A Day in the Life of Zelda

I Love Dr. Browning And He Loves Me!


October 10th 2008 12:23 am   [link to this entry]

YIPEE!

No more poo pawblems fur me! Momma was getting pretty worried about me. Fur a couple of weeks I'd been having alot of pawblems with my tummy.

Momma and Daddy haven't been real impressed with our regular veterinarians the past several times any of us had to go in fur something. Every time we'd have a visit, we'd get a different vet. There had been a few incidents that really scared Mom. Like the wrong directions an dosage written on a prescription bottle... the second visit fur the same pawblem and the the second Dr asked Momma what pawblem we were there for and what the furst Dr did. Ummm... isn't that what chart notes are supposed to tell them??? Anyway, it was time fur our furmily to meet a new vet. Momma looked up Dogster Local and found that our pals Sparky, Tucker, Molly and Katie had wunnerful woofs about Dr. Todd Browning here in Eugene. Our Daddy's people Dr's nurse, who rescues pups, also couldn't say enough good things about Dr. B. And he is the only vet in his office! YIPEE!!!

So, anyways, this past Saturday, I went to meet Dr. B! I LOOOVE him! And he LOOVES me, too! He gave me a very thorough exam along with lotsa yubbies! And he told me I was beautiful and such a very sweet grrrl, 'specially fur being a Chihuahua... *furrows brow, tilts head* whatever that was supposed to mean! *giggle, blush* And then, when Momma told him I'm also 1/2 MinPin, he said that was another strike against me! BOL!

Dr. B told Momma I have a case of Colitis, that's pawbably why I had blood in my poo. He gave me some super yummy, good-fur-my-tummy food and some medicine to sprinkle on it. He also took my blood and ran a whoooole buncha tests to make sure there wasn't something else, more serious, going on. Then he trimmed my nails. And I was a good grrrl fur him! *big smile, chest puffed up*

I went home with Momma with my new yummy, good-fur-my-tummy food and my medicine and we waited fur Monday to find out my blood test results.
Dr. B also gave us some kibble as our new main food. It's... ummm.. *blush* diet food. Of course I know itmainly fur my sisfur Penny Ann. She's pretty... ummm... well, let's just say that the new diet food will pawbably be real good fur her. And just to make Penny feel a li'l better, Dr. B said that even I may be a teensy-weensy bit "pudgy"! Hmmmph! Imagine that! But, well, I understand. I mean, we don't want poor Penny Ann to feel singled out or anything!

So, anyway, Monday rolled around and sure enough! At 9:30 a.m. - on the dot - the phone rang and it was Dr. B himself! NOT a nurse.... NOT a receptionist... NOT an assistant!!! Momma loooved that! She was even happier when he told her that all of my blood work looked beautiful (just like me! BOL!). He said I'm pawfect! The only thing was that my pancreas #'s were a little bit high. That means from now on I have to be on a low fat diet... fur sure. But heck! That's not so bad!

Momma's been doing some checking and she's finding out about things that I can have that are low fat. We're pretty happily surprised to find out there really are quite a few pretty pawsome treats I can have that are low fat. Sad pawt? NO MORE BULLY STICKS FUR ME!!! * pout* I LOOOVE bully sticks! DARN! But, oh well. I think Penny and Teddi and Link are a li'l bit pissy at me about that. Momma says if I can't have bully sticks, then none of us Tater Tots are going to have them! Thanks, Mommy! I love my momma! She went out and got us all some lowfat, really yummy treats and some pawsome white bones with hollow centers. We love them!

So, anyways, since I've started my medicine and new food, Every single poo has been pawfect! Momma's reeeaallly happy about that! And so am I!

I can hardly wait 'til I have to go to see Dr. B again sometime. He's cool!

I'll be woofin' ya all later! G'night, my furiends!

XOXO Zeldy ♥

My Poor Li'l Tummy-tum. :(


September 27th 2008 8:17 pm   [link to this entry]

Hey, everypup! Long time, no woof!

Seems like it's been furever since I've barked in my diary. Us Tater Tots haven't had much woof-time the past few weeks, 'Specially this past week. And, wow! We've really missed some impawtant events. Some of which are happy and cool, others which are not so happy and cool and, actually, rather heart-breaking and sad. However; I will save that topic to bark with my sisfurs and brofur in our Tater Tots diary.

I'm here right now to woof about my tummy troubles. Actually, I guess technically it would be 'poo pawblems'. Momma's starting to worry more about me as the days go by.

