Bailey ouches her paw

Mommy took us pups to the park today to romp around. Except Bailey was running and she hurt her paw. Or maybe she hurt her paw yesterday and today was the first time Mommy saw it.

Either way, Bailey was ouched!

She limped. She laid down and licked her paw. And when we got home she got into Scout's cave and stayed there all day.

So Mommy took Bailey to see Dr. Hawkins. She gave Bailey some ouch medicine. And while she was there, Bailey got her rabies shot.

Mommy says that we are going to end up living in Daddy's new truck if we don't stop spending all of Daddy's money. I told her that would never happen! We would go live at Grandma's house! Hahahaha!!

So Bailey can't romp for a few days. Which means she can't chase me and jump on my head. Yay.

We make an escape

Mommy went to the grocery store and left us dogs home alone with Daddy. That was not a good idea, Mommy.

Daddy was doing something icky with the gutters on the roof. When he opened the gate to move the ladder, Bailey snuck out. Daddy hurried to try and catch her and forgot to close the gate. So me and Scout snuck out, too.

Bailey went in one direction to visit Flow, and me and Scout went in the other direction to pee on Wayne's shrubs.

Flow brought Bailey home, and me and Scout thought about going down to the park for a while. But we decided to just go home and not get Daddy into too much trouble. Plus, we hadn't had dinner yet and we were hungry.

Next time, maybe we should just go to the store with Mommy.

Bandit is bad but Bailey gets in trouble

I learned a new trick this week. I steal something of Mommy's - like a sock or a book - and then I give it to Bailey and let her get in trouble for having it.

Except Mommy said she knows it was me stealing stuff. Mostly because Bailey isn't big enough to steal silverware from the sink.

Rats. I'll have to figure out another way to get her in trouble.

Love,
Bandit

PS: Bailey has decided that she likes to sleep in all of the caves and me and Scout told her to go ahead. Scout has Mommy's whole office for himself and my cave has a bear in it. So Mommy said she spent a lot of money on what are basically end tables where Bailey can sleep.

Bandit and his new cave

Last night, Mommy took the door off of my cave to prove that she is not going to wham it shut and lock me in and go on adventures without me. But I think the bear is still in there so I told her that I was not going in.

Today she used chicken to trick us all into going into our caves. Bailey and Scout both went right in to their cave and they let Mommy shut the doors on them. Then she fed them chicken like they were animals at the zoo. They wagged their tails and said, Thanks for the great treat, Mommy!

Boo on that.

While Mommy tricked Bailey and Scout, I just went into the kitchen and got myself a treat from the chicken container on the counter.

Mommy is going to have to be trickier than me if she wants to get me to go into that scary cave.

Bandit reminds Bailey which dog is in charge

Just in case you didn't know, sometimes dogs will go potty on something to remind the other dogs who is in charge.

Today I peed on Bailey's head. I hope she gets the message.

We get new caves

Bailey likes her new cave. What does she know? She's just a stupid girl.
 Mommy bought us new caves today. She said these are the places we are supposed to go when we need to get away from each other. It is not punishment; it is our own quiet place.

Scout likes his cave. Bailey likes her cave.

I hate my cave. It is dark and scary and I think there is a bear in there. And I am sure that as soon as I get my whole body in there Mommy is going to wham the door shut and lock me in and go on an adventure without me. Even though she promises that's not what she is going to do.

I'm not going in there not matter how much chicken Mommy throws in. The bear can eat it.

Love,
Bandit

It's sick week at the Funny Farm

Remember last week when I told you that we had special marrow bone treats? Guess what? After those treats, all of us dogs have been sick.

Bailey had emergency poop the first night we had them on Monday.

I had emergency poop when we finished them on Wednesday. Then I had mystery barf yesterday.

Scout had mystery barf AND emergency poop on Thursday and Friday, and he had emergency poop on Sunday. He took a day off on Saturday.

Dr. B and Dr Hawkins said that the bones are too rich for our tummies, and Dr. Herrema also said they probably have yucky bacteria stuff because they are raw.

Blech.

Mommy has been picking up barf and emergency poop for a week. She said at least only one dog at a time was sick. We have only been eating rice and chicken or beef for breakfast and dinner. We tried some dog food mixed in but it made our bellies feel icky again. Mommy has been playing Dr. Doolittle. It's fun. For us, anyway.


The new rule is NO MARROW BONES for us dogs. We can have Kongs and Nylabones and ... well, those are pretty much the only toys we don't rip apart in five minutes.
 
So just in case you didn't know, marrow bones will probably give you mystery barfs and emergency poops. But if you get mystery barf and emergency poop, you get to eat special food. So it's not all bad.
 
Love,
Bandit
