal by Millie too - that was close! Mum said I wasn't allowed in the Canal and every 5 minutes *it seemed* all I heard her saying was NO BOL.

I did get to go in some water though as there is a river on that walk and all four of us had a splashing time...............no I still didn't swim but I will..............one day AND when mum least expects me to hahaha.

What a fun day I had *doing happy dance*