A couple of weeks ago I started having some pretty loose, runny poos. Mom didn't worry too much at furst. Us doggies do get the 'poos' sometimes, but usually it's 'cuz we ate something really pawsome that we just aren't used to eating. Us Tater Tots don't ever get table scraps or any human food, except maaaaybe a little bite of an apple or a baby carrot - some raw, organic veggie or fruit- and then it's only a tiny bite and very infrequent.

So, anyway, after a day or so, my poo started to look more like usual - good, firm, healthy li'l turds. But then a couple days later, back to 'the poos' again. It lasted a couple days, then started to firm up and look normal again. So, this has been going on fur a good couple of weeks now. Every time Momma decides she better get me to the vet fur an exam, my poo starts to look normal again.

I haven't been acting real sick or lethargic or anything. Just those darn 'poos', and I haven't really been very interested in my dog food. I'm more than happy to oblige Momma by scarfing down a Milk Bone or chew on a bully stick, so Mom sorta tends to think I'm just holding out fur something tastier and more special than my regular kibble.

Momma's been trying to figger out why I might be getting 'the poos'. The only thing different with my diet over the past few weeks has been some really super-yummy chicken jerky that Mom bought fur us. She likes to let Penny Ann and I have something special in the morning when she and Daddy take off fur work with Teddi Sue.

So, after reading the label on the chicken jerky container, Momma is fuming mad and just a li'l bit worried. The container reads MADE IN CHINA!!! I heard Momma ranting and asking Daddy "WHY would anyone still be selling pet food and treats that are made in CHINA?!!!" I think Momma is mostly mad at herself fur assuming that everyone cares enough about fur babies to NOT sell food products that are made in China.

Sure. Supposedly "they" are watching things closely and regulating ingredients, yada-yada-yada... Well, Momma doesn't fall fur that noise and she doesn't think anyone in their right mind should either! She's really mad and disappointed that anyone would continue to sell food products that are made by people who obviously do not care about a fur baby's (or a HUMAN BABY'S, fur that matter) health and safety. (Just look at what is happening to little human babies now, with the milk!)

Needless to woof, Momma has returned the uneaten portion of the jerky back to.... well, 'THE STORE' where she purchased it. She also vehemently expressed her disappointment at, and her opinion of, them buying and selling pet food products from China.

She knows the reason they continue to do it and it is SICK! They do it because it is CHEAP and they can MAKE MORE MONEY than they can by selling products that are safe and held to higher standards and are made in the USA! Excuse me, but my health and safety, and that of my fellow furs, is worth so much more than all the stinkin' money in the world!

Now, neither of my sisfurs or my brofur have been having 'poo issues' or any other noticeable health pawblems, and it pawbably isn't the chicken jerky that is causing my pawblems, but it could be.

Link doesn't live here with us anymore. Since August of 2007 he's been living with our furless brother and Kaiti since they got their own place. So, he got less of the jerky. Plus, he's quite a bit bigger than I am. He weighs about 13 pounds, as opposed to my almost 9 pounds.

Penny Ann lives here, but she got less 'cuz she's tubby, so Momma snuck me extra a few times when Penny wasn't looking. Plus Penny also weighs alot -*giggle* alot more than I do!

Teddi Sue got less jerky 'cuz she gets to go to work with Mom and Dad every day, so she doesn't get a special treat every morning. *Nya-nya*

This morning 'the poos' were back big-time! This time there was, what looked like, blood in it!

None of us have had any of the jerky fur over a week now, but something is giving me 'the poos'. Momma is hoping and praying that the jerky wasn't bad and that it didn't somehow damage my organs.

The lady at the Emergency Veterinary Hospital told Momma that I could pawbably wait until Monday and go to my regular vet, unless I start doing worse - like vomiting or becoming lethargic, etc...

So, Momma is watching me closely and giving me lotsa yubbies *big smile* and on Monday she will be taking me to see the vet - even if my poo looks better.

I'm goin' to go take a li'l nap under my blankie now. "Night-night!

Momma's Worried.....


September 27th 2008 2:22 pm   [link to this entry]

Momma's worried about me. I've been having some... well... 'poo' issues. She's watching me closely. I'll woof more on this later tonight.

XO, Zeldy♥

Yipee! Bully Sticks!


August 15th 2008 8:00 am   [link to this entry]

Woohoo! Mom's leaving bully sticks home fur us Tater Tots today! YES!! (I'll pawbably have them ALL right next to me by the time the pawents get home from work! Tee hee!)

