Doggy Days

pet insurance

Yeah, mommy just got approved for my insurance. Now i don't have to worry about spending so much money on my visits. They excluded certain things like my crystals but that's taken care of anyways so i should be fine. Whew, haven't written for so long.
Mommy had a baby in July. My brother's name is Tyler. He's fat! I didn't like him at first because mommy used to feed him in her lap on the chair in the baby room and that used to be MY place to sit. So i would make mommy hold me AND tyler. I wasn't jealous of HIM, i just wanted to sit in mommy's lap. Now i'm fine because mommy feeds him in her room on the bed and i just sit next to her there. I don't even want her lap anymore, i just want to be near HER.
I get mad when tyler kicks me though. In the beginning when tyler didn't sleep through the night, mommy put him in the bed while i was sleeping. Since i'm under the covers and so is tyler, he wants to wake up and play while I'M sleeping so he starts kicking. Only thing is, i'm right by his feet. I have to wake up and move to another spot because of him. So mad i have to growl.
I like him though. I like to lick his hands and feet. His toes are my favorite.

crystals

I went to get an ultrasound yesterday. My mommy took a pee-pee sample to the vet and they said i had crystals in my urine. To be sure i didn't have stones, i had to do the ultrasound. Mommy and daddy took me in yesterday morning and i didn't get to come hom until about 6 pm. The vet's office told mommy that i was VERY good. I was shaking a lot and i was scared, that's why i didn't growl or bark at them like i do mommy and daddy. Strangers scare me. They shaved all of my belly fur and even up my sides too. I also had the ultrasound goo stuck on my fur. Mommy and daddy tried to wipe it off but it wouldn't come off. So i had to go to the groomers today. They gave me a cute bandana around my neck. Mommy said i looked like a cute "cow-dog". If only i had a cow-dog hat to go with it.
I have to go on a new diet. The vet said i have to eat it for a whole month then get my urine retested. The food gave me the runs. Mommy was cleaning it up and called it pureed spinach since it was bright green. It has to be the food because i'm not allowed anything else except that. Not even my TREATS!! Life is going to be boring for the next month.

smelly butt

My buttocks was emitting a funky odor. Mommy thought i may have gotten some poo stuck on my hairs that she couldn't see. She decided to snip some of the hairs off my bottom. She had to hold me while daddy tried to trim my hairs. Daddy was so slow and mommy got impatient. Also the fact that daddy can't cut hair for his life. Daddy decided to use his shaver but with the beard attachment. Mommy was telling daddy to be careful and that's when it happened....daddy nicks my bottom. I didn't really feel it but mommy got mad at daddy for giving me a cut when she told him to be careful. Now i have to walk around with butchered hair on my bum and a tiny cut on it too. Auntie shirley was laughing when i walked away because the hairs on my bottom looked like a 3 year old cut it.
Tomorrow i will be taken to a professional groomer. After auntie shirley laughing at me, mommy couldn't bare to have the family see my booty on saturday night's xmas dinner. I will be bathed, trimmed and cleaned. The lady better not be mean to me. I'll growl and bite to scare her!
