Arrival Story:
There are some local drunks who hang out near my local grocery store. They are completely harmless, but are always at this one little park. One day as we were going to the grocery store, we passed by these guys and saw them with the cutest dog ever. His ears were so big we thought he might be part Gremlin. The guys in the park claimed they had just gotten him and that he needed a name... I knew something was wrong b/c this little cutie already had tags. We went to the grocery store and when we came back out, Comet was still there with some more locals and were complaining that someone left the dog with them and didn't come back. They said they weren't ready to have a dog and asked if I wanted him. Just like that, they handed me Comet's leash and home we went. Since Comet had tags, we brought him to the local shelter where they were able to determine that Comet's rightful owner moved to Puerto Rico and is not coming back. That was all I needed.... Comet spent a couple weeks at the shelter going through some behavioral and medical testing - there were a couple of issues that led us to believe we wouldn't be able to adopt him. But fortunately, we worked through it all and Comet finally came home with us 3 weeks later!

Bio:
This poor guy - we don't know anything about his past, where he has been, what he has been up to or anything at all!

Life with my new Mom and Dad...

I've been living the high life now in Charlestown, MA for about a month. The past few weeks since I have gotten over being sick have been GREAT!

Mom bought me some great toys and we play with them a lot. Mom and Dad chase me around the house, but they are just silly b/c I am WAY faster than they are.

I've also found some great places to snuggle. Mom's nightstand has a great little cubbie hole that I can hide away in. Recently Mom went on a business trip and left her suitcase out before she started packing - wow, that was a comfy spot for a rest.
Then when she came home, she never unpacked the suitcase, just unzipped it - so I found my way inside and slept there all night until 10am when Mom woke me up.

I really can't complain - Anne the old lady next door comes to play with me every day. She talks to me a lot about her old dog Maggie who died. So I like to keep her company. She takes me sometimes to the beach and Building 19 and for rides in the car and even to visit with her friend Anna. They are really nice to me and even let me eat lunch with them.

So, I'll write again soon - Mom bought me this silly Halloween costume so I am sure I'll have some good stories next week.


Peace Out Dudes.... *Comet!


The worst 4 days of my life.....

Well, last you heard from me, I was going under the knife - they took my manhood from me.... It's gone! That was a Wednesday in early October. I felt TERRIBLE that whole day, they gave me so many drugs to knock me out - I think I was hallucinating. Mom looked like she was going to cry...

By Thursday night I felt so much better and played a lot with Mom and Dad. Then they went to sleep and suddenly in the night, I didn't feel so good anymore.
As Mom says, I more or less "exploded" all over the entire appartment, every room, furniture etc. Anything that could come out of my body in any way did - I was sooooooooooo sick. I had a fever, I was shaking, it was awful.

Mom took me straight to the hospital where they gave me some meds.
I didn't eat for days.

Mom took me to the hospital again b/c I wasn't eating and they did some tests, took some blood and they couldn't figure out what was wrong with me.

All I did for 4 days was sleep, no eating, and shiver... It was TOUGH! Dad thought I was going to die!

Well - whatever it was ran it's course and now I am back up and running with the big dogs! I feel like a million bucks.

Mom thinks I got sick b/c she doesn't know where I lived for the 7 years before she found me, then I lived with some drunks, then I was in that crappy shelter all depressed and sad, then Mom took me home and I was happy, but then she took me to be neutered - so maybe my immune system just failed me and that is why I got so sick.

It's a tough day...
Mom & Dad took me to the dog park last night to play with all of the other dogs and they are just so fun. Especially the puppies - My Mom is embarassed about this, but I really like to hump the puppies.....

Mom kept mentioning something about how hopefully all of that embarassment would change after today....

Next thing I kn0w, I come home from my morning walk this morning, Mom doesn't give me any breakfast and she appears with the same leash that they gave me at the shelter... Something must be up... And it was, there I was back at the shelter and it looked like Mom was going to cry when she left.

Thankfully she said she would be back later this afternoon.

After 7 years, those silly people at the shelter said that I needed to be "neutered"... Can you even believe that? This is going to hurt like hell...

I'll give the rest of you doggies the update and re-cap once I am up and running again.