Any more questions? ;)

July 6th 2008 6:13 pm   [link to this entry]

So, looks like the pawents owe me a li'l apawlogy. Yep. I have been a good grrl, it seems!

My brofer, the Tater Tot known as Link, hasn't been over here to hang out with us fur the past week or so, and guess what?! That's right! Mommy and Daddy haven't been coming home to the usual little pile-o-dog poo inside the front door!

I was sooo sick of hearing "Zelda Marie, what's this?! Did YOU poop in the house???!!!"

Well, actually guys.... NO! I DIDN'T! Ya might wanna talk to your sweet, little, innocent Yicky Boy! Yes! I am the sweet, little princess diva that you always tell me I am! *bats eyelashes*

Now, I think I'll go find a bone to steal from one of my sisfurs. *wanders into living room, looking fur Teddi and Penny*

Wiggles 'n waggles, Zeldy♥

Calling All Kids - Fur and Human!


May 12th 2008 2:34 am   [link to this entry]

Mother's Day was lots more fun this year! This is only the second time I've been around to celebrate Mother's Day, but it was the very best ever!!! Last year my human brother was in the Air Force, living on Okinawa. "Too far away!", Momma said. And our sister, Teddi Sue, had been stolen hundreds of miles from home, 3-4 weeks before. We didn't know where she was and soooo many of our Dogster and Catster furiends were doing a massive SAR mission fur her. Thank Dog, our furiends were pawsomely successful! Austin and Teddi Sue are both home now. And fur good!

My human brother and Aunt Kaiti brought Link over to play with Teddi Sue, Penny and me while they took Mommy, Daddy and Uncle Austin out fur a nice dinner. Of course, that was after the humans all just relaxed and visited and laughed a bunch. We all got lots of scratches, tummy rubs and yubbies. We got to race around the house, and out in our pen, for hours! We got Mommy to let us out and back in at least 30 times!

It is absowoofly much better and lots more fun to have all the kids home fur Mother's Day!

I hope all of my pals and their families had as pawsome a day as ours did!

Kissies, Zeldie ♥

Zelda Marie... Under Cover


April 26th 2008 1:35 pm   [link to this entry]

So, Mom came home from work the other day and, like always, the furst thing she did after dumping her armload of stuff she carried in from the work truck, was making the rounds to say hello to Penny, Link and me and giving us our yubbies and kissies. Penny got hers furst. She always likes to sniff Mom's breath. I guess she must be checking to see what yummies Momma had that she didn't share with us. Then Momma went to Yicky Boy and he got some yubbers an' smoochers. Finally! My turn! Mommy pulled back the snuggle sack to dig me out of there, but she just started laughing and ran fur the camera!
Ya see, every day when Mom and Dad go to work, Teddi Sue goes with them and they leave nice bones fur me, Penny and Link. Sometimes we also get a bully stick or a pig ear or something, too. My main mission during the day is to try to gather each bone, treat and toy and bring them under the snuggle sack.
Well, on that pawticular day, I had been very successful in my mission. Appawently, Mommy thought that was quite amusing. Pawhaps I'm not the sweet, li'l , innocent princess diva that she likes to think I am! Check out my main pic today to see what Mommy saw when she peeked under the snuggle sack!

Dog Parks Fur the Birds! BOL!


March 22nd 2008 7:43 pm   [link to this entry]

I woof my furiends I tell Diary all about my adventure... or, well, me woof 'nightmare', at the Dog Park. I take long time to woof. It was just the worstest thing that effur happen to me! Make me cry big puppy dog tears just to woof!
So... one day, my brother, Link, come over and play with us at our house. All us Tater Tots all together! *high paws* Mommy get great big idea take us to play at Dog Park! Weeeee! Sound like such fun time!!! Penny Ann, Teddi Sue, Link and me, pretty Diva Zeldy, jump really high up into our truck. I sit on Mommy's lap *smile*, Penny, Teddi, Link sit in back seat, look out window to bark at every doggie, peoples running, skateboards banging, bicycles zooming. Whole time Mommy and Daddy yell "Quiet!" "No!, It's okay!" "Don't bark!" "Link!, Penny!!! NO!!!" "Teddi Sue, SIT!" Blah, blah, blah.... Wow! What a fiasco! Whatever that is... That what Daddy call our ride in our truck! All that barking and yelling make me start my little Chi vibration. Me go 'shake, shake, shake'. Mommy hug me, give me kissy-mwah-mwah on my head. She tell me I so pretty, such a good little grrl. I love Mommy. *sigh*

