ARF!

Do you ever wish you could understand puppy talk?  Rosie has a number of arfs, whines, and barks that I just can not figure out.  She looks at me and it is as if she is actually telling me something.   Maybe with time I will understand her.

I took her to the vet today. She does not like riding in a car and usually cries the entire time.  Today, however, she did not cry at all. Baby steps.  She weighed in at 4lbs and got a Lymes disease shot.  Back in two weeks for the follow up lymes and the 3rd Parvo.  Does it ever end? 

I'm thinking about taking her for a 'Spa Day'.  Maybe a little trim, get her nails done, get a bow in her hair.  I'm not sure how she would like that though.  I am also thinking about talking to my boss to see if I might be able to bring her to work with me a couple of days a week. He likes dogs. I think he might go for it.  Of course I would have to 'puppy safe' my office.  Paper clips, staples, and computer cords are all hazards since she will eat anything off the floor.  I do mean anything. Food or not! At Easter, someone left a piece of foil on the floor that she tore up.  I took it away from her but we still saw shiny poo for a day or so.  My daughter took her chihuahua to the vet and he had to have a xray.  They saw a nail and an earring in his stomach.   Paige said she knew exactly which earring it was. The vet said he would probably pass it. Hopefully he will not have a problem.  He passes Legos all the time. That is still scary though.

I love my Rosie.  I just wish I knew what she wanted.
