Oh No!!

Mom woke up and fed me and Grunt. Then we took a ride. Turns out mom took me to the vets office. OOOOhhhh NOooooo!! It wasn't Dr. Mounts day so I had Dr. Wiseman. Mom told them before we got into the room that I'm scared and to be quiet and no hands over the head. Sure enough the tech came in and there went Grunt. He sat and gave his paw in his usual hello greeting! :) Dr. Wiseman looked into my eyes and said, yup, there's an infection. She didn't see any scratches and said she didn't want to stain (WHAT??) my eye. That it would be alot for me to handle. Besides, she said, she would give mom the same medicine. We left with drops for me and Grunt got plenty of hugs so he's good! I weighed in at 66.7 pounds. Lost a couple of pounds! :):) Got home and dad closed our gates to the front yard. Yea!! We went and sniffed like crazy while mom and dad were rolling the fencing onto the trailer. Then mom AND dad got ready for work. Guess me and Grunt got the house tonight!! House party!! :):) Woooop Woooop!!

Eye Gunk! Gaaaaa!

Mom picked us up from the kennel and she noticed I had yellow gunk in the corner of one eye. Hmmmm. Well I've been home a couple of days now and they eye gunk is still there, nasty yellow! Mom said she's gonna take me to the vet. I did have fun at the kennel while mom and dad were on vacation. Nancy told mom that me and Grunt were playing hard. I was getting slammed into the fence and barking! Nancy's husband said, is that the dog that never barks? Sure enough I was the loud mouth! :):) Just about the entire ride home from the kennel I was standing looking out the window! Mom was thrilled! Mom and dad finished fencing the front of the yard to the playground and the back yard. We've got so much room to play and sniff in now! I'm all over the bushes, there are critters in there! Mom was weeding and I was chasing little birds! :) Bath tomorrow, mom put on our dose of flea/tick meds. Now if only I could get rid of the crust in my eyes!

I go out walkin!!!

Mom had to go to town, so after our walk she loaded me and Grunt up and away we went! She stopped at the post office and brought out a huge box. Then we went to the park at the lake. Mom said, come on guys! And we went for a walk around the lake! I sniffed 3/4 of the way! There is one section where you walk close to the road, cars scare the bejesus out of me, and I got nervous. Then at the bottom end of the lake there is a loud waterfall, don't like that either. But once we got back on the grass beyond the falls I was nose down sniffing all over again! We got back to the truck and I jumped right in smiling the whole time! Mom said she was soooo proud of me. I'm getting brave!

:):)

Happy Easter!

I'm not sure exactly what that means? But I saw a bunny the first thing in the morning. Guess he was heading home after delivering all the colorful eggs! :) Mom took us down a new entrance to the creek. It's really nice there! Mom pulled a yucky tick off of me when we got to the bottom of the trail. On the way back to the road mom saw this huge paw print in the snow. She said it was probably a fat bobcat!

We got a little bit of playtime in before we headed to the house. Mom trimmed my nails and Grunts nails now they're nice and short. Well shorter than they were! :) Now it's raining and miserable outside. Good thing I've got this big ol' house to chill out in!

Pictures - YUCK!

Well as you can see mom put some stupid bunny ears on me again! Geez! I don't like that! I think it's going to hurt me! Gaaa! Well, this time when mom put the stupid ears on me she had tons of treats. She gave me some and I took them!!!!! Mom was shocked!! Very happy, yet still shocked! Mom said the pics didn't come out good at all, BUT, it was the fact that I took treats while she to pictures of me AND I looked at the camera and it didn't hurt me! Woooohooo!! :):)

Whew!

It's been busy around here - well for mom it has! She's been on the phone like ALL the time! She was on the phone for hours yesterday and FINALLY took us for a walk. We didn't get to play in the playground - snow and ice. So we got back home and mom got back on the phone! What gives?

Then today mom got up early to take the trash out, we all went outside to potty. Then mom came back in the house and crawled back into bed! Hmmpf! I was ready to lay on the bed! We all fell back to sleep for another hour and then mom got fijity. Mom took her shower and me and Grunt waited patiently for mom. We figured she would be on the phone again. Well mom said, lets go! And took us for a walk. Came home, fed us and then mom went to the basement to look for some papers. She found some of them sat at the table for a while and then said, lets go play! So she took us outside to the playground. No those of us true dog lovers know moms can tell how us pups are by our poo. It's a gift! Well I didn't take 1 poo I too 2! Got the zoomies and had a good run! Grunt played chuck-it forever and mom finally said, let's go.

