Sunday Selfie

Hey y'all.  It were an eggciting Sunday round here, but not all of it wuz da good sccrambly eggy weggy varitee.  Me and Finn went on a Death March Zombie Patrol™dis morning.  And we wuz almost home - and eggcited bout it too, since we wanted our breakfast (and I wanted to stop walkin).  But den dese two crazed zombie dogs came runnin at us - one of em wuz a giant Doberman and da other wuz a big dog too.  Both me and Finn has been attacked by big off-leash dogs before.  And dese pupses wuz not friendly, trust me, my peeps know da difference.  Dey ran right cross da street at us - luckily Finley's momma and a naybor who was out joggin yelled at em real loud and dey went back home.  But we had to walk even longer to get home cuz we wuzn't gonna go past dere house.

I was arooin and barkin like crazy - dat wuz not fun.

Luckily, my day improved when da peeps made scrambly eggy weggies for breakfast along wif bacon.  I got some bacon and got to lick two egg plates, so dat wuz good.

And in really good news, my hot spot are pretty much FINALLY gone.  We has been usin da PetNat UltraSalve on it lately, and it seems to be helpin.  My back are still lookin weird cuz of da super short hair and da wrinkles, but da hot spot are not oozin and really are barely there.  So dat are good news!

Ya knows what else are good??  Pie!  And dis are how my peeps celebrated Pie Day yesterday.

 Yeah, dat are Key Lime Pie, and yeah, I gotta lick da plate and got some whipped cream.  And my momma are gonna have her second piece for dinner tonite - hopin for some more whipped cream!

Feelin Better

Hey y'all.  I thought I'd give a lil update on how I's doin since I's been havin some isshoes lately.

Da hot spot are gettin a lil better.  It are are now smaller, but still there and still oozin some.  I's keepin on da Aunty-Bye-Otics and da frequent cleanings of it.  Since it are sposed to be kept dry and it are deep in a wrinkle, da peeps has been usin a gauze pad to soak up da ooze.  It seems to be helpin some.

Dat old Arthur-Eye-Tis are still a pain in da butt, well I guess it are more like da hip.  I's still tryin to lie down on my Bataan Death Marches Zombie Patrols™, but momma makes me keep movin it.  Somefin bout if ya don't use it, ya lose it.  Easy for her to say, she are a still basically a puppy.  Although I does wonder bout her brain, maybe she has lost dat.  Da one thing she has lost for sure are her rapid eye movement sleeps, since I been wakin her up everyday at bout 4:30 or 5 to help me back up on da bed.  I like to get down in da middle of da night and drink water.  And I want back up in da bed when I'm done.  I think it's da least she can do.

Now, bout da eatin.  I are still refoosin my kibbles, but I has been gettin some chikken breast and it are da best!  I luvs chikken and has been eatin it up.  Before, momma was cookin up ground beef and puttin it on me and Finley's kibble.  Well, beef are not what are for dinner for dis gal, I prefers chikken.  Kinda like my momma, she are a chikken and seafood girl mostly.  I wouldn't be opposed to tryin some grilled shrimps on my kibble, but momma says dat'll be a cold day in Hell before dat happens.  Speakin of which, da weather says we might get snow next week . . . 

I's off to go snoopervise some more dress-makin - I has two dresses bein made right now and I can't wait to show y'all!  Finley's momma are makin my Valentine's one - I can't wait to wear it to da Heart 2 Heart dance wif Seth - we are gonna have a tail-waggin good time!

Sepia Saturday

Yeah, I wuz hangin out by da pool while momma tried to tan.  Whatefur kinda tan she thinks she can get in February.  I dunno what are wrong wif bein white myself, BOL BOL!

In some uneggspected news, momma has actually already cut out da fabric for my February dress.  And Finley's momma are gonna make me a speshul new Valentine's dress for da Heart 2 Heart Dance - I is goin wif dat cutie pie Scottie boy Seth.  We'll show em all blondes has more fun, right Seth??

In udder news, my hot spot are improvin some.  Da mommas has been usin bentadyne to clean me up (eggspect for da once a day I gets da full bathin of it) and has been wrappin it up wif gauze so da oozles can be soaked up.  It are real tuff to keep a hot spot down in a wrinkle dry, but I are a wrinkly westie girl.  Which are kinda different itself, but I likes bein different and you-neek!  If it is lookin better by Monday I might get outta goin to da vetman, so I's hopin it does get better.

Owl-a-riffic

Well, momma hasn't gotten started on da February dress, but she did make a new jacket.  It are a bright yellow fleecey with owls on one side and hearts on da other.

I guess it are kinda fittin since we's night owls round here.

And when I wearin it, I can't scratch da hot spot, which are probably her all-terrier motive.  Speakin of da hot spot, it are pretty much da same.  I's been subjected to just bout everything, but it are still oozin da green mucus stuff and bein all nasty.  Momma are tryin to give da Aunty-Bye-Otics some time to work before rushin me back to da vet, but we's both gettin frustermarated.

Welcome Weezy!

My pal Eloise (some of my pals from Dogster probably know her brofurs, Beanie and Bacon and her angel siblings, Miss Izzy B and Ernie George) got herself a bloggie!  She are a cute lil cairn terrierist girl puppy from Minnesnowdah.

 
Warnin: her bloggie may give your peeps a case of da Puppy Fever™ - dat are what lookin at all her cute pictures on da Faceybook has done to my momma.  But y'all should head on over there and say hi anyways.   Ya can check out her blog here.

