Life of a T Oy hOG

smoke alarms ~~~ in my life ~~~

So this is a story about moi ~ and smoke alarms....

All my life I could not care about them....loud noises, thunder it didnt bother me at all. I always watched Harrison totally freak out and mom could not control him when loud noises happened.


About 3 weeks ago the smoke alarm went of in the house and I totally freaked.....me being Lenny ran up the stairs so fast mom thought I flew up them. You see I dont run up the stairs...I dont like the stairs...I had fallen down them before so I really refuse to go up and down, I must be carried. Until that day....when I flew.....:(

After the smoke alarm stopped all because someone didnt put the fan above the stove on...I think we have a super sensitve alarm......I was still freaking out and Harrison was already calming down......mom has never seen me this scared before, I have never felt so scared before...

Maybe this is payback for all those times I was making fun of Harrison......now I understand him.

So in order for mom to calm me down she decided to take us out for a walk...as it was a nice cool day which is great for a walk...and it worked. I went around da corner saw the poodle that I am friends with. Everytime she sees me she drops and rolls over!!! mom says it is because she likes me!! BOL!

After that I did feel better and I didnt think about the alarm again that night, I was sleeping so deep that I didnt even hear mom get up the next day!

Did you ever think something like a loud noise could tire you out so much?

Mom said it is with us getting older that we are getting more senstive to things, and that it will be ok.

As long as we have mom everything will be ok :)

uPDAtE ON tuMMy....

Thanks everyone....

After I updated my diary....I was up for about 10mins and mom noticed that I was shaking....I was shaking like mom had just bathed me and left me outside in -20C weather!! Mom had me wrapped in my favourite blankie and too the hair dryer and I feel asleep for a bit and woke up about 20 mins later and I was sick again.....almost throwing up on my moshi pillows....mom quickly took them out of da way...and they are safe....I then walked in a took a pee on da pee pee pad took a drink (mom was feeling better that I finally took a drink) and then she put me back in bed.....

But mom was up most of da night watching me...and making sure I wasnt shaking anymore...and about 8am mom brought me outside and I went pee again...and mom carried me up the stairs and I started eating my dinner from last night.....I can tell you it was YUMMY this morning!!! and now I am in the puter window counting da people and cars that go by with a nice cooler breeze even though it is cloudy it is a perfect day!

Ohh and I got an email saying I was one of the diary picks for today!!!

Thank dog for the POTP and mom who knows what to do!

Off to count cars

Ohhh my......mom was in the bathroom, I wanted in, I started to howl, and , no answer.....mom open da door.....I gotta come in......then the door opens and I threw up twice......mom said I turned green.....I dont feel good......mom washed my face, made me a bed surrounded by my lions on top of a towel just in case I get sick again......I have slept for 3 hrs....not interested in dinner....maybe later...I was so cited fo dinner tonight too!

not sure what mom's sister feed me....but I thought I liked it...but my tummy said NO! Harrison is worried cause I am just sleeping....and I was suppose to get a bath....mom feels bad for me so no bath till I feel better......

Its been a while.......

but with the warmer weather....my friends have LEFT ME!!!

well not really my friends....my scabs! BOL!

Mom is still bathing me every 2 weeks along with big boy....and I am still sensitive in my lower back...but no scabs...so mom thinks we need to move to a warmer place that has no snow or really cold weather!! I put my paw up and said OK!

But as we all know that wont happen but I have my paws crossed that my friends dont come back anytime soon!

Mom has been really busy with work and stuff....a few weekends ago she stubbed her big toe twice within 5 mins....and the result wasnt good.....she lost her toe nail..and it looks GROSS!!!

See mom has this thing...she likes to tease me...and she comes over and smells my feet...and she says I have stinky feet! well wouldnt you if you had to walk on the floor and outside with no shoes! Geezz...

So I did the same thing to mom....I went to smell her feet and I gave her this look and she started to laugh!! She laughed so hard Harrison left the room, and mom and me played!! :)

Last weekend mom took us for a walk with the stroller to the park...so we started to walk..then mom put us in the stroller and pushed us to the park..we walked through the covered trail it was NICE!! we havent been to that park in a long time...cause the walk is too far unless the stoller comes with us....now mom was tired she forgot the way we came back was all uphill! sorry mom but we had fun!!

I think we are going to try and go out this weekend again....but just as long as it is not too hot out for all of us.

Big boy is good....he had some dreams the other night....he was kicking, barking, growling.....this time mom didnt wake him up...she watched him for about 20 mins...straight!! geez some pups need sleep you know?

Ohhhhhhh I gotta tell you this....just this past weekend we all slept in on Sunday....and mom knew one of us wre stuck to her back...as she felt feet and kicking...well mom carefully got up to see who was there...nope is wasnt me! It was HARRISON! She just about peed herself laughing at him....it was on his back sitting up looking like a big fat old man teddy bear...sound asleep!!! not sure how he ended up that way...but boy he must have been tired....mom couldnt get the camera quick enough in between her laughing...that would have been a good picture!

Almost forgot....Tuesday sent Harrison a gift certificate so we finally ordered some pressies....hopeing we get them next week or the week after?

Also please remember our good friend Tiffany, her anniversary is coming up oh July 28th.

oUChEE Update

So mom called my dogtor and he said that maybe the 2nd shampoo that he gave is now irritating my skin...no kidding!! So mom checked my back end out and it is still a little pinker than usual but she needs to make sure it doesnt turn into a scab and get infected. Dogtor said it bascially burnt my skin in the sore spots....but he said mom did what she should have with the cold cloth and that will probably not make a scab.

Now I am down to 1 shampoo...and mom says she is going to try and bath me every 3 days but with her work lately she hasnt had the time...and we are just happy to see her come home on time and not LATE!

So mom if you are listening I am ok with once a week bath ok?

so since this was a long weekend mom took us to the park where we need our stroller cause we get tired BUT we still wanna walk....

So we met Gizmo's mom again, she is great!! She gives us hugs & lots of kisses and we have fun with her while we are at the park.

But after mom said that I needed my weekly bath....and so I was able to rest after the walk...and then it started...

Mom got the medicated shampoo out and scrubbed my lower back & side as that is the only place that I am still having scabs on.....so mom got the timer put it on for 10 mins...to soak in, while that was going she was washing my face and my paws....and she scrubbed my back a little more...and thank dog that timer went off....mom rinsed me off put on a oatmeal rinse and then rinsed me off again......

then she put me on top of the washer to dry me off a little and noticed that my back end was bright red......OUCH!!!!!! it was sore and I really didnt want anyone to touch it....so mom cleaned me up and got me almost dry but she kept a cool cloth on my lower back and the redness isnt as bad but it is sensitive ...mom is going to call the dogtor tomorrow and see if there is anything she can put on it to make it better or unless mom has to go back to every 3 days a BATH for moi...

