"A Dog's Life" ... Heck I'm a Little Boy!! :-)

PLEASE PRAY FOR ME AND MY PARENTS, too.

Hi Everybody!
My Mommy found a lump on my belly. She thought it was on one of my nipples, but she is not a Vet so she didn't know. After about one week or so, she and Daddy took me to the Vet. I was a really good boy and everyone was proud of me, they said. The Vet, Dr. K. is so nice and a pretty lady too, Daddy says so too. :-) Well Dr. K. took a needle and pushed it into the lump to get a sample of the cells in it. Then she asked us to wait while she looked at it under the microscope. She came back into the room and said the cells were quite abnormal and that it would need to be removed as soon as possible. She did want me on an antibiotic for a little while before my surgery, so I am on them now and my surgery is on Mon. Sept. 14th. She calls it a "mastectomy". Yikes thats my private part, but since I am a boy I have not ever needed them for anything, lol ... wuff wuff. The scary part is that is could be cancerous and that makes my Mommy cry and I am scared too. Even Daddy is scared but he has Faith that I am going to be Okie Dokie!! Mommy would feel better if she had a lot of people praying for me though. I would ask the same for myself! Thanks so much for praying for me. I will keep you posted on the results of my surgery!! Wuff you all, Zach

My Birthday!! 3/20/2003

Well well I just had my 6th birthday on March 20th, 2009. I cannot believe that my Mom only began my diary now when I have been on Dogster for 2 years! She is busy like everybody else, but she is a special lady, at least for me and for my Dad, (her hubby, lol)!! I got some new stuffed animals for my birthday ... and I know how to open my own presents too. I rip the paper open, and I never eat any of the paper either! I only get the toy out or treat out or whatever Mom and Dad have given me. This year I did not get many treats to open, because I am going through a rather rough time right now. I am having some pretty severe allergy problems and no one knows just yet what all I am allergic to. My Vet, a really nice lady, says I am allergic to Beef. Bummer ... that rules out a lot of treats ya know, yup! Woof ... Now My Mommy & Daddy give me dried pineappple tidbits, and cut up apple pieces, and carrots and green beans for starters. My Vet says because I have these skin problems, I have to stay on my hypo-allergenic diet for probably many months. Until we know everything I am allergic too. She says a vegetarian diet is like a hypo-allergenic diet. So, I get special food & special hypo-allergenic treats, that are biscuits! Oh woof woof! I really don't care much for the carrots unless they cook them. They used to taste much better when they had been cooked with a roast in the crock pot, but now Mommy says I can only have them cooked in water. Yup woof, just plain ole H2O. I like them though. Actually it is a much healtheir diet than those Beggin Strips were. So ya gotta appreciate it. Plus it takes my Mommy and Daddy more time to fix these treats, then to just open a bag. So I know they really love me A LOT!!! And I love them a lot too!! Gotta go for now, so to all my buddies, Have a Great Day! Wuff ya!!