Finally, we get to great big field, lotsa green grass, and I sniff the air. I smell many doggie smells. Momma say look fur Ziggy Moonbeam! He live near here! Maybe he play at the Park today! But I don't smell Ziggy. Only lotsa other doggies we don't know. Lotsa BIG DOGGIES we don't know.
Mommy and Daddy carry us all across the street, through metal gate that have big spaces, so little doggies like me, pretty Diva Zeldy, can fit through space and run away to street. Mommy say that bad, they make park only safe fur big doggies! Grrrr! So Mommy stay close by gate to keep us little ones from running out to street.

Teddi Sue and Link go run really fast chasing big Great Danes and Pit Bull doggies. They play rough, have fun. Teddi and Link like rough play but not me, pretty Diva Zeldy. I like snuggle with blankies, get yubbies from Mommy, play little bit gentle with Rosie kitty or chew on my chewie or bone.
Big Bully doggies and Great Danes want to play with me and run to me and sniff, it scare me very, very much. And it very cold, wet grass, kinda muddy. Even with my pretty sweater on I still get chilly and shivery cold. Now I be cold and scared, just want Mommy pick me up and love me, so I feel dizzy. Momma say to Daddy "Honey, look at Zelda! Something's wrong with her!" Momma see me stumble little, then turn in circle one time...two times, then I fall down my front legs, get up. Then I turn in circle and stumble again, and I fall right over on my side, flat down in wet grass and mud! I FAINT! Mommy scream to Daddy "Get Penny, Ted and Link! We have to go to the vet NOW!!!" Mommy scoop me up and hug me tight. She wrap me up in her coat and she cry big puppy dog tears. She run to our truck and tell me "It's okay, Baby. It's okay, sweet Zeldy. Momma got you...it's okay. Blah,blah,blah..." Daddy hurry try to catch my sisters and brother. Link run away through space in gate and run across street, go through neighborhood. Finally Daddy catch him and we all in truck now. Daddy drive, Momma telling him "Oh, no! What's wrong with her? I think she had a seizure!" (Whatever that is. *scratches head*) "We need to get her to the Emergency Vet in Springfield right now!"

Meanwhile, Mommy keep loving me and hugging and telling me I'm good and pretty and that I be okay. She keep her nice warm coat on me and snuggle. Pretty soon I be like happy, pretty Diva again. No more cold and scared. Just cuddle my momma. Daddy say "She's okay now. She was just soooo scared and cold! She had a case of 'The Vapors'! She fainted, like a dainty Southerne belle!" And Mommy tell Daddy I seem better now and tell me I never have to go to Dog Park ever again!
So, instead of go to vet in Springfield, Mommy and Daddy take me home. They put me in my basket near woodstove with my soft, fluffy blankie that my sweetheart, Kiko, sended me fur Christmas. Momma lay on the floor by me and whisper to me I'm a good grrl and now I'm safe and warm and no big doggies trying to sniff me and jump on me.

Mommy say I be okay now, and I am. I love my blankie and my basket and my nice, warm home. I think I leave Dog Park fur other doggies who like play rough and tumble and jump all around. I stay home and play little bit gentle with my kitty, Rose. Mommy tell me she sorry and she never make me go to Dog Park effur, effur again!

So, that was my adventure... 'er, well nightmare at the Dog Park. And that why I think Dog Park fur the birds! BOL!

I guess Mommy doesn't like the fun new game I've invented. When she opens the back door to let us pups run in from outside, I like to run over to the laundry and jump in the basket of nice, clean clothes! Mmmmm!!! It's so wonderfully soft and smells so wonderfully clean and nice!
I think I'd better watch my back! bol

Oh, Gosh! I's Sooo Spoiled! And I's Sooo- 'Barrassed! *BLUSH*


January 7th 2008 2:24 am   [link to this entry]

I cannot believe how long it has been since I have gotten a chance to woof in my Diary!!!
Not only does that hurt my feelings and make me wonder if I may not be quite as special as some other furkids around here... it is totally 'barrassing 'cuz I got some furry sweet, loving and pawesome woofs and gifts from several of my special, furry- much-loved furiends, right here on Dogster, and I've not even had a chance to woof about it!