So last night I got confused and mom was worried about me......

It really started as Harrison's fault cause he had a bad tummy ache, mom went to look after him about 2:30am.....and then I kinda half woke up...and I went to the bathroom to the pee pee pad...peed no problem....but then mom heard me barking like I was stuck somewhere......

Mom had the bathroom window and her bed room window so when I was barking it sounded like I was right beside her...but I wasnt....she came to look for me and found me still in the bathroom barking at the wall and the counter.....mom touched my back....I almost hit the ceiling she scared me soo bad....I know she didnt mean too....but she thinks I got confused and I thought the door was closed....

After that mom brought me back to bed and I never left mom's side till she got back up at 5am....then she left but I stayed in bed.

She did tell me tonight that I am not allowed to wander anymore, cause she worries about me.....you know big boy never even came to find me!! It was only MOM!

Anyway mom said we are going to bed early tonight.......and that I need to get another bath again this weekend as my dear friends mr & mr SCAB are still with me....dogtor says to keep doing the bathing...as he doesnt want me on any meds, as it upset my tummy last time and the bathing is working just taking a little longer...and mom is ok with it....cause she says I am a stinker :-P

It really is all about MOI~

So today was my first eye dogtor appt since Dec 2008!!!!!!!!! Crazy! I use to see this guy every month.....but I don't know what this guy up in Guelph did to me......mom always says "knock on wood" so I am knocking baby! but everything has been G O O D !!!! I passed with flying colors with my appt....pressures all good, tears 1 eye good 1 eye ok...I can live with that :-) I got 2 liver treats and lots of kisses from my eye dogtor and he says that he hopes he doesnt see me for 6 months!!! YIPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I will still knock on wood...nothing happens like it did.

BUT

I was walking out of my appt....and what did I see.....but a beautiful girl looking at moi!!!!!!! She had short hair, white and blond just like me.....and she was going to see my dogtor!!

Her name is I Z Z Y, she has big beautiful brown eyes....she is 7 years old doesnt look a day over 3 years! Mom gave her my liver treats and I got a K I S S from her! I was so shy that I went behind mom's legs!!!! OMD how embarassing...I never do this? Man this girl's got power over me....I did say bye to her...maybe one day we will meet again....

Until that time I will have sweet dreams of I Z Z Y :-)

Happy Easter Dogster Pals!!

So I am back from the dogtor...he said the scabs are my fault this time cause I was scratching my side....and that mom needs to bath me with 2 different shampoos....the first one is to do all over except on the scabby parts....and the other one is just on the scabby parts....

He told mom that to bath the scabby parts every 3 days...and the rest of me every 2 weeks....gotta question for YA

How do you bath a tzu with long hair in parts without getting him all wet? Huh? Can you tell me please? BOL

Anyway if it doesnt clear up in 2 weeks...I gotta get more pills...Y U C K!

Scabby boy going to HIDE

Mom said that the scabs are looking "angry" , I didnt know they had feelings? But mom says that I cannot scratch them cause it would really make them upset at me......hmmmmm maybe I can rub them?

Ohh man if I gotta go on meds again...I hope they are different pills cause these ones made my tummy upset....:(..

Enny AKA Scabby Boy

Alone

Here I sit alone at home with mom on Friday AM. We just got back from the vet and Harrison had to stay. The dogtor is concerned with what mom thought was 1 lump but is now 2 together. It has come up really fast.


Dogtor said it could be the lymph node or the salvia gland not sure. They are taking samples from Harrison as we speak...and they are going to send them off for tests to see what is happening.

I kept looking at mom wondering why she left big boy at the dogtor....you know he isnt happy mom. He had the saddest face you could have seen.

One good thing is that the scale was broken at the vets so Harrison won that one.

We are suppose to pick him up just after lunch but we wont know any test results for about 3-5 days......these are going to be the longest days ever.

Please day a prayer for my brother.

Close CALL!

So I am now being called scabby BOY! Not happy here! hello my name is LENNY not scabby boy. So mom has been bathing me every 3 days for the past 4 weeks...and all I had in the beginning was a cluster of scabs on my lower back. So dogtor gave mom shampoo and he said it should clear up.....well guess WHAT!

Guess who went to the dogtor today! Yup MUAH!

Mom called dogtor the other day as she was concerned if the scabs come near my face.......because of the eye issues....didnt know what was going to happen......so he said that Iwas lucky cause the cluster broke up BUTit has spread up my back, along my sides, around my bum! Oops I meant to say the lucky part is that since the cluster broke up I dont need to get SHAVED!!! yup thats right dogtor said that!! I thought mom was gonna faint! She said to the dogtor do you know what he would look like? She said I would be the saddest looking old man tzu with scabs over his body and I would have been NAKED! I would FREEZE!

People do you know how much snow we have? TOO MUCH! The temp is -18C thats COLD! Pleeezzz I would live with my scabs till I could move to somewhere HOT.

So now I am on pills for the next 2 weeks 3 times a day! That means lots of treats!

At least 2 good things is coming out this....I dont need to get shaved and I get TREATS

Enny

mOm JUst gIvE UP !!

So I got my all clear from the eye dogtor, but still on meds and the usual stuff....then it happened!

Mom had brought me to our regualr vet to get my face shaved and a mani & pedicure, as I wont let mom do it at this time. Anyway mom told the dogtor that I had these scabs on my lower back and she wasnt sure what they were from....and that I SMELLED! At first mom thought it was from all the meds I was gettting for my eyes...but she thought if that was the case I would have been stinkin for years! So dogtor took a look at pulled one scab off, I yelped, and he made a bald spot on ME! and it started to bleed a little...he says I that my oily glands are overreacting and causing this....like just what I need to hear? I just cant stay away from any DOGTORS!!!!!

So then mom was off for a week for work and I was all alone...no mom = no BATH! :-)

Then mom comes back..calls the dogtor and asks if she should be bathing me more with the medicated shampoo...cause the scabs are getting worse now.....and he said min of 3 times a week!

So mom started this....I have had 3 baths in less than 2 weeks!!! Harrison NONE! NOT FAIR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can tell you I am the cleanest tzu on da street! But the sad part is that big boy WANTS a bath!! He feels like he is being left out....now tell me really what tzu likes to have baths! no wait...what DOG would like to have baths but my own blood brother!! GEEZ!!

