So, I've slacked a bit...since my last post. But hey, what can I say? It's hard keeping up with my social calender and then reporting to all my friends and family about my where-abouts and doings. Mommy is exhausted trying to keep up with me, and I just don't understand why she doesn't quit that job she goes to...and focus on me...Me...ME. Aunt Ida is fun to snuggle with, and Grandmom is always giving me pets and gushy words. But Grandmom doesn't let me kiss her and I don't understand why. Aunt Ida likes to make me take naps, which I need because I'm still a growing puppy.
It seems like we go to the puppy doctor every week. They weigh me, and lately I've been getting shots in my butt too. I do not like the shots AT ALL. But Dr. Hamilton says it is to protect me from germs passed from puppy to puppy, raccoon pee, and just puppy stuff. They still hurt though and I cry. Actually when the needle goes in my butt, I stand still and don't say a word. It's when the needle comes out of my little tush that I whimper like the dickens. As of April 11th, I weighed 4.7 pounds. The doctor didn't say anything about me being a chub-o this time though...so bring on the treats! He is also keeping an eye of my itchies...as I still have them. They also checked out my poops again, and it appears that the coccidia is still in me. :o( So I am still on Albon to knock that icky parasite out of me once and for all. I finish my Albon treatment tomorrow, and we'll go through the waiting process again to see if it's gone. Dr. Hamilton also advised mommy to give me baby benadryll to help with the itchies...as my skin scraping keep coming up negative for demodex (skin parasite.) I think all these words are way too big for a puppy to take in, and understand. So I get this baby benadryll stuffs which is supposed to taste like cherries, but I think is DIS-GUST-ING! Mommy is to keep an eye on the scratching, and if it don't stop then I get some kind of dip. I wanted to know if it was a sour cream and onion dip, or more like a garden vegetable dip....but no one wanted to hear my question.
is soooooo many rules, and homeworks and stuff. What's up with that? I thought being a puppy is all about running and playing, and eating stuffs like dandelions (ummmm-ummm). But I started puppy kindergarten on April 12th, and they taught me dopey stuffs I already knew...like SIT. There are two other commands they want me to learn such as 'look' (where I have to focus on mom or whoever tells me) and also down (where I lay down.) LOOK is pretty easy, and I get treats constantly, so I like doing sit and look. But down is annoying me. I don't want to do 'down' and they're trying to make me. There are some nice puppies in my class...especially this Labradoodle named Allah. He's cute....and mom thinks his dad is cute too. There's also another puggle in the clas named Baily. But she's just a regular puggle....not a pocket puggle. I went back to puppy kindergarten yesterday, hoping to see Allah (ok, mommy really wanted to see his dad) but they weren't there. It was a small class, and the only other student I knew was Baily. They had us do the same commands again so mom don't know if I am going back next Saturday. I had a play date last Tuesday with Mojo.He's really nice! He shared his kibble and water with me....and we chased one another silly. I kept jumping in his bed and barking at him. All the grown-ups thought it was funny. Then I went to dance class and visited with the ladies there. Everyone professes their love of me. Today I get babysat by my two best uncles...Nelson & Peter. Mommy, Aunt Ida and grandmom are going to some family thing...and don't want to leave me home alone with the cats. I hear Pooka and Cro`i are having a rave at the house while we're all out...but don't tell our mom. I also promise to update my blog weekly, as I intended to. Just my nose gets tired from hitting all the keys on the keyboard. So until next time......go with my motto: ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE.