Well, I s'pose Momma has been busy and, well, we do have alot of furkids in the family. I s'pose she tries to let us each have some time whenever we can.

But anyhow! We got tons of beautiful and thoughtful greeting cards wishing us Tater Tots a happy and safe howliday season. Some even had photos of their cute li'l furry selves along with the card!!! Of course each and every one of those wishes is very much appreciated and warmed our hearts, and Momma's, too.

And then one day Momma came out of the post office with a brown box! Those brown boxes usually mean good news! bol
Mom read it and told us that Amber, Skye , Spanky had sent it all the way from New Jersey !

There was a gift fur each of us Tater Tots inside of the brown box! I received a beautiful, shiny charm fur my collar! I just loove it! It's pawfectly.... ME!! What a kind and thoughtful thing fur their family to do.
Penny, Teddi Sue and Link got their gift each, also, but I'll let them woof about that themselves.

Rosie got a brown box from Amee's family, too! She got hers separately and I think it made her feel pretty special. *smile* I'm sure she'll purr about it in her kitty Diary soon.

Now, I'm just dying to get my picture taken with me wearing my lovely, new charm.... Oh, yeah. Sure, I know... she's trying her best....

I did, get lucky, though, a few days later! *AHA!* Momma came home with... what?! GUESS!!!? Yep! Another brown box! This time it was addressed to MISS ZELDA MARIE LALLY.
Of course, it was from my wonderful, loving and handsome sweetheart Kiko! The second I found out, My heart started to pitter-pat and I do believe I even felt a teency bit dizzy. That must be what Mommy means when she says I'm "swooning" over Kiko. *blush* *giggle* It feels goooood! *tee hee*

*clears throat, wipes brow with paw* Eh-hem, ummm, okay, then! Since Momma had taken the camera to work with her that day, that means she was carrying the camera and the brown box at the SAME TIME!!!

So now you may see pictures, on my main page, of me opening the brown box from Kiko! I have to woof that I am such a lucky and happy grrl! Kiko knows me too well and he knows the fastest and most direct route to my heart! He sent me a beautiful, pink, squeaky butterfly, an adorable yellow bunnny with a matching blankie!
The only thing that could have made it any nicer, would be if Kiko, himself, was wrapped up in the blankie when I got it! BOL

Well, I just really hope that all my pals know just how much I love them and how much their friendship and gestures of kindness mean to me. I am furtunate enough to have a furry close, loving family and we all take our friendships very seriously. Our pals are our furiends fur life and we love you all and care about you all.

And always remember, real friends are always there fur each other - no matter if you're happy or sad or mad or silly or...whatever!. You all know where to find me! And I'll always be here fur you. Muah!


Kissy-Muah-Muah!, Zeldy ♥

I Feel Sooo Pretty!


December 7th 2007 7:37 am   [link to this entry]

Mommy bought me a new collar yesterday! It's beauuuuuutiful! It's a lovely shade of pink with purple, pink and green flowers on it. It matches my name tag pawfectly!
Of course, it is about time! My other collar was getting soooo old. It made me look like a ragamuffin. *blush* Now, that's just WRONG ! A beautiful, dainty princess, like me, should always be adorned in the most fashionable attire!
Gee, jus' wait 'til Kiko gets a load of me looking sooo pretty! Betchya if I get him under the Mistletoe, I'll get a smoochie! *blush*

My Woofday Wish Came TRUE!!!


August 22nd 2007 4:06 am   [link to this entry]

I'm a li'l late woofin' this (there's been alot of woofin' goin' on in our family lately. One can only woof so fast !) but! On my furst woofday, when I blew out the candle on my cake, I made a special wish. I kep' it a secret an' I didn't woof a single soul. I said if my wish comes true, we'd have a huuuuuge pawty. Weeeeellll... it DID! ... and we DID!
My baby sister, Teddi Sue, was found in Seattle, WA on June 3, 2007, and was reunited with our family! What a miracle! After nearly 8 weeks missing, having been inside Mom's car when it was stolen, the prayers, hard work and perserverence of our Dogster and Catster furiends and our family, finally paid off and that beautiful baby grrrl came home to us!!! We are the luckiest and most blessed family in the world! I'm sooo happy my woofday wish came true!

My Very Furst Woofday!