Well, and now for an update on da hot spot dat just won't go away - it got less red and inflamed, but wuz still oozin in da wrinkles and crustin, even though momma was real good bout da loshin and cleanin it off everyday.  So now I'm on some Auntie-Bye-Otics.  Here's hopin dat dis'll finally clear it up.

Oh da Horrors!

Well, momma's been threatenin me wif a visit to da vet for a while.  Mostly cuz of dat dumb ol hotspot not gettin better and just gettin worse and worse.  I's had em before, but momma has always managed to get em under control at home.

My arthur-eye-tis wuz doin a lil better today, so I may be ready for another Zombie Patrol™ on Friday.  I are not patrollin tomorrow on counts of it sposed to be rainy and stuff, so if da mommas are dumb enuf to venture out in dat, dey are just gonna have to deal wif da zombies on dere own.

Anyways, I went to see da vet.  I had to wait for a while since he'd been outta town and was apparently pretty popular.  There were a couple other dogs there waitin, a cocker spaniel and a lil dachshund.  Momma just held me in her lap so I wouldn't bark everyone too much.  I are kinda a known loudmouth round there, last time I got my teeth cleaned dey called momma early to come take me home since dey wuz tired of my barkin.

I think dey got revenge on me for all my barkins at dem.  Either dat or da vetman wanted to give me a bald spot to match his.  Yeah, dey shaved my back where da hot spot had taken over.  Let's just say it are a good thing I likes wearin clothes, cuz dis ain't pretty.

Oh my gorgeous furs!  Gone, all gone!!  I sure hope dey grow back.

Dose are da wrinkles I got.  Da vetman and all da techs are still pretty confuserated bout dem - dey don't mean anything bad, dey's just never seen a westie wif wrinkles.  But ya can see how red and inflamed my poor lil back are.  And dat it are kinda oozy and nasty-lookin, and dis are after bein medicated.  I gots some more lotion for my back and da vetman wants me on steroids for a few days too (which means I gotta stop takin my Metacam for a few days since he don't want me on steroids and an NSAID at da same time).

Dis are not a good look.  And I are not a happy dog.  Da only good part of da day wuz dat da mommas went to Whataburger on da way home from da vet and I gotta eat fries in da car.  And some fries at home too.  I don't think frenchie fries make up for dis though, I think I deserved a whole Whataburger.  And some new clothes, I are definitely gonna need em to hide dis.

Finley's momma are already at work sewin right now.

Hey y'all.  I survived today's Death March Zombie Patrol™ and even got to bark a few zombies.  I's been havin a real hard time on da walks for da past few days - I think da winter are makin my arthur-eye-tis worse.  And of course, I's a terrierist and real stubborn, so when I don't wanna go, I just lie down.  Momma keeps tryin to make me move though.  Dat exorcisin stuff are fine for her to do, I just don't know why she's gotta involve me in.  I do provide some good resistance work for her since she are draggin 17 pounds of stubborn westie round da nayborhood for an hour.

My hot spot are still not all healed up.  Momma says I are gonna have to go to da vet on Monday if it ain't better by den, so I need some POTP for it since I don't really wanna go see da Vetman.  I don't mind seein him too much, but ever since I had to get stitched up one time, I hasn't liked goin to da vet (even though dat wuz da mergency vet).  So I'm hopin it's better.

Momma wuz talkin bout cuttin out some dresses for me, so maybe she are actually gonna get to work tonight.  A girl can hope.

Hot Hot Hot

Not da weather.  Dat are cold and dreary.  Maybe not super cold for ya yankee pupses.  I's lived in Bawston, so I know what da super colds are like.  But it are cold enuf for me and momma and gray and dreary too.  So I been spendin a lot of time hybernatin.

But da nasty hot spot I got at da end of December are back wif a venjanse.  It had pretty much healed up and wuz just a lil scabby.  But yesterday, right next to wear da firstest one wuz, a new hot spot popped up.  It wuz oozin green stuff - real nasty.  My whole back are red and funky lookin right now, I's havin to wear a fleecey jacket so I won't be scratchin it too much.  Momma are puttin Dermacton on it and cleanin it off.  Dese hot spots sure ain't fun.

Oh and some nasty NotMe pup came in my bedroom last night when da door wuz closed and peed AND pooped on da floor!  Can ya believe da nerve of dat NotMe dog???

Sunday Selfie

It are a Schnooter Selfie, BOL BOL!  My hot spot are a lil better today, but it are still nasty and no fun.  It's a cold day here, so I's just snoozin on da back of da couch bein Head of Security™ and guardin da house from da invadin zombie hoards.  Yeah, dat are what I are doin.

Crockett are keepin me company.

Well pupses, I are not feelin too hot.  Or maybe I are feelin too hot and dat are da problem.  Da problem are my back - I gots a nasty hot spot on it.  I's gotten em before, but dis one are da biggest and da worstest.  I gots in on da night on da 23rd, and it are still hanging round.

I would show ya a picture, but it are kinda gross.  Oozy, bright red, and my hair are fallin out where it are.  Da skin are also real hot to da touch.  Momma's been cleanin it off and I's been wearin jackets cuz otherwise I'd be scratchin and it would get even worse.  We gots all kinds lotions and stuff on counts of Finley havin da itchies, so momma's been usin some of dem on me too.  But da hot spot are still lookin bad and I's probably gonna have to go to da vet on Monday.

Dis whole hot spot thing are makin me feel kinda down, it seems like I been gettin more of em since I developed all dese back wrinkles - dey start down in a wrinkle and are tuffer to get rid of.  Here's hopin I can say goodbye to dis one before da new year.  I needs my furs, it are gettin cold out there.
