Best Tricks: Barking at the buggies on the ceiling
Arrival Story: Izzy was abandoned and passed from home to home in a pretty rough section of town for the first six or seven months of her life. My mother-in-law was talking to a woman in line at PetSmart who told her she had Izzy but couldn't keep her, and so my mother-in-law, who already had a rescue of her own, told us about her. We can only imagine what happened to Izzy before she came to live with us as she is still very neurotic and suffers from separation anxiety, no matter what we have done in 11 years, although getting her brother Ernie six years ago, does seem to have helped some.
Bio: Everyone who meets Izzy wants to take her home with them because she is so loving and sweet. She is exceedingly gentle, and mellow, and would be content to follow you from room to room and sit at your side for the rest of time. She is happy as long as she's with her people. One time when Izzy was a puppy, she got so upset when her Dad left her alone in the truck while he went into the Home Depot, that she chewed the latch off the window in the back of the cab, slid the window open, jumped through it, out of the truck bed, ran through the automatic glass doors and went flying up and down the aisles until she found her Dad in the back of the store.

Second Bananas Unite!: Founded August 2008. Me & Elsie Bella Puddin' Pie decided to take matters into our own hands. No more standing in Ernie's shadow!
Today is Fill the Feeders Day! Mama don't has to go to work so we get up early and fill the birdie feeders with peanuts and peanut butters for the pecker logs, and thistles for the little finchies.
It are a fambly tradishun.
Well this morning, Mama were finally gonna put out the elebenty ton, solid like a rock, "Critter Block" that comes shrinkie wrapped in plastic with an "easy carry" handle. The Critter Block tempoorarily distracts the squirrels and chipmonks and coonies from the pecker log and othfur dellercasees so the birdies can eats.
Anyfur, Mama were loaded down with peanut butter plugs, the scissors, the elebenty ton critter block trying to open the door, while dressed in her sock monkey jammers that she rooteenerly embearassers us with by wearing out in the yard. Ernie & I were hot on her heels, and she were trying to get the door open with her heinie, when the ginormous, solid-like-a-rock, with easy carry handle critter block swung back, gaining big Mac truck momentum, and hit our poor Mama square, right in her crotchal regions!
OMD! She dropped like a rock. Has you evfur seeneded a baseball player take a shot in them's babymaker with a wild pitch? Mom says now her knowed how them feels.
Mama howled. Don't tell Mama, but me & Ernie thought it were heelarryus. We laffed and laffed. Ernie whispered "Mama on injured reserves with groins injury!" OMD.
That are what she get for feeding the squirrels and coonies!
Izzy gotta run. Mama needs her an ice pack! Happy Saturday, pals!

My wonderfur furriend Romeo was checking in on me today, so I thought I should post the pupdate I sended to him, for all my furriends to read cause you all has been so thoughtfur, worrying about me and all.
Here it is:
Dad felt so bad Friday night. He furgot to pick up my liver food. He's a bigger baby than Mom when it comes to his Izzy girl, and he musta been upset about lotsa stuff on Friday, cause Mom called him just as he was going out the door in the a.m., and he said he would go pick it up, but then he came home without it Friday night. I will get it today.
I still got my Sunday morning egg from Dad, evfun though Mom said no. He said it was just one egg with a couple little potato chunks split between the two of us, me & Ernie G. Dad also refooses to give me my Benadryl because he says drugs aren't good for my liver. Appawrently Dad got his Veterinary Degree when Mom wasn't looking.
I am taking the medicine the dogtor gave me though. We are going to wait and get my liver retested in a couple weeks, unless my symptoms act up again. I have been coughing a bit when I eat, but have not thrown up since a week ago Sunday.
Mom is not sure now whether I have always been so sleepy and old looking, but she and Dad are always staring at me and watching me and petting me and loving me. It are making me nerfuss. I feel like I'm on death watch or something. But I've just been my ooosooooall mellow Izzy self, sleepy, groany. Dad's been saying for years that I groan a lot. And I haven't cut back on my barking at peepoles who comes to the door neithfur!
Anyhowl, thanks for checking in on me. I sure appreciates it a lot!
