Knocked OUT!

  What a week! soo soo tired. zzzZZZZZ!

  I got new toys! They SQUEAK!!!  Lady Kay went to Petco in WVC to get me some snacks since I can't be on my paw for a few days.  She was talking to the General Manager Micki and mentioned I was having a hard November.  Micki donated these squeaky toys for me to play with while I'm on bed rest. I like Petco where pets go and that was really cool of her to give me toys at no charge when Im not feeling well. When Im all better Im going to go see her and tell her thank you because I really do love my squeaky squeaks!

*Side note! I walked into Petco to find some snacks for Jake when Micki asked me if she could help me with anything. I told her I wasn't sure what I wanted but explained that in the last week 10 days Jake had a seizure, had  labs done and infected foot and is on antibiotics. She directed me towards some health treats and  said she wanted to buy him 2 toys of my choice. I picked out a small squeaky toy and she actually grabbed the bigger one and said, It's got 10 squeakers in it, he'll love it.  I was thinking of the cheapest ones and she grabbed a big one with no thought to cost. And threw in a couple extra treats.  It's people like her  that will make me a Petco Customer for life.  Well done Micki at the Petco in West Valley. Jake and I will be in soon to say thank you!

OWIES!!!

  I got an OWIE!  Was back at the Dr Today. My foot is infected where the toenail came up.  The doctor said they could sedate me and then pull the toenail off.  OR they could clean it up really well put some antibiotic on it, wrap it up for a few days, keep me off of it and then start to clip the toenail a little bit at a time. The last option would be the least expensive option also.  We went with the last option. They cleaned it, wrapped it put some antibiotic on it and then gave me some pain pills and other antibiotics to take for the next 2 weeks.  And put me on bed rest for the next 4 days. . BOOO!

I'm Having a RUFF November

    My Paw was getting better but I hurt it again. It was bleeding again this morning and it hurt for me to stand on.  I took another trip to see my vet, Dr Rick Whitty. I like Dr Whitty he's cool. No body expects to see a Dr with a Pony Tail and a Soul Patch. He works at SALT LAKE VETERINARY SERVICES.It was the 3rd time since Halloween. Im having a  RUFF November.  I like Dr Whitty he's cool. No body expects to see a Dr with a Pony Tail and a Soul Patch. He works at SALT LAKE VETERINARY SERVICES. I like it there because they're nice, and gentle and give me lots of love and treats! They also are very conscious about my Ladies' Pocket Book too!.      Turns out the toenail on my paw is infected :(  They cleaned it really well and it hurt. I cried. But they did too, so I know they didn't mean too.  They put some antibiotics on it and bandaged it up. Im supposed to stay off it for about 5 days.  FIVE DAYS!! That's going to be hard. But I got doggie cookies for being good.

*Side note: Dr Whitty and the folks at Salt Lake Veterinary Services are AMAZING!!!  Since this was the 3rd time in 10 days we've seen him he discounted today's visit. Very kind and thoughtful of them and the staff. People do that too much these days.  Dr Whitty and SLCVS just earned a customer for life

:( IM WOUNDED!

    That's a bandage on my poor little Paw! It was time for me to come out of my kennel for the day. I was so excited to see my Ladies that I caught my toenails on one of the metal bars. I yelped really loud and didn't walk on it for a few minutes. then it started bleeding really bad.  The ladies put some peroxide on it and put a bandage on it. OWIES :(

Im Scared!

  
Human's celebrate this thing called HALLOWEEN. I don't like it very much. It's got loud creepy noises and creepy things with creepy faces hanging around doors and trees.  I got sick today and my dinner came up :( So  I wasn't feeling well.    And then this awful horrible thing happened to me.  I had what they call a Seizure.  A grand mal seizure. It was really really scarey and I couldn't stop it.

A couple days later November 2nd  I went to my Vet. Ad Salt Lake Vet services. Dr Rick Whitty did a whole examination on me. They took some blood to see if maybe I ate something that's making me sick.  I weight 54 pounds so I grew since he saw me in June and gave me my vaccinations.  After they took my blood and my temperature I got to come home.  They called back and said everything looks fine except I may have some hypertension or  hypothyroidism It's hard to tell cuz I'm still a puppy. I'm only 15 months old so I'm still growing and my  body is still changing.  I went back to the vet to get my  blood pressure checked on November 5th. It's fine.  So they think I just got into something. I hope so. Cuz Seizures are SCAREY..  

The Simple Things In Life!

  One of the ladies took me to the dog park. I met a fun little tow year old pitt who brought coolest toy! It was a mountain bike tire her guy bought her at the D.I.  for  a buck. We played tug of war for over 30 minutes!! IT. WAS. AWESOME!!!! It's not so easy to find someone to tug o war with who can last as long as I can. Humans are funny! You spend lots and lost of money on toys for us that don't last... and sometimes all we want is a stick from the woods to chew and chase and a $1 mountain bike tire.
