Vacation Pictures!

Vacation Update!

Sorry for not posting yesterday, I was experiencing technical difficulties (which really means, I was too lazy to post! Hee hee!)

My vacation was AWESOME!! I got to spend tons of time with Mommy and Daddy! Let me tell you though, it did not start out very good...The first two days(saturday and sunday), I was a sick little boy :( I had bad poopies and was very sleepy. That Monday morning Daddy took me outside to go potty and as soon as I walked out onto the porch I threw up. BUT...I threw up THE GLOVE!! YAY!!! I felt pretty good after that! Mommy called the vet and they talked about my poops and said I had to eat boiled chicken and rice for a few days to get my stomach back to normal. CHICKEN IS THE BOMB!!! I absolutely LOVE chicken!
So for most of that week, we had some fun. I did a lot of playing outside, sleeping and eating, which is what I normally do but since it was vacation it was ten times better! My poops were looking good until about Wednesday afternoon. Then I got sick again. SO I had to go to the vet on Thursday. He gave me some medicine to take and some new food and Mommy had to rub some ointment on my bum cause it was really sore and red.
We left Friday for camp and that was my favorite part of our vacation. There were so many dogs at camp to meet and play with! And I got to swim in the river! I LOVED the river until.....I slipped and went completely underwater. Then I got scared and wouldn't go into the river again. I can't help it. I may be a big boy but I am still a baby. Hee hee!

GOLF CART RIDES. That's all I'm gonna say. I fell in love. I would very much like a golf cart for Christmas. Santa? You listening? I could have spent all weekend riding the golf cart, it was the BEST!!

We came home Sunday and I was a very sleepy puppy! My poops have been looking much better and the vet called Mommy on Sunday to check on me. I have to finish my medicine and special food so I can get back to healthy again!

Overall my first vacation ROCKED and I can't wait to do it all over again!!

(Mommy will post pictures from our vacation this week so keep checking the blog!)

Mondays are poopy....and so am I!

Well, I went to the vet Saturday morning to get my last shot and my second dose of the wormer meds. The doctor told my Mommy and Daddy that the latex glove may not come out for days, weeks or months! So they have to inspect every single poo I make. I don't envy them one bit cause I am stinky!! Hee hee :) They still have to watch me for signs of distress but the doctor wasn't too worried about it.

I had a really GREAT weekend! Mommy and Daddy took me to a park to play frisbee and chase my ball. It was SO much fun! I hate Mondays though because that means Mommy and Daddy have to go back to work :( That makes me sad. BUT they said that they are on vacation next week so we get to spend TONS of time together and I can't wait!!

I went with Mommy on a photo shoot last week and here's a pic Daddy took of me in the Jeep. I was a very good boy and I made the model laugh a lot. Hee hee!!

Oh boy.....

So...ummm....last night Mommy and Daddy took me to visit my Aunt Lisa and to play with my cousins Rocky and Lacy. Well, the visit didn't exactly go the way they had planned. I did a BAD thing... I, ummm, well, I swallowed a plastic/rubber glove. Whole. Like a spaghetti noodle. Oops. It was just so delicious, I couldn't help it. Aunt Lisa saw me grab it and she ran over and tried to take it from my mouth but I was way too fast. Mommy and Daddy were very upset and worried, they called the vet right away. The vet said that I should just poop it out and not to worry but Mommy had to stay home from work today to watch me in case I show signs of distress (whatever) I feel GREAT! I don't know what the big deal is. Yeesh. So I guess I'll let you know when it comes out. (There will NOT be any pictures of that!!) Heehee....

We interrupt this blog to bring you a special bulletin...

TRUCKS. FARTS. ARE. NASTY! EEEEEWWWWW.

We now bring you back to your regularly scheduled blog...

My 4th of July

I thought I would show you some pics of me relaxing at home before I tell you about my 4th of July weekend......why? BECAUSE I DID EVERYTHING BUT relax this past weekend! It was crazy fun!! I met two Dachshunds, Ruby and Charlie (both girls) and they were SO full of energy! Charlie just barked at me but Ruby ran circles around me until I was dizzy! She is SO fast! There was a Beagle named Henry who just cried every time I walked by him (he's a sweet old guy and I think he just wanted me to leave him alone) and Max a really furry Sheltie who played soccer with me in the yard. I was having SO much fun! I even almost went into the swimming pool! (almost being the key word there, hee hee!) The loud booms (Daddy says they were fireworks) didn't bother me at all either. We had a birthday party for my Gramma and one for my Uncle too. I also went up to my Paw-Paws house and played in his big yard! He gave me a BIG stick to play with :) So I spent my Monday catching up on my sleep because boy did I need it!! I LOVE BEING A PUPPY!!

Shhhhh.....

I have a puppy hangover from the holiday weekend. SO much playtime! I need to sleep ALL day today in order to recover (post with pictures coming tomorrow)......ZZZzzzzzzzzz...

Nom, Nom, Nom

So I really like to eat. I mean REALLY. I love food! Breakfast is awesome! Lunch is really cool! Dinner is the BEST!! I mean, I eat the same thing for all 3 but it's good every single time! I get into to it too. I bury my face in the bowl and work up a good slobber. Mommy and Daddy always have to wipe my face with a towel after I'm done or else I make a BIG mess!! Hmmm.........I wonder if it's time to eat? All this talk about food has made me SO hungry!!! Nom, nom, nom...

YOU KNOW YOU ARE A GREAT DANE OWNER WHEN...

*you tell your dog to sit, and he backs up until he finds a chair

*your dog can hide an entire tennis ball (among other things) fully inside his lips and give you that innocent look that says, "What? I'm not eating anything!"

*you toss your dog a ball and cringe when he almost hits his head on the top of the doorway

*you take your dog for a ride and he rests his head on your arm, causing you to make random right turns

*you have to move over when brushing your teeth because your dog wants a drink

*the sound of running water makes you jump up and yell, "OUTSIDE!"

*your two dogs decide to play in the house, and they end up pulling the ceiling fan
down -- for the second time

*your dog can see what you are cooking, and tries to assist you in the preparation

*your dog stands in your lap and reaches over you to stick his head in the drive-through window at McDonald's and nearly gives the cashier a heart attack when she turns around to give you your change
