A short but fun adventure with Mom!!!!
July 31, 2011Izzy reporting in this morning. I am sure loving life these days. Mom took me for a walk bright and early this morning, 6:30, I have a feeling Mom’s Mom had something to do with it. I was wide awake, but Mom, well not really. Good thing I was there to guide her. Woof.
Mom and Dad let me tend to the house during the day, so when they returned I was all set to go out for another walk. Mom and I went to an outside concert together. I saw many people and of course was given lots of attention. Mom said I was a real good girl. I would sit for a bit, then make my rounds to my family members, then come back to Mom and lay down for a bit, then I would start the cycle all over again. Here I am laying down.
Oh boy we had a good walk!!!!
July 28, 2011Izzy reporting in, after dinner Mom and Dad took Missy, Hank and I for nice walk. I walked Dad, Hank and Missy walked Mom. The thing about my brother and sister joining us on the walk is they wander much more than I do. Every so often our leashes cross and we get in a mess. Mom and Dad straighten us out and away we go again.
My limping has subsided. Dad was noticing how well I am doing and is very proud of me. I know I will still get my x-rays in a few weeks, but I will still continue to heal. Mom and I will continue to walk and hopefully swim.
Until next time,

Ok Ok, I have the scoop!!!!
July 26, 2011This evening, Mom and I went to the local community library for a visit. You see Mom’s Mom volunteers there during the summer months. Oh it was so good to go there, I have not been there since the leaves were falling on the ground and Ted had 4 legs.
While we were at the library I heard Mom’s Mom ask Mom how school was. Soooo, must be Mom is going to her work place to get ready for the school year. Boy, she sure does work hard for those kids. I hope they appreciate all the hard work she and all the other teachers do.
After the library, we stopped at the ice cream shop to visit with some friends. Of course I was the center of attention and one man even had a cookie for me. Yummy, I sure enjoyed that. Mom was asked about Ted. She was very brave and told his story without any tears. I am so proud of her. Each time she tells the story, I get more attention from the people. They all say that I will be a very spoiled young lady. What can I say other than, “Woof, Woof, Woof, Woof!!!!”
So, now the mystery is solved!!!! I know she would take me if she could. She even said so. I will continue to do my job and keep the house in order and wait for her to come home.
Until next time,

Oh where does Mom go????
July 26, 2011Since the weekend, Mom has been leaving the house for like ever. She looks at me like, “I am sorry Izzy, I wish I didn’t have to go.” But where ever does she go? I just want to know. Each day she comes home and gives me a great big hug and kiss. I do forgive her for leaving me. I know it is my job to keep the house quiet and in order. It is a real good thing she keeps Hank and Missy in their little houses. I just know they would make a mess of the house, toys all over and everything.
I still want to know where she goes and why I can’t go with her!!!!
Until next time,

Just have to get that, whatever it is!!!!
July 24, 2011Izzy here again. Mom and Dad have a nice area for me to play in. I exit the house from a door in the kitchen. I have concrete steps then lead to a wooden platform. I know there is something living under the platform, I just know it. First thing I do is check out the edges of the platform. Boy, whatever it is, it sure smells good. Mom took a picture of me sniffing out my suspect. Boy is this fun.
The day of my appointment!!!!
July 21, 20116:15 this morning, Mom had all of us up and out the door for our morning walk. It was already 80 degrees. We returned to our movable home and Dad was up too. Mom and Dad had a cup of black stuff, Missy, Hank and I had our clear stuff and some food. The news broadcast said that the temperature was going to reach 100 degrees, so we decided it was best to end this adventure and get ready for my appointment.
Off in Mom’s vehicle I go with Mom and Dad. We finally arrive and sure enough it is 100 degrees. Way too hot for my family. We went into the office to keep cool and greet all that wanted to be greeted. Finally we saw Dr. Robinson. He is really nice and gentle. He had me on my side moving my legs in all different directions, rolled me over and did the same thing. He was amazed at how relaxed I was. He said I had full range of motion and a very relaxed young lady. Dr. Robinson did not find anything wrong, he said I may be limping because I have an injury. You see, Ted was sometimes a bully to me in the yard. Even on 3 legs he would run into me with all his might. I could have injured some soft tissue and it just needed to heal. I am to continue my walks with Mom and even some light jogging. Mom asked about swimming and swimming would be great. He would like another set of x-rays in 3-4 weeks to compare the ones taken in May.
So, I am good as gold. I could have told them that, but somehow I just was not able to do that. When I saw the relief on my pawrent faces I was sooo very happy.
Until next time,
