I Wish...


...I could rescue this puppy. I think Kona would love her. She is so cute! Then I could have two doodles.

$365 Enema

For those of you that have been reading my blog for some time you probably thought this post would be about my cat. Oh no....this time it was Kona. She had been mopey and disinterested in food then she started throwing up so I decided to take her to the vet. I was hoping she hadn't eaten anything bad that was blocking her digestive tract. After x-rays and blood work we decided that she just needed a enema. What is with my pets? Why are they always getting constipated?

So now I have a happy puppy once again. Although, she did eat (and throw up) a pine cone last night. Duh.

Unfortunately, this unexpected vet visit has put off my being able to get a new car that can transport me, my dog, and my kayak. I wish I could win the lottery (or even just a new car).

Hobo


The other night I was laying on the couch and noticed a giant hobo spider running across the end of my couch. Yikes!! I jumped up, grabbed my puma and smashed him into oblivion. (Shivers). I hate those things. And to think I was sharing my couch with him.

Chic Magnet


I am finding out that my new puppy is more of a chic magnet than a dude magnet. Definitely not the effect I was hoping for. Last time I took her for a walk I had two women pull over and ask me what kind of dog she was. (Sigh).

To my friends in Cali- you said I needed to make sure that my dogs name was something I would be comfortable explaining to a guy... you didn't warn me that I should make sure my dog isn't so cute that she only attracts women. :o)

Shredding

I think I found the perfect way to get rid of junk mail. All I have to do is leave it on the floor and Kona takes care of everything. This morning she shredded two newspaper fliers and had a blast doing it. All I had to do was make sure she didn't eat all the little pieces.

Biting


Everything is going well with my new puppy. She is very smart and is learning her basic commands quickly. We still have to work on the biting thing, but I am hoping to squash that behavior in the next couple of weeks. I think I will try to take her for a walk tonight and see how it goes.