Anyway mom said his turn is coming on Saturday when she is going to bath ME AGAIN!

Mom said we have to do this for at least 4 wks and if it doesnt clear up I need to take medication..so cross your paws this works...cause I really hate taking pills!!!!

Out & over for squeeky clean

Enny

YIPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So today mom took off work went to get what she calls gray hair covered....and came home put me and Harrison in da car, went to McDonalds and got a BURGER...SUPER DUPER YUMMY!!!!

Anyway I thought we were going home....and the drive was really long.....we just kept going...and going....then we stopped and I was at my new eye dogtor......nope I didnt want to go into...I wasnt in da mood....but mom carried me cause it was raining and snowing all day.

So we saw happy pups...some sad people leaving....and I always want to try and make them feel better...they smiled and said thanks sweetie....the one lady asked mom if she could give me a hug....mom said sure...I think it made the lady feel better then she just said goodbye and left, but I did get a kiss :-)

After a bit I was called in...and it wasnt the same girls as before....these new girls were in there 4th year as well...but didnt seem sure with the eye stuff.....and how to hold me...but mom was watching...and then we went to the other office were the real dogtor was....he looked at mom with a pair of sisscors again!! He threatened mom cause he wants to take my top knot off!! mom said NO! but they all started to laugh.

Anyway after 6 students 1 resident and my eye dogtor I was getting TIRED! mom could see it in my face.....I wasnt too happy...but just as I was starting to get uneasy....dogtor said I was done...and we were HAPPYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!


Yup thats right..dont get me wrong I will always have my eye issues...but we think it is back under control again...my tear production is back up to being good, not great...but that is still good for me :) my eye ulcers and GONE BABY!!! YIPEEEEEEEEEEE

Ohh and the white spot that he called sandpaper in my eye is starting to go away also!!! AND I wont need the steroids that he thought I might have needed 2 weeks ago!! So mom is super happy...and I am super pooped out from today!!

But while I was in with the dogtor Harrison was in the waiting room with mom's dad...and he was talking to another owner a young guy that was talking about his pup named Yogi. Yogi has been to see many dogtors and he is only 2 years old...and he pulled out is blackberry he had 192 pictures of his baby!! You gotta love this doggy dad...and he drove from Toronto to Guelph to try and get his baby some help...he has been sick, throwing up every day and no one has a reason as to why.....he said he has spent over $10,000 in going to many different dogtors and he was here today to get an MRI and some other tests for Yogi. We never did get to meet him, but we can tell you he was one of the bestest dads that you could ever ask for:-)

Anyway mom also got a call from her work looks like she is going to Saint John for 4 days next week!!!! that totally sucks for mom....she is gonna miss us!!!! BOL! no really she will miss us...but she said that she will try and get onto dogster when she is at the hotel....and maybe she might meet up with some of her family that is down there! Who knows!

I gotta go and laydown, you know I really do need my beauty sleep:)

Out & Over a HAPPY

Enny :)

Almost that time again......

I am going back to the new eye dogtor on Tuesday next week...and paws crossed all uclers are gone and my dry eye is alot better so we can proceed to the next step of getting rid of the white spot on my eye!! Now mom says she thinks my eyes do look better BUT she says I stink :P , she says I smell like a medicine cabinet...so she said I am getting a bath this weekend before I go back...you know I only had a bath 2 weeks ago...hmmmm mom only said I get one at least one a month...now this!

Anyway mom took that day off work...she said in the AM she is getting her hair done...and that afternoon we head up, I think big boy is coming again...I really have to tell you all , I like it when he comes...he is my brother and he supports me when I need it...and I beat him up with I need to :P fair is fair right !! BOL!

Anyway please keep your paws crossed that all tests go ok...and we go to the next step.....promise to update once we get back.

New eYe dOGtoR

So as most of you know Monday night Harrison & I went to see Santa. It was fun, I was a little stressed as there was a big dog licking his chops looking at me and Harrison was too busy being his "supermodel" self and not protecting me!

Anyway Santa and I had a really good chat and he said that if I am a good boy I have nothing to worry about. No problem Santa, I promise.

So my promise started that night.

The next morning mom gets up, I am thinking she is going off to work....but she is in jeans....and asks Harrison if he wants to go out for a pee......freak of course said yes...I turned my head away hoping that no one would pay attention to me...then it happened....mom picked me up and brought me down stairs...HELLO!!!!!!!!!!! It is still dark out!!!!!!!!!!

Next thing she puts my new sweater on me, my leash.....and I am thinkin why oh why did I promise Santa that I would be good.....

Anyway we both end up in the backseat of the car, totally dark out with snow coming down.....not sure what is happening....

As we are driving it starts to get brighter and after about 1 hr we stop and mom says pee pee time....we get out and the smells are WONDERFUL! so many new smells I dont know which way to go......then we got back into the car and waited , and watched all these people with dogs ...mom started telling me that this is my new eye dogtor place...it is a school of vet students.

So we finally go in...it is quiet...I check myself in and we wait....a few big dogs come in...no problem mom's got me :P Eventually I get called in , and since this is a teaching place, mom has to stay in the background, and this pretty girl was holding me....she was really nice , and I kinda fell asleep in her arms....while another girl checked me over...wasnt too bad...I was a good boy and I did get lots of kisses from the girls :)

After the 1st checkup we got to see my new eye dogtor, very nice , talked fast but mom said she got what he said....he said that I didnt need this surgery another dogtor told mom..where they prick your eyes to make them worse and then it heals what is wrong with them....GOOD NEWS! He did say that I have now severe dry eye in one if my eyes and we need to bring the tear production up alot more and that I still have little baby uclers in both eyes....so...we need to get the tears up and uclers gone....then I go back in 2 weeks.......now the cyst that is on my eye right now he told mom is like sand paper in my eye...and this will go away BUT I need to get the other issues cleared as to get rid of the cyst I need to get a steriod drop....so mom is working really hard and putting extra drops in. I am still being good I try really hard not to rub, sometimes mom understands and she lets me rub on her hand which is softer than the carpet.

So in total we were there for about 4 hours and Harrison waited for me in the waiting room with mom's dad...as while I was getting looked over I did have about 4 students with me at all times. But I know Harrison made a lot of tzy friends while waiting for me...he told me all about it...and a great dane was walking in when we were getting out and he was scared of all the little tzu's in the waiting room!! His mom has to push him in the dogtors office! BOL!

So I would say overall..ok news for now!

Da bIG nIGht!!

Santa PAWS!!!!!!!!!!! Tonight at 7pm...cant wait to tell Santa what I want for Christmas, it is even snowing out right now!!!!

