In June I had a med load for my epilepsy as it just wasn't stopping my seizures. It made me soooo tired, all the time. It stopped the seizures alright but I wasn't myself at all. I didn't play, I slept. I didn't care much about walks, I slept. I didn't even play with my favorite puppy, yep, I slept. A while back I started playing a little bit more. And then...three weeks ago I started waking up my She every morning by pawing the bed, jumping on it and my She's least favorite thing, barking in her face! But that was early morning stuff and my She, didn't think much about it as she was barely awake. Hmph! Then one night I dismantled my toy box, I took ALL my toys out and scattered them in the hallway. I have a new favorite stuffy, another dog, heehee. I have demanded three walks a day, and don't mind if I can squeeze a fourth and I go a long long way. Short legs be damned. And playing?! I play and chase and play and chase. Awoooroooo...I am back and raring to go, where's my puppy?
I admit it, when we started to go the reserve way on our walk this afternoon, I wasn't too pleased. But then we got to the park and the whole thing was a festival! There were booths and people and dogs and food and food smells. I was petted by children, my picture was taken, petted by adults, people looked at me so much and asked my She questions. I met a bunch of dogs and was good with them all. My She was happy as people kept saying how nice I was and how well behaved I was. I listened to my She, even when I found a nice place to sit and she wanted me to move, I did move and then found there was another nice place to sit down. She talked to people about me having epilepsy and how now that my seizures were controlled I was a regular dog. Several people were surprised I was only 5 years old, because I guess I am round, but my She stuck up for me and told the truth, I am wide but in very good shape as we walk alot. Also I am half Schnauzer and my She thinks that makes me look older. It was fun but exhausting, after we got home, I ate dinner and needed a long nap! Hope we go back tomorrow!
She hit the alarm off, and I waited, pretty patiently, I might add. Then I pawed at her, and jumped both paws on the bed. And barked, and did it again. I walked to the other side and got on the steps and rattled the bed on that side. GET UP!!!! Finally she got out of bed, staggering into the kitchen and made my brakfast. By that time I had gone back to sleep. Exhausting work getting my peep up. I have been very affectionate today, insisting my She pet me. She didn't call it that, she kept saying, I was being a pest. Me?! Just because I wanted my chin, shoulder, and chest petted for a long long time?
