So much to be THANKFUL for.....


I'm soooo thankful for all my doggie friends and their peeps that have been saying pawreyers for my Mr. He had a stroke 2 weeks ago and has recovered mostly from that. He's lost some vision and is still a little week on the right side. SHE got him a ball to play with but I'm not allowed to chew on it. He squeezes it a lot. She put a bucket of my toys where he can reach them so he can toss them for me. Some times he walks like he has a hitch in his giddy up. He did flunk some echo tests thingy in the hospital and they wanted to keep him and take him to another hospital, but he missed being home so much he checked himself out like it was some kinda hotel or something. SHE is not happy about that. His heart doc said now they hafta get him into another hospital after Thanksgiving to get a defib thingy installed. I guess that's so he won't tell fibs....dunno...whatever it is, it's something they gots to do before he can get a valve job. Maybe he takes the car with him? SHE has to drive the Mr. about these days and says it's like driving Mr. Daisy. He's been on a salt free, sugar free, fat free diet since he escaped from the hospital and SHE says she's lost 5 lbs already. Not that you'd notice. She said she might consider feeding me n Puffy some of this foodibles, since there's nothing in it that would be bad for us either.



I am sooooo happy is he home, even though he has to SIT/STAY according to SHE who must be obeyed. I sit right next to him or over the back of his chair or snuggled up on his pillow when he sleeps. My peep brother the Detective and my peep sissy, Queen Bee, are coming next week when the Mr. has his operation. I can't wait to see them. Queen Bee will make the idiot Marine shape up and take better care of me n Puffy while SHE stays with the Mr.
If you're wondering why I am in my play pen jail thingy, SHE was afraid I would trip up the Mr. when he came home. Until I calmed down, I got stuck in here. As you can see I was jump jump jumping for joy. Then, I just rock climbed my way up the fence and over the top! Nothing was gonna keep be from giving my Mr. soft woofie kisses.
Please keep him in your pawreyers. He has a terrier spirit, independent, stubborn, hard-headed, fiesty, loyal......all the great stuff!
All my love,
Bonnie

Your Mr. sounds like my Master. He does not follow medical advice well either. But being home with you is good medicine and we are grateful to hear that he is up and about. Our thoughts are with your family for continued recovery.

Hi Bonnie
Well I do like the sound of your Mr., and shall be delighted to consider him an honorary member of the terrier family. So I have my paws crossed that he makes progress in his recovery from that horrid stroke thing. And you must remember to be extra specially nice to all the humans, 'cos all this hospital stuff is very stressful for them.
Cheers, H.

Hi Bonnie
We will be thinking about your Mr - he is very naughty not doing what he is told and we hope your mom is not too stressed!
We know sometimes that humans not doing what they are told causes lots of stress for the other humans!!!
We are glad that you are giving lots of cuddles and we think that is a good idea having your toys nearby so you Mr can be throwing them.
You have to keep him moving!
We are thinking about all of you over here in Scotland - we have a few of these stubborn Mr's over here!
Take care.
love
Martha, Bailey & Mum xxxx

We're so sorry to learn your Mr. is confined to SIT/STAY and one of those free-of-everything diets. But he is with you and you can give him kisses -- so that's what's important.

We'll keep him in our prayers.

Did you see we had those Thanksgiving people on our bloggie too? They're a tradition at our house. (Thank you Publix!)

Wirey woofs,

Jake and Just Harry

Hey Bonnie-
Thanks for the update. Hope your Mr. keeps getting better. My grandpaw had a defib thingy installed last year. Don't worry he can still tell fibs pretty good, especially when the doctors ask if he is sticking to his supposedly low-fat, low-sugar diet! We'll keep you and the Mr. in our prayers!

Snorts-