May 22nd 2007 3:04 am   [link to this entry]

Wow! What a grrrreat woofday! Yesterday was my very furst woofday! FINALLY!!!! Woohoooo! Seems like I waited furever and EVERYpup else in the whole universe had a woofday before me!!!! So, fur once Mommy was right! Oops! Shhhh! Don't tell her I woofed that, okay???? *looks around nervously* Mommy kep' tellin' me that my woofday would come. An' she said when it did, then all my friends would woof me how much they love me and they would come and help me eat my woofday cake! And .... it came! And.... they did! Spanky and Amber baked me a beautiful woofday cake! When I blew out the candles, Mommy said I should make a wish. So... I made a very special wish, but I can't woof what it is or it won't come true. It is very important fur this wish to come true, so I won't woof anypup what it is..... 'til AFTER it comes true! Then we will all have the biggest, happiest pawty that anypup ever saw!
I wanna woof a great, big gigantic thanks to all of my furtastic furiends fur making my woofday so special. I really love ya all and I'm the luckiest grrl around to have furiends as special as you!
slobbery kissies and Tater hugs, Zeldy

I Miss My Baby Sister.


May 5th 2007 2:58 am   [link to this entry]

Teddi Sue has been lost fur two and a half weeks. It seems like furever. I keep waiting fur her and hoping and praying that she'll come back to us. Link and Penny are here with me. I love them alot and I'm glad that we're together, but we all miss Teddi Sue. Teddi and I love to run all around our outside pen and dodge around the Arborvite trees. We even have a little race track worn into the ground. Mommy is always amazed at how fast we can fly around those trees and each other. She always has to laugh just a little bit, even though she sorta worries that we might crash into each other and bonk our li'l noggins. Don't worry, Ma! We got it handled! Teddi is one fast li'l runner, but I'm still the big sister and she jes' can't quite catch me! She sure tries, though, and we have the most pawtastic time! I want my li'l sister back. I better go snuggle with Mommy. She's crying again.

Been A Loooong Time!


March 4th 2007 10:50 am   [link to this entry]

Wow! I can't believe I haven't woofed to you fur such a long time, Diary! We all have been keeping real busy around here! Teddi Sue and Link came home to live with us furever waaaaay back on January 29th. Those li'l twins are sooo much fun to play with!!! They are my little fur siblings, you know! Yep! Tiger and Reba are the fur pawrents of all three of us! I'm a lucky grrrl to have my very own brother and sister to hang out with furever!
Penny likes 'em okay. She took awhile to warm up, but she even plays with us sometimes, now! Penny is such a good big sister. I still like to snuggle with her and Mommy... at night. The bed's gettin' awful crowded, though! I hope we don't bring any more pups home fur awhile! hehe!
Well, I'll be woofin' ya! I'll try not to wait so long next time. *blush* Woof!

A New Sister!


January 16th 2007 2:42 am   [link to this entry]

Woohooo! Mommy and Daddy went bye-bye in the car on Sunday and when they came home, we smelled PUPPY BREATH on them!!! Upon closer inspection, I noticed the scent of my pup mother and pup father, too! Then Mommy told us the grrreat, exciting news!! In two weeks, my very own, real-life, full sister will be coming home to live with us furever!!!! I am sooooo happy!!! Mommy is mad at herself fur not bringing the camera when they went to see her, but she is going to try to make a trip back again this coming weekend to see her again. She is a beautiful little girl. She isn't colored anything like me, though. In fact, she is about exactly the same color as Penny Ann! Bol! She has the cutest little brown eyebrows, just the shape of human eyebrows! OMD!!! I can hardly wait to see her and give her some puppy kisses! Then we can play and play and play........ Woohoooo! What a happy day! Now I'm a little sister AND a BIG sister! Yay!!! I wonder what her name will be???? Maybe some of our Dogster friends can make suggestions! That would be a really big help! I guess we'll find out soon enough!........*walks away, deep in thought,sweet little smile on face*

My Kitty Sister is Sick!


January 10th 2007 12:18 am   [link to this entry]

Well Diary, I am excited to begin this new year, but I am awfully worried about my kitty sister, Rosie. See, Rosie has had a bad cough fur quite some time now. Mommy tried giving her medicine fur hair balls and even special food, but it didn't help at all. Finally, Rosie went to the doctor and he said that she has something wrong with her heart. He gave her some new medicine to take and it seemed like it was helping fur a couple of days, but now Rosie is back to coughing again. She isn't coughing as much, so Mommy says maybe we just need to adjust the dosage of the medicine. Rosie will go see the doctor again on Friday, so hopefully he will know what to do fur her.
I really, really love Rosie alot! She is sooo soft and fun to play with! She's excellent at giving me body slams, but Mommy hasn't been letting us play very much. She's worried about letting Rosie get too excited.
I hope she gets better really soon because I love her and also she is planning to be married on Valentine's Day!
Well, it's late and Mommy says I have to go to bed now. Goodnight,dear Diary.