Then up early tomorrow for my new eye dogtor appt...about 1.5 hrs drive hopefully da snow stops for mom while driving hwy401...she doesnt like that hwy but will drive it for me!

So not sure if we will be back on till we get back from the eye dogtor tomorrow. Mom is bringing the stroller and my brother for support cause she knows I will be scared.....the drive is long for me...but mom said she will bring my blankie and one of my baby lion toys.

I promise to also tell Santa that all pups on STAFU have been really really good.

Hmmm wonder if we will make it on TV again this year? Mom bathed us both yetersday as she said Santa wont bring pressies to smelly tzu's....I think she was joking but the bath did feel good.

Anyway gotta get my dinner....get my hair ready for Santa.....and let some kisses out da other end.....before Santa!

i"M bACk!!!!!!

Thank Dog for McDonalds!!!! The burger was super duper YUMMY, and a few little fries doesnt hurt......my tummy was talkin....ohh and I was still blowing kisses from the other end...poor mom...I gassed her alot tonight...and she still gave me kisses :)

Anywho....dogtor told mom not too worry but this is of course another new issue / problem for muah...this is a cyst. He said it was another thing just going on and for mom to keep doing what she is doing....and if anything else looks werid to call if before my University of Guelph appointment.

Dogtor said that they might want to do something at the University if it still looks like this...BUT he may heal on its own.....dogtor said he doesnt know what to expect when he sees me....

Ohh cause I am going to another specialist he said he has to write a letter to the next person to tell them what has been going on with me...and what meds I take etc.....dogtor started to laugh cause he said it will be a book! Mom said it could be a best seller :) I have been seeing the same eye dogtor for 8 years!! Thats all LONG time!! AndI still have same issues but more over this last year......

The vet tech was scared to hurt me tonight...you know those dry eye test..sticking a piece of paper in your eye...wouldnt that bother you? But I was good....but my eyes are at there worst right now for dry eye..but no new meds are needed....


Ohh mom had to laugh as we were waiting a lady came up to us and thought I was a persian cat!!! Seriously...do I look like a cat? I have nothing aganist cats...but I am all TZU!

Going to bed now.....gotta sleep..belly full...nighty night

Out & over

Enny, still blowing kisses tonight :P

wHY mE?

So....mom got a call last week from the U of Guelph saying that they could take me in 2 days!! GREAT! mom says yes!...but they ended up calling her back saying that someone else had already taken the appt....now mom needs to breath....sahe was upset but said to call her cell if anything opens up....so far nothing :-( Mom had to call my eye dogtor to get more pain meds for me and asked that he call mom back as she has questions for him about what is going on....so two days later he calls...geez! what is a tzu to do to get better call back! Anyway mom was describing my eyes..saying that she thinks the blood vessels have grown in towards the middle of my eye and so it looks like I have red circles with a little cloudiness starting, and that the one eye cleared up in a few days with lots of meds and warms compresses on my eyes...but this one eye that I had the blisters in....isnt getting better...and mom noticed that there is now alot more cloudiness with the red in the middle but in the red area is another white spot about the size of a pen tip...that is raised....and mom looks at me with this look....(I think she thinks she is the eye dogtor :P) sooooo my eye dogtor says to bring me in....so off I go on Thursday night.....and he can really see what is going on..hopefully nothing too serious....as mom told him...I am acting normal, eating, stealing Harrison's treats....chasing him around the lilac bush...so all that is good there is just that BUT mom says....so cross your paws dogtor says everything is OK!

Ohhh one funny thing, last night mom pulls in da driveway...of course we are watching from da window and normally she talks to us from the window...as we wait nothing....we see da chair shaking...wondering what mom is doing....and all of a sudden the passenger door opens and her purse flies out da door...then comes mom falling out!!! She slams the passenger door shut ...comes in mumbling that her drivers door is stuck!! BOL! on mom!!! The funny thing is watching mom crawl over the centre on to the other seat and out! Sorry mom but it is funny....hopefully she will get the door fixed tomorrow :P

Ohh and big boy......ate too many baby cookies and now his tummy is upset...mom tried to give him his tummy pills from da dogtor and he bit moms finger.....and then he stopped, realized what he did, he gave mom the sadest face possible...things are all good now...they made a truce.

Ohh da aventures of the Canadian Boys!!!

That would be way cool....hmmm gotta talk to big boy and see what he thinks....

All about ME!

So tomorrow will be 1 week since the last eye dogtor appt....and we still have not heard when the next one will be....hopefully soon....I slept most of the weekend with mom hiding my face....but I think something is concerning mom...but she is not telling me much...

Right now I have the blood vessels growing into my eye...and the dogtor called it a double edge sword for me because of my eye issues...he could do one thing...but it may be worse outcome for another problem that I have......but mom noticed the other day as she was looking into my eyes that she can see spots....in my eyes that dont belong...and it is not cloudy but different colors....and she knows this is what is stopping me from being "totally" Lenny at this time and why I wander at night and I cant jump at certain times...but mom is ok with all that...she wants to know what is happening...and right now our normal eye dogtor can't tell us....so hopefully we get a call soon...so we can take a day trip to go up to the U of Guelph and paws crossed they can tell us something.

Good news today I ran up to mom with eyes open!!! So I will tell ya I do have some good days with my eyes...but I think lately it has been more bad days...and that is what mom is concerned about. Anyway you look at it I know mom will do all she can no matter what it will cost.

Thats why I love my family :-) Thats why I love dogster :-)

Eye dogTor again :-(

Geez...didnt I get enough stress last Monday! What does mom do today comes home puts our collars on, puts us both in da car and off we go....thinking we are going to da park cause it is a nice and windy day.....but NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

She brings me back to the eye dogtor and brought Harrison for support for me :). Anyway while we were waiting in the waiting room, (our eye dogtor is also an emergency clinic) we saw someones mom & dad walking out crying...we felt so bad for them...both Harrison & I went up cause we dont like to see anyone cry...and the lasy squeezed me and said thank you...she made mom cry...actually I think the whole office was crying...mom didnt ask but she knew her best friend was put to sleep...but I think I made her feel better and even the daddy said Thanks and they left....may there furbaby rest in peace.

So since Harrison was my body guard today...I was all brave and talking alot!!! I was wagging my tail and struting my STUFF...look out girls! Lenny is in da HOUSE!!!!!!!!

So that all was snuffed out pretty quick..dogtor called me in and da tail went down pretty quick! So they did my usual tear test, ulcers, oressures....I have once again an ucler in each eye...and the dogtor wanted to do this test where he pricks my eye hundreds of times to make the ucler heal quicker...but the dogtor wasnt sure himself if it was going to work, so mom said no and that she would like to go to the University of Guelph to see what they would say...mom didnt want to put me through alot and if the dogtor isnt sure why suggest it?

