Working the Boo Boo

Mum caught me licking my shoulder boo boo this morning. When the vet's called to check up on me, they said I should wear a T-shirt.

 
So here I am in one of Mum's work shirts (because the color matches my collar).

 
 I've had to keep it on all day, even when we went to the creeky place, although Mum warned me about not getting it wet. Yeah, right!

  
 I'm supposed to be resting up today, so all I was allowed was a bit of "stick".

  
The T-shirt didn't cramp my style too much. This stick was about 5' long and I made a good job of showing it what's what.
 

Thanks for all your kind comments. I took your advice and have been making sure Mum and Dad remember at all times that I've got a REALLY BAD owie and need lots of treats to make me feel better. I do have some extra special treats that the vet gave me to take away the hurty part and make sure nothing nasty grows in the owie patch. I get extra chicken with them.

Jack, please tell the Tall Guy he should definitely learn how to do the arm pushy thing. Mum says it's called surrogate energy testing and it was my friend Donna Eden who taught her how to do it. Mum teaches it to other people in Sedona and sometimes does it on their puppies too. It can help your peoples know what food is best for you, or what food gives you an upset tummy. If you're feeling poorly, they can find out what's hurting. Of course, if they just listened to what we're telling them all the time, they wouldn't have to do all this, but there you go.

A T-Shirt? That's a great idea! Much better then those stupid old hard collars!

Thanks, we'll remember that next time.

Glad you're feeling better.

Luv,

How Sam Sees It said...

We may have to run up to Sedona and have you show us how to do that! Sam is getting older, and we would like to know where his aches and pains are.

Sam, and anyone else, we'd be happy to help. I've been wanting to host an Energy Medicine for Pets class for a while. There are so many simple things we can do for our pups, and the energy testing is invaluable.

We believe that when one has a boo-boo one must take full advantage of the boo-boo situation making sure that the PAWrents give sympathy and treats frequently during the day.

What a doll! You look adorable, even though it's not for the greatest of reasons. I hope you are feeling better by now!

Hello Ruby,

How are you doing? Your t-shirt is pawesome. Though it's primarily for your booboo, the color suits you. The photos are also very pretty. We hope you are feeling better and is a-ok. We miss you.