Please Don't Let This Happen To You!


December 16th 2006 12:26 pm   [link to this entry]

Dear Diary,
About a week ago, I went through a very scarey ordeal which I would like to warn all of my furfriends about....
Mommy was out shopping. She left us pups home ,*bad Mommy!* in the care of our daddy.We love Daddy lots, but we REALLY love to go bye-bye in the car!
Anyway, Daddy was upstairs, watching television. I am banned from going upstairs. There is a certain hallway up there that is just perfect for going potty in! However; I digress!
Daddy was upstairs, watching television, when he thought he heard a strange sound. He thought maybe a baby was crying, or that kitty Rosie was growling or something. Then Daddy heard Penny begin to bark. So, Daddy went downstairs to investigate.
That is when he found me all tangled up in one of those awful, plastic grocery bags! I had gotten my head through the hole of one of the handles and , in my struggle to remove it, I had twisted the bag around and around until it was soooo tight on my neck that I was choking! I was choking soooo bad that I could only make a terrible high-pitched screaming sound!
Now, Penny, my sister, is always very good about scolding me if I am getting into trouble, so she started to bark at me! I'm sure she knew that I was in big trouble, but her little weiner dog paws just aren't made for untying knots!
When Daddy saw what was happening, of course, he ran to me and tried to get the bag off of my neck! It was on soooo tight that he ended up using a pair of scissors to cut it away from me! Whew!!! That was a VERY close call! I think I could actually see the Rainbow Bridge just up ahead a little ways! It seemed like a very beautiful place, but I am not quite ready to go live there just yet!
I want all of my furfriends to read this story and please be warned! Remind your pawrents and other humans to make sure those bags are put away in a secure place! My pawrents had never even considered them as a hazard! They are especially dangerous if they have stuff in them. The weight makes them twirl around and get twisted on tight.
Thank Dog for my Penny and my daddy!!! I would be barking to you from the Rainbow Bridge if it weren't for them!
I hope you all have a very happy and SAFE holiday season!

Puppy kisses and Candycanes, Zelda

What I'm Thankful Fur

What I'm Thankful Fur
November 18th 2006 10:08 pm [link to this entry]
I think I must be just about the luckiest doggie in the entire universe! Here I am in my nice, warm furever home- with my nice Mommy and Daddy and brother and sister kitty and Penny. I have all the things that a pup could ever want or need to be happy and safe- plus a whole lot more! I have about a millon hundred toys ! Mommy always makes sure that Penny and I have plenty of good dog food and a variety of treats to choose from. I have a sweater and a raincoat and a hat to keep me warm and dry when I have to go

outside to potty. (though I'd still rather sneak upstairs and potty in the hallway!)
There is one more thing that I am very, VERY thankful fur, and that is fur all of my beautiful, fun, crazy, silly, sweet, loving friends on Dogster!!! It makes me so happy inside to know that there are soooooo many nice pups and their mommies and daddies that care about all of the other pups of the world! Not all doggies have it so good. Some pups don't even have a furever home. Some pups have a furever home where they are scared and hungry and cold and unloved. This makes my heart sad. I am always soooo happy when I hear of a sad doggy that finds himself ( or herself, of course!) a nice new furever home where he can be happy and loved and feel safe and warm. Just like my friend Beatrix. She has just about the nicest and bestest mommy and furever home NOW. I really love her alot.
I also have a whooooole lot of other friends here on Dogster who love me and are sooooooooooo nice to me! I am really glad that Mommy found Dogster fur us. When I had to have my little "girlie" operation all of my friends showed me and Mommy how much they care by checking on me and trying to help us to not be scared. I wish they all knew how much their caring and concern means to us.
So, on this Thanksgiving, I want to woof to all of my very nice friends how much I love them and let them know of the joy that they bring into my puppydog life - and also the happiness that they and their mommies and daddies bring to my mommy.
We hope that you all have a very happy and safe Thanksgiving with lots of your loved ones near you. And Mommies and Daddies - don't forget to give lots of turkey to your pups and kitties!! Happy Thanksgiving to you all!

A wonderful, new feeling!


