Poop

We went for a walkie the other day and it always strikes me how much poop these dogs make.  I mean seriously, in a thirty minute walk I walk away with this:

There are 6 poops in that bag.  SIX!  Four of those poops were made by Scruffy, the small one.  Four poops!  One or two of them were like Hershey Kisses but still.  Mr. Fox had a biggie and a Hershey Kiss which seems more normal.  By the way, for each new poop I use a new bag (obviously) and then stuff it into the first poop bag, making one big poop bag.  So there are five bags in that one.

How much poop do you guys make on a walkie?

PS.
This is how I typed this post, with my lovies.

Not the Flu

Last week I had the Non Flu.  That's right.  I was sick and home from work for a whole week but it wasn't the flu.  I never stay home from work that long so it was baaad.  I got the cold and worked for a week with that.  Then came the body aches but the urgent care swabbed my nose with a giant q-tip and it said I didn't have the flu.  Just a virus.  I spent my week on the couch like this...

I love being loved unconditionally.

Dogter

Hmmm.... I don't know about this

A couple weeks ago I took Ms. Scruffy to the dogter.  Time for a check up...  I was very happy because the last time I took her she began trembling the minute we walked in the door.  She didn't tremble this time at all even though she was not thrilled to be there.

She didn't like getting her temp taken and hugged me the whole time.  Scruffy weighs 12.5 pounds!  I feel like such a proud Italian mama, I fattened her up from a measly 8.8 lbs. Then we waited for the dogter.

C'mon!  Let's go home!  Now!

What is going on out there?  

When the dogter came, Scruffy was not going for the teeth exam so I pulled up her lips and then it was time for more examining and Scruffy jumped into my arms.  Poor little girl.  She did ok though and then it was time for the shots and nail clipping in the back.  She didn't want to go but came back with nice trimmed nails and her shots. 

We are going again this week with Mr. Fox and Scruffy's getting a booster for Lepto.  Oh boy, me and two dogs at the vet!
