Thank you Daisy & Josey . Mom probably should have called the vet back that evening, but didn't. And he didn't work the next day. So she didn't call. And since then mom has just been keeping an eye on things. I guess we know her health is delicate now and we're just going to protect her and keep her as healthy and comfortable as we can ... and hope that is for a long time. The vet said again this time that he wouldn't be surprised to see her again in a year. He also said that she looked better this time than the last follow up she had after the initial tumor diagnosis. So fingers , but prayers and good thoughts never hurt.

Pippi, that's a good report on Cheeky! I'd hate to think the dogtor gave her those bruisies, though. I hope she doesn't have to see him again fur a year!
We had sunshine all day today! It was breezy and not too warm, 66*, but daddy was home to take me fur a coupla walks. I call that a good day!
Daisy & Josey, what I was gonna bark the other day was that I'm about Rex Mi Amor, I remember him. Demon Flash Bandit has also gone to the Bridge. t0446

Hooray for the good health report, Cheeky!
I wish we all could have some nice, not-too-foggy seasonal weather. We are getting back close to 90 this week. What may save us is the shortening days.
Hope WO's Mommy comes back with some great stories to tell!

Pippi we are glad to hear Cheeky had a good report and pray things keep going good. We can't wait for WO to report in to so anxious to hear all about her weekend away Mommy wishes the nursing center daddy was had someone to come in once a week to cut hair and shave when she signed paperwork they did and she said she wanted daddy to get it done but they told her when she kept asking that the person who used to come in quit and they are trying to find someone to come in free fat chance on that. So he was there since April 1 and September he definitely needed a hair cut. Well everyone have a great Monday

I'm sorry to hear about Rex Mi Amor. I remember him. I don't think I remember Demon Flash Bandit. t0446 Run free and healthy and happy at the Rainbow Bridge, sweet pups. Cheeky, glad to hear the good report. Yes, it sounds like the vet just bruised you when he was poking. Glad you healed up! AJ & Tori, H&W, T & G, P & M, and Everyfur!

Angels Hershey & Winkie we don't really know what caused Cheeky's heart tumor to cause the bleeding into the sack around her lungs a couple of months ago, and we can only guess the vet poking around may have caused this bruising. We suspect it may not take much at all right now to cause blood to leak out. Heck, it may have even been the hot car when they came back out from the vets. Mom has not been taking Cheeky out this summer because she seems to breathe hard pretty quickly and takes longer to get back to normal afterward. So mom has been keeping her cooler inside. I think Cheeky is just fragile right now. I don't think the vet was rough with her, just that she is more delicate now. Your weather still sounds wonderful! UsurpingToby we are back into the 90s here and they are saying we may set some record highs this week. Ugh. I sure hope fall decides to show up soon. Sigh. I'm so sorry to hear about Demon Flash Bandit as well. Don't think I knew him or Rex Mi Amor, but our heart goes out to their families. DALLAS we are with your mom - fat chance on getting someone to come in free. The lady that came in where pawpaw was at was not free, but she was not expensive either. I can't remember the cost, but I remember we were all thinking it was no more than you would pay going somewhere else, but had the convenience of staying right there. Maybe the man who came in for daddy can pick up some other clients while he is there at the nursing home. Nothing too exciting going on here. Mom has done a little work in the yard and now working on laundry. I'm hoping play time is coming soon. That or maybe she can read to us. She needs to pick a new author. Everything she wants to check out seems to be not available for a while. Hope everyone has a great day.

Angels Hershey & Winkie we didn't realize Demon Flash Bandit was at the Rainbow Bridge . DALLAS Hope someone will go to the nursing home soon to help with things. This morning there was a butterfly enjoying a sunflower by our fence!

Such a pretty sunflower! The butterflies around here seem suicidal. They keep smacking into people's faces.

Hmm UsurpingToby into people's faces? I thought you were going to say into their cars or something. That is a pretty sunflower Daisy & Josey . I'll bet the birds will enjoy that this winter.

When the card reader comes, Mom will be able to show y'all the sunflower head she took pictures of. These are the 12' tall flowers, so each head is 12"+ across. Amazing!
Pippi, Mom doesn't want butterflies flying across her mouth like in those Hannibal Lechter movie ads.

We used to do group dog walks at a park that had a huge sunflower field every year. It was a beautiful sight with the field of sunflowers and a lovely old barn behind it. It used to be a park owned by the family that used to live on the farm and they eventually turned it over to the state and it became a state park. The first thing the state did was to get rid of the sunflower field to make a larger parking lot. It was . And we had never seen the old parking lot full. So we never understood why they did that. Especially since this one is "marketed" as a birding park. You would think they could realize the birds liked the big sunflower field, and I'm sure the birds get nothing out of the parking lot. Sigh.

Today was a funny day. Daddy left like always, only later. Mommy didn't do laundry. Then daddy came home and then we all got to ride in the car and THEN we went fur a walk by the ocean! Daddy and I even climbed 2 billion stairs and went up to the high place where you can see the WHOLE WORLD. Mommy stayed down on the earth. Mommy doesn't do stairs by the billions. Then we all went to the place where they sell messy smelly meatz and things mommy and daddy like to eat. Don't even ask if I got any. But it was fun to have an extra day with my daddy!
Daisy & Josey, that is a bootifur flower! One of our neighbors across the back lawn have sunnies growing. They are tall!!
Pippi, mommy says don't even get her started on state parks. I'm not even allowed in ours, except on paved parts, and on a leash. That is furry how they paved paradise and put up a parking lot. (hmmmm, what does that remind me of? )

Pippi, with your city, I am not surprised.
Hershey, I do seem to recall a song that went something like that...
What an incredible day you had! All the way to the top of the world. You have strong knees to manage that many stairs. Mom made me walk to the bank with her, and I threw several temper tantrums. (I don't like going anywhere without my Security Geordie.) You are a brave companion for your humans!
