Dang dog !

[Ashlar2006]

The wife had me take our little rescue dog to the groomers for a spa day . So i take her and when I pick her up , they tell me I need to take a look at her ears , so I do , and lo and behold she has an ear infection (great catch on their part because I grew a little lax in checking their ears as often as I should should) .

So on the way home I have to pop in the vet to get her ears checked out , and not only does she have an ear infection , but an upper respiratory infection . What was going to be a $28 dollar wash and trim , turned into dropping $100 bill yesterday .

What we do for our pets !

I 'beloved' younger cat decided that he would launch himself from my left eye and my wife's right cheek. She has scratches, I have a laceration of my eye. $25 co-pay at the MD, then $58 co-pay at the pharmacy for antibiotic eye drops.

Our 14 year old Cocker Spaniel has had a growth on her side for the last year, steadily growing, until it was about as big as a nerf football. Vet decided that it was time we had to do something. Either put her down ($100) or major surgery ($600). We decided to put her down (with my wife bawling). Mother in law, bless her heart, would have nothing to do with that decision and VETO'd it. I knew mother-in-laws held special powers, but didn't know until now that they actually carried a Veto stamp. Good news is, she also wrote the check! God bless her.

If the veto stamp comes with a checkbook, you're all good.

Speaking of dang dogs..... mine just might put a halt to Vegas get away with the better half...... we had a werewolf sitter lined up but then they realized it is spring break and will be gone too..... I said fill a big bowl full of werewolf chow and leave access to the toilet for her to get something to drink..... we will only be gone for three days......the dogs old enough to stay by herself RIGHT???

Now it was my turn to laugh , "Werewolf Sitter" , now that is just priceless . I am going to have to steal that from you !!!!

She is just under 8 inches tall....and less than ten pounds of pure holy terror.....in her eyes, shes a pissed off bull mastiff ....it is funny to watch.....

She is really a good dog...... she just has no concept that shes a tiny thing.....

Oh, yeah, she's old enough to stay by herself. As long as you're old enough to deal with the damage caused by an unhappy and lonesome dog.

Fireman , you could always kennel her for a few days . My vet has a kennel service , they take each dog kenneled out to play several times a day , feed and water of course and will even groom them too (costs extra , but you come home to a fine smelling werewolf ) . If it is just two or three day trip that just may be your ticket .

Rosie, my 12 pound miniature Dachshund is like that.
There were two 75 or 80 pound huskies who lived in the fenced patio of an apartment near where my daughter used to live. Rosie was always straining at the leash to get at them and always told them a thing or two!

Wow, 400 posts! I'll probably be running out of words soon.

Had one or three minatures like that.

Bob, as for running out of words, you can re-sue some of them over and over...
