Just Momma and Callie today

Hey everybody!

Callie here! Droopy is at the vet's office today getting her teethies cleaned so it's just Momma and me today.

That's fine with me cause I haven't been feeling well lately. My tummy hurts most days and I'm just not interested in kibble. I've been eating rice and chicken with some sweet potatoes or peas. Momma says my liver enzymes are still very high. Well I'm gonna go back to my nap before grumpy Droopy comes home.

Sniff ya later,

Wordless Wednesday

Momma says we're strange puppies some days but we have no idea what she's talking about.

Check up time

Droopy here

I went for my yearly vet visit today.

I've gained 7 pounds so I now weigh 54 pounds! Dr. Bell said I could stand to lose a little weight. My eyes look good and my ears look good. Some of my teeth aren't looking so good but then again I'm almost 12 years old. Other than that I got a clean bill of health from Dr. Bell!

Callie is doing well this week. She's pretty pooped out, which isn't that uncommon after her chemo. Her appetite is kinda off kilter this week too. Sometimes she has to be prompted to eat and sometimes she cleans the entire food bowl without a second glance.

Well it's almost dinner time, gotta go annoy momma!

Callie and the Chemo Round 3 and a ruff couple of days

Droopy here

I'm taking over the blog so Callie can rest. We're had a crazy couple of ruff doggie days.

Callie went to chemo yesterday and I won't bore you with the details. Callie and Momma did have to stay at Dr. Liz's an extra little bit because another doggie was there getting it's chemo before Callie.

Jennifer, Dr. Liz's vet tech, talked to Momma about Callie liver. She said Callie's liver enzymes were super elevated and Callie needed to go on some special medicine. The medicine is made from milk thistle and should help Callie's liver. The only bad thing is if Callie's liver doesn't get better than Dr. Liz and Momma are gonna have think about changing Callie's chemo.

Other than that Callie is doing pretty well with her chemo.

Earlier in the week we found out that our friend Dodger (he's not a bloggie doggie) got hit by a car.

His Momma had to bring him to the doggie emergency room. He's gonna be ok- he had to get 15 stitches and has a concussion.

We also found out that one of our favorite rescue groups, The Sula Foundation, lost their namesake. Sula was a famous puppy! Her Daddy writes doggie books and put her on the cover of one of his books!

Sula the Pit Bull

We are very sad that Sula is gone. She was a stunning example of how super sweet pit bulls can be!

Sorry I made this bloggie post so sad! Hopefully we will have happier news to share in the coming days.

Cake culprit

Droopy and Callie here

We have a cake culprit in our house!!!! Oh nose!!!!!!

It all started with our Dad's birthday on Friday so Momma brought home a ginormous cookie, that the humans are claiming is really a cake. Momma told us it was a chocolate chip cookie cake so it was not basset hound friendly!

This giant cookie was left on the kitchen table and a chair wasn't pushed in all the way and the cake culprit struck!!!!

Seems to us the cookie culprit couldn't open the box!

Oh no!!!!! The culprit licked a whole bunch of icing off of Dad's cake!!!!!

We have no idea who this cake culprit could be!!!!!!!

It certainly wasn't us!!!!!

Lots of slobber,

Droopy and Callie

Our special guest's visit!

Callie here

Well my little human, Nikki, came over on Thursday! I was super happy to see her again!

Look how cute we are!

Droopy and I had a great visit with Nikki!! She even bought me some presents! Nikki brought me some treats (which I am forced to share them with Droopy), a really cute picture of herself with a guitar, a get-well card, and a super warm cuddly pink blanket!

My get well soon card!!

I love my new blanket!

My new blanket is my favorite. When I don't feel good it is perfect for curling up on for a nice nap!!

Nikki petted Droopy and I lots, which we both loved. She also asked Momma lots of questions about my chemo, like what kinds of medicine I have to take, how often I go for my chemo, and if it make me sickies. My Nikki is a very smart little human even though she has her own sickies. Nikki has As-burger syndrome; she is very shy and has lots of trouble in school so she gets to do school at home! Even though Nikki has trouble in human school she is very smart. She told Momma that she is gonna help raise money to help pay for my chemo! Momma thought this was very sweet!

Finally Droopy and I went outside and played in the backyard with Nikki.

Playing with Nikki was lots of fun! But then her momma said it was time to go home. Our Momma and Nikki's momma made plans to visit again since we had such a great time!

I hope she comes to visit again soon!
