Little Dog in a Big World

Today was the day that Misha gets out of the hood.  It may have been the worse day yet–for me, not her.

She started the morning by eating breakfast.  Then when I turned my back, she threw it all up.  I hadn’t planned on taking her hood off before I had my breakfast, but there was no choice unless I was going to tie her to my back while I cleaned the play pen.

With the blanket in the washer, she was in the play pen for the first time in almost two weeks hood free.  She licked but did not concentrate on the wound.  I think she was reassociating herself with her body parts.  LOL

After breakfast, I let her go free.  She did her best wild party dance running from room to room as if she hadn’t seen the house in weeks.  Then she did something she has never done.  She squatted to poop in my bedroom!  I rushed her out, but found two presents that landed before we made it to the door.

We played then took a walk.  At lunchtime, I put her in the play pen.  I got her food and was ready to get her when I realized she peed…on the same blanket I had just taken out of the dryer.  I swear, that’s the cleanest blanket in the house!

Finally she got her lunch, the play pen was clean again, and I was off to do some chores.  All of this before noon!