Anyway I did get another 2 eye meds....so lets see what happens....and mom said not to worry that she and Harrison will look after me.

Ohhh I forgot to tell ya! I da mornin some times my eyes are crusted shut and mom needs to wash my face to get my eyes to open..anyway..I thought I was moving around big boy this morning and I fell off da bed!!! Mom freaked, harrison was still sleeping!!!! But all is ok, I am a tuff nut! dat's what mom calls me!

Out & Over for now.....

Enny the tuffest nut in da bunch :-P

Mom's been thinkin......

So since our last trip to the eye dogtor he told mom that she should be putting in tacrolimis into my eye to reduce the inflammation....so mom does what dogtor says and she finds that I am hidin my face more and I wont open my eyes at all....so the other day mom stopped giving it to me and kept up with the rest.....now my eyes are open more I am beating up Harrison a little more...but mom has found that I am shaking my head and digging my face into da pillows...now that usually tells mom that I got fur stuck in the corner of my mouth but nope nothing there...she cks my ears...all clear and smell good! So she turns on the light and my eyes looked like they are almost dried out..so she take a wet face cloth and wets my whole face, carefully dries of the excess and puts more of the celluvisc and other drops into my eyes and I feel better...but mom has noticed that she is doing this more than usual...so for now...mom said she will keep on doing what she is doing as I go back on tuesday after turkey day!!! Since it will only be mom, her mom & her sister and US! I think mom said that I could play with the turkey!! BOL!

Will keep you posted hopefully dogtor thought about me this weekend and has a solution for me.

Out & Over
Enny...waiting to play with da turkey!! Hmmm wonder where mom is keeping him?

Eye dogtor my best friend :-P

Ohhh my.....today was another check up on my blisters in my eye......and I wasnt happy cause mom woke me up too early...put me in a cold car.....lets just say I was cranky today!!

So good news is that my blisters are gone...but eye dogtor said that I am getting the blood vessels growing into my eye and it is causing more problems and he doesnt want to put me back on a steriod drop that I have been using for years....as he says as soon as I go back on that...I have been getting uclers...so he told mom to start giving me tacrolimis again...and that has an anti-inflammatory which is what I need....but I still need to stay on the blister meds as he says that is helping me right now....but what I think really threw mom today...is that he asked mom to bring me to another eye dogtor!!!! He wants to make sure that is he seeing that all can be seen in my eyes.....and we only have 2 choices...the first choice is the original guy and I didnt like him cause he wanted me to go into surgery the first day he saw me...and at that time....mom say NO! so mom's only choice is that I go to the university of Guelph...a teaching hospital....very well known...but he said that the only draw back there is that since it is a teaching hospital that I would get alot of students seeing me....which isnt too bad as long as I get belly rubs :)...so my eye dogtor said he will make up his mind when he sees me again next Tuesday...he said that I am a very complex shih tzu......geez...mom knew I was special the day she brought me home!! So....mom said if I need to go to Guelph it is about 45 mins drive all highway...but she said that Harrison would come and we would make a day of having fun!!

Anyway mom gave me some medicam cause the dogtor really picked me apart today and my eyes were really sore when we left....

Ruff couple of days :(

I am here to tell mom sorry for the ruff week , not all our fault, she said alot of stuff going on at work which kept her late most of this week, she is tired and stressed out...and plus with Harrison having poopy problems...and me with my eye issues.....

Anyway mom has been on full alert cause I have been keeping my eyes closed again and my eyes dont look the greatest...between the ointment for my blisters which leave the one eye cloudy and gooky all over, in between my eyes are now all red and inflamed because my eyes are getting so many different drops...and mom thinks the ulcer has come back in my other eye.....mom says when it rains it usually pours on this side of da road...and I think she is right.

One good thing is mom is not working tomorrow but of course she has brought work home.....maybe I can shred the paperwork she brought cause she did leave it on the floor....hmmmm gotta talk to my brother about that later....

If it is a cooler day out she said we can go for another walk tomorrow but she does want to bath us and get us clean....she said with poopy pants everything is smelling....geeez...I wonder if she is talking about me? Now I know big boy does have a poopy scent to him...but he has gotten his butt washed a few times this week....who knows...I just know that I will feel better after a bath, even though I complain about it....:)

I do go back to my eye dogtor in 2 weeks and hopefully I will get better news......ohh mom said she finally found this book called A resource book and training guide for the owners of blind and low-vision dogs...so mom should get that in a few days and she said that we are going to do some reading together....hope it is a good story...

anyway mom needs to wash my face and do the eye drop thing...and take a look at big boy...he is right now in the process of pulling his top knot ...hahah big boy is going to get in trouble!!

Out & Over

Da eYe dOGtoR IS mY bEsT fRIeNd :P

well not really....but I have been seeing so much of him lately!

If you read my brothers diary, you will read most of my "issues", anyway while I was waiting at mom's work tonight, mom got a phone call and it was Yoshi's mom!!!!!!! Way COOL! So they were chatting talking about what perfect tzu's they have !! BOL!

Anyway mom just ordered some really pretty bows from Yoshi's mom, cant wait to get them :)

When mom was chatting she was also giving me little pieces of a plain Wendy's burger cause the last time we had an eye dogtor appt we got home really late...and I was starving...so she thought some burger would help and it DID! I think all the pups waiting to see dogtors wanted some...I swear they could smell burger !!BOL!

So dogtor comes in does his usual, check pressure, tear test, and stains my eyes, looks into my eyes with about 5 different tools and I can tell you it is BRIGHT light...and I am not happy about this tonight....I really just wanted my burger and to visit mom at work....

Anyway he still saw 3 blisters in the 1 eye..which is good cause he said they are smaller than about 7 or so days ago....and the ucler is gone....and he said that I am now getting cataracts....and this just seem to start the past few months...cause all other times there was no sign...he said not to worry about the cataracts right now cause it isnt really that bad...he compared it to a person saying that my eyes are a little blurry, like when you are tired..but he will watch it and check everytime for me...you know I gotta say I really do like my eye dogtor, he says that I am one of his "special" patients...hmmm now I think about it...I wonder what he means by special?? BOL!

So we are home and I go back in about 3 weeks for another recheck...hopefully blisters will be gone and my wandering at night will stop!

Da Eye Dogtor :P

So after my last entry last night......all I can say is I am TIRED!

