Corinne Spring is just around the corner. With the temps getting warming and the days getting longer the dogs made me buy them new spring clothes. Attached is a photo of Jeepers sporting his new fleece sweater.
Also attached is a photo of my two determined beggars. Jeepers is a very determined beggar. When I sit down to eat my dinner I can always count on him to be standing there bright eyed with ears perked. He never moves or makes a sounds. He just stands there bright eyed knowing he WILL get something. I think he is using mental telepathy to will me to give him my food. If I acknowledge his presence he will lay down as Sammy is. Sammy is learning from the master. One night I chose to ignore him while I ate thinking he would give up and go away. Of course I saved a few bites for him. When I was done eating I looked down and there was Jeepers standing there. He didn't move or make a sound the whole time. The funny part is he had drool from one corner of his mouth to the other and there was a string of drool from his mouth stretching all the way to the floor. I wish I had a picture of that one. He had some serious drool going.
Jeepers had seizure this past Sunday evening. It was the first one since last November. I was a little worried because it lasted a half hour. A few minutes after the seizure stopped he was up and running around again as though nothing had happened. That was a relief. Other than the last seizure his health is good. I'm sure I mentioned it, we go for daily walks so the dogs get a couple hours of exercise daily. I'm fortunate to have some area so close where they can go off leash. It is rare for us to miss our daily hike. He isn't much for running and playing outside but really likes to walk and explore and check out all the smells. At home Jeepers likes to run through the house and bark.
There have been a few mornings where I have woken to find Jeepers with his head resting on my pillow right next to my face. He is a real snuggle bug. If I get up he manages to slide into the spot I was keeping warm for him. when I come back I tell him that's my spot. He just looks at me like not anymore.
Here's a good one. I had the flu bug and burned a fever for 3 days. I went to bed laying on my back. A few hours later I woke up to find Jeepers laying between my legs, Griffey all stretched out pushed up against my side, and Sammy curled up in my armpit. I'm sure they were enjoying the fact I was such a good bed warmer. I was their favorite sleeping buddy for the few days I had a fever.
Jeepers is doing well, and I couldn't be happier he found us.
Take Care,
John