November 29th 2006 11:41 pm   [link to this entry]

I've been feeling a bit strange this past week or so. My mommy wonders what is wrong with me. I cannot concentrate when she tries to teach me new things. My sister, Penny, can't figure out why lately I am wandering around, just being soooo happy with a far-off look in my eye. My daddy has been feeling a little left out, like he isn't as important as he always has been (of course he is, though!) to me.
I'm not sure I really understand, myself, what has come over me.
I met a very handsome Chi- boy named Kiko and it seems that I am thinking of him every single minute of every single day! When I sleep at night, my happy dreams are filled with my sweet beau, Kiko!
Dear Diary, I do believe that I have fallen into that very special and wonderful thing called 'love' !
I can only hope that my sweet, darling Kiko feels the same about me. Oh, how can I tell, dear diary? Could such a wonderful boy love me back, the way I love him? I will just wait and long for the day when I hear him say those 3 precious words to me - "I love you".*sigh*

What the heck is Halloween?!


October 9th 2006 12:45 am   [link to this entry]

Momma took Penny and me shopping today and we tried on about a million funny outfits. Momma says it's for Halloween, whatever that is! All I know is it took a long time to try on all those suits and I got tired and hungry and I had to go potty! Penny gets to be a princess, but I am going to be a wizard cuz the princess hat was too big for my teeny little head. Oh well. Wizards are pretty cool and they are really, really smart- just like ME!!! Halloween sounds like fun! In a couple days , I'll put on my wizard suit and show all my dogster pals. I hafta go potty now! Woof, Woof! - Zelda

Scratch, scratch, itch, itch!


October 3rd 2006 10:12 pm   [link to this entry]

I'm tired of bein' ITCHY!!! Some of my pals have been tryin' to help me figger out what's wrong and they gave me some good ideas. Momma is trying a couple things to see if it helps. First, we're tryin' salmon treats. Strider told me that might help if it's dry skin. We know it isn't fleas cuz I have Frontline+ on my neck and so does Penny . There are no fleas here or on us. If the salmon doesn't help, we are gonna try switchin' food.
Well, hopefully the salmon stuff works cuz it is really, really YUMMY! = ) Woofs to ya later! - Zelda

I'm a zebra!


October 1st 2006 8:28 pm   [link to this entry]

Momma didn't have time to help me write yesterday, so I'll tell you this today. Ratty's mom turned me into a zebra for the safari! The safari is over now, but maybe start again later! I am so happy to have such nice friends like Ratty and his momma! - Zelda

A Trip to the Doctor


September 23rd 2006 11:24 pm   [link to this entry]

Today I went back to the doctor and got my 3rd and finally puppy shot! I didn't even cry or wiggle! There were lots of huge doggies there! I wasn't even scared of them! I wanted to play but it seems like none of them wanted to. One big Mastiff doggie was afraid of ME! I finally found a doggie that wanted to play with me but after a minute , Momma made us stop. She said we were starting a riot.( whatever that is...) So, now I am all done with my puppy shots ! - Zelda

I'm the Baby!


September 20th 2006 9:36 pm   [link to this entry]

I have only been in my new family for 2 months. I am 4 months old tomorrow. My momma and daddy brought me home so my sister Penny could have someone to play with and to love. You see, Penny lost her big sister Daisy, and her husband Rooty , just 5 weeks apart this past summer and she was very sad and lonely. I have lots of fun playing with Penny and she is teaching me how to be a good girl. She is helping me learn not to chew on the wrong things and how to go potty outside. Going potty outside makes my momma very happy, but sometimes it's just too cold and wet out there so I sneak upstairs and go in the hallway. This makes my momma mad so I will have to try harder to remember to go outside.
Some of the things I like are Penny and Penny's food. I love our kitty friend, Rosie. She is big and soft and she is lots of fun to play with. I love greenies and cookies. I love my plush tweeting bird and my nylabone. I really love my momma alot. I like to sleep under the covers with her and Penny.
Some of the things I don't like are rain and big scarey dogs. I like men, but at first I am a little bit afraid of them. They sound loud and scarey, not like my momma. I can't think of too many other things that I don't like. I am pretty happy and excited most of the time except when I have to go to the doctor and get a shot. Ouch! Those hurt! Oh! I forgot to tell you that I love rocks, too! I'm even in a group called "I love rocks!"
I am having lots of fun on Dogster. Penny and I are making lots of new friends. That's about it about me. I will write again soon! Zelda