We left mom's work got to the eye dogtor right on time, mom didnt realsize how much traffic was out at this time cause she is normally home and the eye dogtor is really 5 mins away from her work.

Anyway we get there and where my eye dogtor is there is also an emergency part...that I also know :P, but this placed was packed last night! I met soo many pups and really big pups.

The one funny one was a 12 year old lab he was as big as a horse and he was barking at all the other pups but his bark was like thunder it rattled the windows and all the other pups took cover. Well I am sitting it my own chair with mom beside me and he decides to come over and check me out to see if he can scare me.....so he comes over barks in MY FACE! I barked back and the lab put his head down and walked away! All da other pups thought I was da king! He sat down till he got called in and never said another word! Geez Harrison would have been proud of me :)

So anyway after I was da king all the pups came and talked to me, it was nice cause there was all kinds! little toy yorkie's, eskimo all really nice pups all had a story some sad some happy.

So da dogtor was late and mom wasnt happy...but once we got in he said my ucler is healing but it was a different kind of ucler mom cant remember the name but this ucler caused me to have a blister on my eye and that is why my eye is still swollen and red.

So I now have another 2 medications and if mom notices anything else not normal I will need to call my regular vet as my eye dogtor is going away next week.

By the time mom got da bill, my meds it was 7pm!!!!! People 7pm...I am normally belly up in la la land by this time with my belly fully....People Lenny has not eaten all day! Lenny is getting grumpy!

Mom gets us home as fast as she can, so I bolt passed Harrison even though he wants to talk...later brother I am hungry...I go to the kitchen and see that big boy has eaten and he has left over! So I finish his dinner, Harrison is looking at mom like MOM he is eating my dinner again!!!!!!!!! Mom makes me dinner and I eat it, took a drink, and had hiccups cause I was eating so fast which is not like me....after da hiccups I finish my dinner, and mom gives me a treat. Washes my face and put all my drops in a we go and lay down.

It is now 4am and guess what....THUNDER & LIGHTING! OMD cant I just have peace & quiet! Mom puts on the tv and light and she gets ready for work and Harrison & I end up going back to sleep.

So now I am back in bed sleeping, mom thinks thunder & lighting has stopped for now, so I will relax and mom sorry that you have to work today :-P

We are leaving in about 10 mins for the dogtor...cross your paws dogtor says everything is ok....

Lastest Ouchee Update

Today started off with mom trying to open my eye...cause all da hair and medication made my eye stick together again.

And she wasnt happy once she got it open....still really red, really puffy and my eye is getting really cloudy again...

Mom called my dogtor again this AM, and he was trying to get in touch my my eye dogtor but he didnt even get a call back....the problem is my eye dogtor lost another dogtor that was helping him out in his practice and now it is only him.

My dogtor is telling mom that it is a really bad ucler and the meds that she already has should be working...but mom isnt satisfied yet....normally my uclers heal up in a few days and I look better and feel better...but all weekend I was in bed.

Now today I did greet mom at da door with about 1/4 of my eye open which is really good compared to the weekend......

So mom is just going to keep doing what she is doing and hopefully she will hear back from the dogtor and maybe I will have to go and see my eye dogtor...the good thing is that they are only 10 mins away from my house and moms work.

Promise to update when we know more.

Enny

no change in my ouchee

So I fell asleep last night in mom's arms (it was nice and cosy) and lets just say me and mom never moved last night...I think she tired herself out making banana bread and stuff yesterday.

Anyway 8am comes today, Harrison decides to wake mom up but not me.....Harrison is always coming up to me to see what is wrong, he knows I am not feeling like beating him up or chase after him. So mom gets up and my eye last night from all the medications actually dried shut, so mom needed to take a warm cloth and slowly open it this morning and it didnt look any better which is not good. Usually my eye meds work pretty quickly but my eye it still puffy and really red....

So after mom cleaned my eye, she took us out for a pee and we came back to bed with some banana bread....it was YUMMY and Harrison & I curled up on da bed and went back to sleep while mom watched tv in bed with us.

Till the noon hour came and it was time for more meds....and a drink and I ate some dinner left over from last night, mom was glad to see but my enery level was back down to nothing about 30mins later, so right now I am back in bed sleepin with my brother.

Mom is going to have to call the dogtor back again Monday AM, and this time he is going to have to get something that is gonna work for me......maybe my eye dogtor can finally let me in to see him??? I know he is busy but I am hurting....we will update yah if anything changes....or if I start to feel better:)

Out & Over

Enny being da real poopy pants this weekend :-(

More Ouchee

So the dogtor called at 8am this morning and told mom not to touch my eye and bring me back right away....

The dogtor said that mom was right something else was going on....my eye was almost all white mom said it looked like a cataract eye sp? very cloudy...so over night this film covered my eye...so the dogtor put some numbing stuff and took a qtip and he said it was an extra layer that had formed over my ulcer!!!!! yes I did have an ucler and it is a bad one :( so I cried and cried cause it hurt even with the numbing stuff how would you feel with this big white qtip coming at your eye?

So he cleaned it and mom did agree that it did look better but I need eye meds every 2 hours, warm cloth on and off throughout da day, and hopefully a dark room that is quiet.

So far not too bad, I did help mom make some banana bread and then we had bbq chicken, and then mom brought me up to bed with all da blinds shut tight no light she even covered up da bird so the bird would stay quiet too:)

Harrison who is suppose to be my nurse is a little upset at mom cause she is paying so much attention to me....sorry big boy but it hurts!!

I know I have had then before but this one mom thinks is one of the biggest she has ever seen on my eye....so mom will be watching me like a hawk...until I get better.....

cross your paws it clears up soon.....and then I will be back in gear to beat up the big boy!

Oucheee

So I went to my normal dogtor cause mom knows that I have another eye ucler, but the dogtor checks it and he said that is has just started to heal......so he gives me a different medication so I would be comfortable as it was still bugging me and I am keeping my one eye shut tight.....

So mom puts in da drops and boom OUCHEEE, one reaction is that it could irriate (sp?) the eye and yup it did :(, so mom just got home and she said that my eye is almost all white except for a little red part which is better than last night but it is soo sensitive all around it.....mom is thinking it maybe the pressure? or something else is going on with my eye. So she called my dogtor but he has gone for da day but back in tomorrow so she left him a message to call her tomorrow.

Mom is going to get a warm cloth and keep in on my eye on and off for tonight and put more lubricating drops with no meds it in for tonight...mom knows when I get like this I dont sleep unless mom is cuddling me....and da big boy is in his nurses uniform!!!

Gee life of a toy hog is RUFF!

