Arrival Story:
Human mommy helped to deliver us into this world. When I was 5 weeks old, I fell in love with human mommy, and told her so. Apparently, the feeling was mutual.

Bio:
Our little nuclear family is composed of me (of course), Mommy, Daddy (aka Daddy Slave), and Winnie (aka Ratty Sister). Mommy is the love of my life - I found her first before Daddy, so sometimes I feel like I have to share her with Daddy. I often feel torn about Daddy - sharing Mommy's attention is not always easy. But, Daddy is useful in his own way - he provides breakfast and gives me belly rubs when I need them. So I guess I love him, too.

Telly's World


I am sick, and Mommy is sad and worried.

Hello, Pup Pals.

Many things have transpired since my last entry. Needless to say, I have been very busy living life.

First things first. A few weeks ago, I found myself listless and unwilling to eat. My walks - the one thing I look forward to each day besides cuddling with Mommy - did not seem to have the same appeal. Mommy noticed this, and discovered after a brief work-up that I have non-regenerative anemia. After many tests, it looks very likely that I have chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Sadly, there is a relative paucity of survival data in veterinary literature, although if the initial studies are to be believed, this may be a treatable condition with indolent clinical course. Mommy is hoping for that. For now, we are awaiting results from confirmatory tests which have been sent away to UC Davis, and are taking things one day at a time. There are pros and cons to Mommy being a pathologist herself. Pro: she understands what's going on. Con: she understands what's going on.

I suppose as a dog, I live relatively in the present, which Mommy says is a small blessing. I have noticed much in the way my pawrents lavish me with love and attention lately. I shall soak it up.

Please have me in your thoughts, Pup Pals.

Sincerely,
Telly

 

Happy New Year!

Fresh Corn

Today we went to the local farm markets in the area and Daddy bought us fresh corn, beans and locally raised lamb for dinner tonight.

I cannot wait until dinner: Winnie and I get to share a whole chop! My mouth is watering just thinking about it.

Grandma always says, "Low how soy" (translated as: leaking water from mouth literally, or salivating). Fresh lamb chops make me low how soy. A lot. It's embarrassing....
