I George - Alas My Poor Life

I've had a ruff week.
I've had to get a BATH:-(
Seth put me in mom's shower and then hosed me down...If that wasn't bad enough, he poured soap on me...it smelled like coconut (not stinky at all;-(

I don't care for the fluffy look!

But now, at least I'm dry!

Then on Thursday night I started coughing really hard. Mom said that I sounded like I had The Croup. I didn't know what that was, but it sounded like poop - so I thought "that's a good thing". But apparently not...cause I had to go to the vets office on Friday.
Now don't get me wrong - I like going to the vets.
They are always really nice to me, and there is LOTS of good stuff to sniff...
...but mom looked so worried.
I got poked and prodded and ex-rayed.
Dr. Danezac said the good news, was that I didn't have peemonia.
The bad news, is that 1/2 of my trachea has collapsed.
Now, I'm not supposed to get hot or excited...
... and I have to take more pills ...
...and I have to go on another D*I*E*T.
I got a new bag of food and some cans of food too.
Mom started me on it last night, and I must say that the stuff tasted pretty good
BUT
I heard her say that she's starting me on green beans tonight.
What the heck did I do to deserve that?

It's soooooooooooooo hot here that the vet said that
I can only go outside to potty really early in the morning...
... like before the sun is up (and darn it - I like to sleep in)...
... and then way after it gets dark in the evening.
And I can't play around and sniff stuff - I just have to go out and get it done real quick.
The rest of the time I have to use my litter box!

Well enough about me...
...get your cameras out!

A Woofable Giveaway


Our Mom just found out about a great giveaway over at Red Pine Mountain.

Mountain Woman has 4 - yes 4 - Kiva $25 Gift Certificates up for grabs.

Kiva.org is a site devoted to helping people out of poverty by loaning them money. Now, we are not talking about great sums of money; just a minimum of $25.00 and then that money is pooled together with other Kiva members to make a more substantial loan. You can browse through profiles of people who have requested help, learn about their endeavors and then decide who you would like to assist. You can also click on the Community tab and find a team that you like. We would suggest the Animal Lovers Team! You can check out Kiva by clicking