So Canada Day just passed and mom had the day off....well what did have to go and do! Bath us! She said we were beyond that stinky point :P .

One good thing is that we did go for a walk before the bath, but I ended up poking my eye into a bush :( and I irritated it to the point of another eye ulcer.

I have been pretty good with no getting them. So today mom took me to the vet (my eye dogtor had no appointments so we went to my regula guy) and he said my eye looks good but it is still really senstive and I am still holding it closed, so he gave mom a different drop for the next week or so.

So I will be making sure all the attention is on ME!

Sorry big boy my turn :)

I am really not a scaried cat :P

ok...mom says I need to vent more so here it goes....

As most of you know we have been having humid weather, and humid weather means bad storms.....so the storms started again Friday night which meant none of us really slept. I dont sleep cause I dont like the lighting...Harrison doesnt sleep cause of the thunder...and mom doesnt sleep cause of the 2 of us :P. The next day was our birthday and mom left us sleeping, she went out to get a few things and was complaining cause she didnt get much sleep and had a bad headache. But she still came home with some pressys for us and we had some cake.

The one thing mom didn do this year was take any pictures....which is ok cause that camera is always in our faces.


Now the one thing that happened kinda upset mom on Sunday night...the storms came back off and on all day Sunday but the night a bad one. Harrison started along with mom's car alarm...then mom must have drifted off and Harrison eventually put himself to sleep. But mom heard crying and knocking on the wall.....she couldnt find me :-(....I was beside her on the floor in between the bed and the night stand walking into the wall crying and I couldnt get out....I was and I will admit it super scared. Mom picked me up and turned the light and tv on at 3am and we both stayed up (well I actually fell back asleep) till mom had to go to work which was for 5:30am that morning...but I think I freaked mom out a little cause she never heard that type of cry...she said it was like I was lost & scared.

Anyway mom came home a little early from work and lets just say no dogster last night and it was BED!

So Mr. Storm listen!!!!! and you better listen LOUD!!!

Please go away we have had enough loud noises and bright lights for this year.

Out & Over

Enny

OMD! Scarey!!!

So I just have to tell someone about what happened last night.

If you have read Harrison's latest diary he said that he is now not scared of thuder storms..k?

So we have been having them quite a lot since it is so hot & humid out...and I have been pretty good...since I am deaf (according to mom) I dont hear the thunder BUT if I see the lighting that is a different story!!!

Now usually I will go to bed with mom between 7-8ish and I normally go right to sleep after I get my nightly eye drops in and I cuddle with my baby lion toys everynight. Now I usually end up hiding my face in the toys and I have a great sleep. But last night I didnt get the chance to hide my face!! OMD lighting EVERYWHERE!!!!!!!! I ran outta the room and hid in the bathroom...mom was looking everywhere for me, I kinda stuck my face outta the door and looked at her...i was SCARED! Mom and Harrison came to get me and brought me back to bed. Well that didnt last long. More lighting it just wouldnt stop last night..so I bolted again. Mom was worried cause when I wander I some how always end up falling down the stairs even though there is a gate it is only put up agaist the stairs and I always find a way to get out.

So she came to get me again and this time I started to fall asleep in moms arms, it was nice she was rocking me back & forth. And mom finally put me in the bed facing the wall and she ended up sleeping the opposite way on the bed to block the lighting coming in.

So mom gets up for work and man oh man does she look tired....sorry mom.....but mom put my AM drops in and gave me a hug & kiss and she told me to stay in bed all day and relax.

I betcha mom will be asleep early tonight!!

Anyway I shall be hiding my head tonight early just incase!!

Hugs

Surgery Update

So I knew something was up this morning....cause it was more than just mom up at the crack of dawn!!!!! Then I was taken downstairs put in the car before the sun had even come up!!!!! and Harrison was watching in the window.......I am like crap...I cant sneak outta this one.....

So I get left and the dogtor did promise mom to get me home as quick as possible..which was good...and I was home just around lunch time and Harrison checked me over head to toe...and then we went to bed. I am not allowed in my favourite window dogtor told mom to watch me make sure I dont lick my wound :-P. I have to tell you I have been really good...cause I have been quite sleepy today and my nurse maid Harrison has been really good!! (I can rent him out if you ever need a good nurse!!!)

Mom made us pork tenderlion tonight (actually a can made by FROMM) mixed with duck...super duper yummy :-)

Mom noticed that I am not totally walking on my leg today and that some of the stitches were bleeding but not too bad...she said she will take a better look tomorrow hopefully when I feel better.

Think I am going to bed soon but I wanted to stop by and tell everyone thank you for your prayers, once mom gets the results she will let everyone know.

Hugs & Kisses

Family Day

So we just had a long weekend here in Ontario!! Feels kinda strange cause mom is usually at work 5 days a week during winter....but we now have a new holiday called Family Day!

Our family day started off with me getting a BATH! Geez....I think mom misunderstood what family day is about!

So when I was getting a bath mom felt something kinda not right on my back leg...when she sorted through my hair....she said oh no! Mom said it looked like a tumor (doctor called it my skin cancer) removed back in 2005. So mom called my dogtor and we were lucky to get in today cause he is on vacation next week. So Mom was right...same leg...same spot...but dogtor said that it should have not grown back for the type of tumor that it was.

So dogtor said that I have to come in tomorrow at 8am and have it removed and sent away to see what is going on with this....please cross your paws that everything comes back with negative results....mom wont get them for about 2 weeks or so.....

On the upside Harrison got his Valentines pressy from Tuesday and she sent really cool things so Harrison let me play with his new toy and stuff!!!

PS: Harrison is very protective of me....mom was told that he cried and would not leave the front window till I got home. When we got home he checked me over...see brotherly love :-)

**BELLA P IS MISSING HELP US FIND HER******

From Bella P's mom , please read and post

Hello Fluffs
I cant thank everyone enough for all the wonderful support and love you have given me and my family at this time. I am just a total wreck and cant seem to keep it together for more than five minutes.

Bella was wearing a pink collar with a gold heart tag.
She is not microchiped... she was scheduled to be this month.

She is gold and white with a white tail and four white paws.
She is aprox 10 lbs and has a black rubberband in her top knotch.


I cant thank everyone enough for all the prayers and kind and comforting words, I am really trying to stay calm, but its not working. If any of you would like to post her information some where that would great.. I am trying to get her all the exposure I can get.
I know she couldnt have gone far becuase she doesnt run.. she is a roamer and sniff sniff... im sure you all know how that is

I am praying that she did not have to sleep out in the cold last night and are going to do anything in my power to try and find my baby girl.
She is my life, my everything...
I have seen STAFU prayers work MANY times.. and I just hope that the lord above will hear us howling and will bring my baby girl back to me safely.

