Last night while playing with mommy I lost a tooth while chewing on mommy's hands. It was a tiny one that fell off from my upper front jaw on the right side. I had to sit still under a bright light while mommy examined my teeth. They think that's probably why I've been chewing my hind feet! Yes I've been chewing them lately until they're red and sore, I don't know why I just can't help it! Mommy is bringing me to a hollistic vet this week.
That's right, I have begun shedding my puppy fur for the last week. They say that it supposed to start at 6 months, I'm only turning 4 months now! It's coming off in patches, first it was small patches on my thighs, then my elbows, then my back and now my neck. I look like I have a rare skin disease. Mommy is a little sad to see my soft fuzzy fur go. I don't like getting brushed and will squirm and bite my way out of it however which way I can!
Tonight on my walk mommy took me to the sea wall down past the park. I wouldn't go down at first it looked scary with the water rushing to and from. Mommy tugged on my leash and I resisted until my furr was puckered. When I saw mommy go down it didn't look so bad after all, she said come come come and I followed down a couple of steps and discovered the wet sand and water, so this is where the sea shells come from, it's so salty mmmm! So many mussels for me to sink my teeth into I want to eat them all...yumm!
