Happy Collieween

Lady and I wanted to wish you all a safe and howling good time but stay away from the candy, it will make you ill and then you will have to go see the doctors.  Love Gracie

Panama City with mom

Mom and I came down to Panama City Friday afternoon to have a mini vacation as a celebration for mom retiring from the Air Force.  I went to the bay today and was a little freaked out.  It was my first time walking on a a path of boards and seeing huge floating things in the water.  Mom kept assuring me it was safe to walk on the boards which she called a board walk and that the huge floating things were called fishing boats.  She said I had better get use to seeing those things because I am going to Key west with her on her next trip down.

Mom and Grandma are worried about Lady too.  The vet told mom that lady has lost to much weight and muscle mass in her hind legs.  I have to stop eating her food now.  Lady is on a rice, ground beef and gravy diet now and I am still stuck eating dog food.  That's ok because they can't keep me from her food all the time :0

Anyway, here is a picture for you Deacon, hope you like it.

Lady Update II

Hey all, sorry no pictures but my human paw is coming tomorrow to fix my computer so I can attach pictures.  Until then, I wanted to let everyone know I am doing good.  I sleep a lot and I am in a lot of pain but I make sure mom knows I am not ready to meet up with Lady II.

A few weeks ago my human mom noticed I was walking funny, funnier than I do with stiff legs.  She noticed my claws needed trimming and she can't do it - the big wuss - so she took me to the vet for them to do it.  Anyway, that is when the smart vet noticed one of my claws had grown to the side and inward and...ding ding ding...we had a winner!  I have to go back this week so they can trim more.  They couldn't get it all in one shot.

Before I sign off, Gracie and I wanted to wish our dear friend Essex (who is lucky to live in the Keys still) a belated Happy Barkday.  I remember my 10th barkday, I felt so young.

Today is our Human Mom's barkday and Gracie was nice enough to leave her gift on the carpet this morning.  Gracie is such a butt sniffer, she is always leaving mom gifts.  Mom says she is 29 years old for the 12th time.  To me, that adds up to OLD!

Good night all, can't wait to see everyone dressed up for Collieween!