Love you all and Thank you

So she goes to the dogtor on Monday to find out that she has a DOUBLE ear infection!!! BOL!

Haha!!! See mom that is what you get for making me take all of my ear medications for the past 4 weeks!!!!!

So that is why we have been quiet for the past few days....mom has been working late and when she gets home..time for HER medication and HER pills!!!

Hey Mato....you gotta try this one on your mom!!!

Hugs
Enny

PS , Yes I am still getting my ear medication....dogtor told mom to finish all we had. Ohh and dogtor said my paw looks good...BUT that I will either need to be super duper careful while outside OR mom will have to put my boots on...cause dogtor said that it could flare up again...so looks like boots all winter for me!! YEAH!! I love warm toes!

OMD!

Guess What!!!!!!

I am FEELING alot better today!! Mom says that I am about 95% better!!

Cause I am playing with my baby lions!! When I am not feeling well I dont play with NOTHING! Mom put me on the bed and I bounced over and played with all 4 baby lions on the bed! I howled for mom!!! I beat up Harrison!! Today has been GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now mom is still doing the cleaning and pills....until they are gone...but LOOK out!

Update on pAW :-(

ok....so it has been since Thursday....today is Sunday....my paw is looking better but still hurts to walk on...mom is watching me like a hawk. It snowed alot out last night and walking in the snow now mixed with rain = ice = ouch!!

So I go out for my pee and wait for mom to come and get me, then we go and rinse my paw just incase something else got in it which is ok cause I got the cleanest paws in town! BOL!

Now me and mom have not been on talking terms since she has started to help my paw get better, but I do understand why she is doing it...it just hurts!

So this is my day....4 eye drops x 2, ear medication x 2, pills x 2, cleaning of paw at least 4 times a day or more!!

Thanks to all my pals who have sent me get well pmails & rosettes, it really means alot...since mom & me are not the best of friends right now...and Harrison is trying to make me feel better. He went crazy for the snow!!! He was running and running trying to get me to join him but I just couldnt run with him. Hopefully my paw will feel better soon to run...then mom will know that I am feeling better! :-)

Countdown to vet.....5 days!! Cant wait till Friday!!!

Hugs

Enny

oUCH! :-(

Hey Everypup!

Well today I went back to the dogtor about my ear infection...and the good news is he said it is getting better but I still need my meds for another 7 days...then mom can stop if it looks good...if not I need to go back...I hate little nasty ear infections that just like to stay!! Right Mato? they SUCK!

Anyway...I guess the sort of bad news is that mom noticed I was not walking on my front paw this AM...she looked could not find anything so she thought maybe I slept on my arm....or something... so she comes home tonight to bring me to the vet for my ear....she asks him to take a look cause I wouldnt give mom my paw...and there is a big abscess between my toes about the size of a toonie....and the dogtor took a needle to see what would come out....I cried and cried so loud...mom got blood all over her from me squirming around.....dogtor got as much as he could but mom needs to soak my paw twice a day and guess what??

Yes, I go back next week!!

It looks like I am back to my weekly vet visits!! Lucky I like my dogtor! He does give me lots of kisses and hugs....

Anyway I gotta go cause mom is yelling at me for licking my paw....so it is time for the 1st paw soaking!!

Hugs

Enny

My Earth Angel

she has answered my prayers!!!!!!!!!

Yes, My Mollie, my one and only! She is just the best thing that has ever happened to me (except for my mom, Harrison...and my baby lion toys)

Ohhh and I wanted to mention that Harrison and I are going to see our vet tomorrow for our regular checkup...which means needles...and anything else mom can think of!!

Which means mom has a list written down of all the things she wants to ask!! Great! just what we need to spend more time THERE!!!!!!!!

Lets see if I can guess.......

#1 Are the boys over weight? Should they go on a low cal diet?
#2 I think Lenny needs maybe more fiber in his diet but I have already changed his food...what else can we do?
#3 Harrison is ALWAYS hungry...and he sneaks food!! What can we do?
#4 I think Lenny is getting dry skin.......other than special shampoo's is they anything else we can use?
#5 Both boys have quite a few new bumps all over there body, should they all be checked over just in case?

You know I can go on and on....I can read her MIND!!! She doesnt know this...so please dont tell her! (actually she talks in her sleep ALL THE TIME)

Anyway just thought I would right a short note and say Hi to everyone but I gotta go eat my dinner with fibre and get it before Harrison eats it all!

So....wish us luck tomorrow night!!

Hugs to All

Enny

PS. If you hear a dog cry really really loud about 6pm tomorrow...ahhh that will be the big boy (Harrison) he HATES needles but he likes to go in and see the vet....werido eh?

Ouch!

Hey Everyone
Harrison thought that I should write a little update since he has written quite a bit in his diary!!

Anyway mom noticed that my right eye was getting red and this is my good eye!! And my left eye looked normal...and so she proceeded to put a warm cloth on my sore eye and dry it then put my eye meds in....I now have 5 differnt meds for my eyes twice a day. The reddness sort of went away but then came back and it was really bad...my eye was puffy and I was crying....it H U R T! So mom called my eye dogtor and I got in the next day...Mom said that I was really good when I went in...I stayed really still while he was doing all of the tests...dryness, pressure, stain, and he was looking into my eye with some other new toys he said he just updated.

Anyway I have a pretty big ulcer on my right eye...and the dogtor was a little concerned as I had never had them on my right eye, just my left....

So mom and me waited to pay the bill, get my prescription and go and pick up my meds...but as we where leaving it started to rain....rain really hard and the wind was crazy and the sky was black!! Since I wasnt feeling well mom held me the whole time till we got to the pharmacy and I went to visit my friends there (the ones that give me my meds) , you see they know when mom calls she says "Lenny the Dog" needs his meds, and they deliver to my door!!! Once in a while we stop in and say Hi!!

So we got back into the car and went home! Man I was tired that night! We ate dinner in bed and went to sleep!

Woke up the next day to someone waking me and Harrison up....guess where we went!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To our most favorite vacation from mom!! To the groomers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We got our faces all clean and mom said that we smell great!!

Anyway it is almost face washing time and then off to bed....

Hopefully my eye will feel better by Monday, it is a long weekend here so if not Mom will need to call the dogtor again!

Anyway hope to bark at ya all soon!

Hugs

Lenny AKA "tHE tOy HOg"

Like a favorite blanket on a chilly night
or when I'm feeling blue
Your love wraps itself around me

I'm so happy it was you.