We got back in the house and mom started to set up the walk-in shower. Uh oh! Bath time! Gaaa!! Runnnnnn!!! Well I went first, got all sudsy and then rinsed. Mom gave me a great massage when she towel dried me! Then it was Grunts turn. He got his bath and got the zoomies! Mom said she had enough time to eat lunch and get ready for work. The papers are still on the table. Then the phone rang - dang! Turns out it was dad calling mom to let her know the prison was on lockdown. Mom loves lockdown! There was a fight last night when mom was on duty and a big fight (4 on 1) today. So the Warden locked down the prison. Mom has a feeling it won't be all night. But that's alright.

So mom only used the phone once today - and it was dad... whew

One more time!

Mom told me and Grunt to enjoy the sunshine. Looks like another big storm is heading our way! Geez! All of our friends in FL and TX keep letting us know that it's warm and sunny there right now. It's all good by me. As long as I've got my choice of what bed to lay on depending on where the sun is I'm great!! :)

Aaaahhhh the verps!

Mom got us from the kennel. I was so stressed when we got home. I kept verping. I regurgitate some food and one time I even puked water and food. Mom told dad, don't look at me and that they both have to ignore me. Then the neighbor came over. He's really tall and scares me bad. Well I stood on one side of mom and Grunt stood on the other. Grunt doesn't trust him at all. I was super nervous because of Grunts distrust.

Well I went to my room around 9pm and didn't come out until the morning when mom got up. She only gave me a little scoop of wet food and a pepto. My belly settled down and I ate breakfast this morning. Mom took us for walk, I was fine. Even played in the playground. Went in the house and sat with mom on the sofa. Mom put a new pillow in my crate, she calls it an orthopaedic bed. I'm not sure of the feel so I lay on the sofa with mom.

Dad is still ignoring me, that's good. I'm still a bit stressed, but mom said I'll calm down in a day or so....

Stressed out bad

Mom and dad took Grunt to his class. Turns out he passed it. But mom didn't stay home for long. She left. Said she was going to Grandma's an Grandpas house. Well I stressed out bad! That first night I slept on dad's bed with Grunt and dad. I have never done that before. Then I barfed a few times. I do this verp thing when I get overly excited. I didn't eat my breakfast or dinner. But I did take my pills in the cheese and crackers that dad made. Mom had dad give me crackers with a pepto pill in it. My tummy did feel better and I ate my dinner after dad went to sleep. The next day I didn't eat breakfast. But did go for a walk with Grunt and dad. Dad even took us to the playground for a bit! So I got to run some stress off. Came in the houseand ate a bit of breakfast. Then it happened. Mom came home! Yippeeee!!! I barked at her and gave her what for!! She apologized for leaving so quickly and said she wouldn't do it again.

Then today, after we ate, then took a really long walk, then played mom gave me a bath! What?!! I was pretty happy though, I needed one. Then mom got down our containers - yippeee!! Those containers mean that we're going to the kennel! I love, love, LOVE the kennel! I get to meet all kinds of dog friends!

Still Concerned..

Mom took us for a walk, we went in a new direction. It was exciting. Mom was walking like an old lady. Her limp was so bad! So we didn't walk along too fast. She kept apologizing to us... duh, we're outside we're happy!

Then we went to the playground. I ran like a loon... It felt great! Grunt and I played a few times then he was trying to get mom to throw the chuck-it ball. Mom said, no way there is about 4 inches of snow on the ground. So she headed towards the gate. We met her at the gate and she walked us around to the door. Once inside mom said, how about some breakfast. Well, uh, alright... uh... I guess... uh... I'm still a bit concerned about what's going on. Well mom made our breakfast and sat real still in the living room for me. My food/water bowls are in my bedroom (yes I have my OWN room!). I came out several times, but was eating inbetween. So I'm still concerned but at least I ate my breakfast! :):)
