But to start off befowe I talk about all the happenins of the long weekend I had a bit of a scare on Thursday.
While my mom and dad were away all day ( work, school ... all that stuff I DONT DO lol... ) I was home playing with my sissster and cuzinsss...
I cant remember what I was doing, pwolly diggin, but I got BiT. I mean it was weal weal bad. I tried to tell grandma but she just thought I was droollliiing. I was but I was starting to feel icky. Iwas sore and scawwed and wanting my mommy and daddy.
Something bit meee on my front left paw. pwolly an ant (fire ants are badddd) or a spider because my paw was sore toooo.
Just as I was getting grandma's attention mommy and daddy came home!!!!! woooohooo... They came downstairs to their room and i ran so fast I almost broke the sound barrier and then slid into a sitting position better than any baseball player trying to steal a base.
( hey yankees!!! you here that!!! start the bidding, Ill win ya a few world series!!!!!!!)
I was drooling so badd it was hanging from my mouth almost to the ground on both sides....... My throat hurt so bad i couldnt even whine.... expect for when mommy wiped the drool off she put pressue on my mouth and I yelped SOOOOO LOUD!!!! Now she KNEW.... Im not doing so good. My mouth was sooooo swollen it looked like a balloon.
Daddy went and got grandma from outside... WE were all scared, But grandma new what to do..... Benadryl!!!!!!!!.... mmmmmmm CHerry Benedryl.... soooooooo goooood..... yummy yummy.
well... I started to feel sleepy but better. Daddy got out the stethascope and made sure I was breathing ok and my heart rate was good... Both got a check for being good. I was so happy that my mommy and daddy were taking care of me..... and my sister and cuzns wanted to see meeee but I was not having it, I had to snap at Lucy, so daddy layed next to me to keep them away and comfort me.... (( JUST LIKE I PLANNED!!!!)))
Then I really started feeling better only a few hourse later, although it felt FOREVER.... i was able to yawn and lick my paws and give daddy a kiss.
Heres some photos about an hour after the benadryl.
I woke up the next mowning and was able to eat and run and play. I was so happy that it was just a critter bite.
I was almost back to normal.... more cherry benadryl to make sure it all goes away, a few treats and I was happier than ever. sometimes it payys to get bit by a critter especiallwwwy when there are 5 dogs in the house.... I became #1.
Now to take a second to talk about one of my fears that im trying to overcome....
KIDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am scarrwrwrwrwrwed to death of kids. My daddy thinks its because before they got me, kids were baadd to me. plus my Vet found a BB ( yess like those metal balls that come out of bb guns that almost every kids has) in my neck....
Not to mention.... I am a little Skiddish.... again possibly from treatment bfore mommy and daddy got me.... I AM GETTING BETTER THOUGH!!!!!.
back to the fear.. and... this weekend. Mommies' niece Shelby, came to visit... She is 3. Even gingerbread doesnt like her, yet Shelby is always trying to hold her... better her than me!!!!!
I dont like it when she jumps around me. IT SCARES ME.... but daddy corrected her and help me and her like each other. Daddy taught her howw to correctly pet me and be nice.
After the weekend Shelby and I were getting better at being with each other. She won me over when she started rubbing my belly ( my sweetspot is my downfall )
You can see my freshly healled scar on my belly too.. thats a story for another day!!!!
take care my furriends!!!
Nevaeh.
