The Adventures of Sophie Grindle

Close Call

I recently became ill, which worried my mommy very much! I lost a total of 1.3 lbs (when I was healthy I was 8.5, but dropped to 7.2), and I got very lazy, and did not feel like eating or drinking. My mom took me to the Mohnacky Animal Hospital in Carlsbad, CA where they got right to business with me! I received great attention from the doctors and nurses, and this made my stressful experience pleasant. I had to be hospitalized overnight, which was bad because I missed mom and dad. but in the morning after a special diet of wet food and IV drips I felt bright and lively again! I got to go home that evening, and I have been doing good ever since. Pray that I stay well!

No bones about it,

Holidays and Family

Hey There!
I've been thinking alot about this year's christmas. I have no clue what my parents are going to do. While going through hard times before the holiday isn't "ruff" enough, I don't even know if we will travel back to Maine for the holidays! I wouldn't mind going back, considering I can get through the plane ride I would get to experience snow (which would be awesome!) , open presents with aunt Ruby, snuggle with aunt Ruby by the fireplace, go visit my cousins Tia Marie, Baxter and Kiwi amd just be with family. Staying home wouldn't be bad either, just me and my Mom and Dad. I'm torn on what I want.
Anyways, I also can't wait to go christmas shopping! I have a few "tricks" up my sleeve and I think it will be just perfect! To all those reading, I hope your upcoming holidays are bundles of fun and Happy Holidays to all!

Doggy Day Camp

Hello folks,

Well, I had my first expierence with Doggy Day Camp today while my parents were out and about in Rancho Cucamonga, California. They dropped me off, which at first I wasn't too happy about..but then it got better from there! I got fed, which is one of the best things and not to mention the group play session. At first I was a little shy, I mean..all these unfamiliar dogs, I don't know them! But I got over myself and stared playing and I actually had fun and made a few new friends! Then I got to go on a walk which was great. Before I knew it, Mom and Dad were picking me up. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed my stay at the PetHotel in PetSmart, but nothing beats going back to Mom and Dad!
I walked away from the expierence with a few new friends, a little relaxation time, and a sense for a new place. The best part of my big day was driving back to Oceanside, California in my Mom's lap sleeping!

Lots of Love,
