Today, Lucy is at Dr. Mary's today being spayed. It was hard to drop her off there this morning, knowing that for the last 4 months, she's been at work every day I've been at work and that I was going to be on my own today. It's really quiet here, and I'm sure it's gonna be a long day without my little assistant. And of course, I'm gonna worry even though I know she's in good hands... It's just my nature to worry! I'll be very happy to pick her up this evening and take her home- even though I'm sure that keeping her out of trouble for the next week or so is gonna be a huge challenge!
I should mention that our little darlin weighed in at 44 pounds this morning when I dropped her at Dr. Mary's. Big puppy!
Costco has wonderful Cedar filled dog beds, and while I don't think they've got enough "padding" to them, Lucy loves the one that we have at the house, so I figured I would take the plunge! Lucy was so excited when she saw that dog bed, her little body wiggled so hard, I couldn't stop laughing! She made herself comfortable real fast, and settled in for a nap. I guess Lucy likes it! And I loved that every time I hugged Lucy last night, all I could smell was that wonderful cedar aroma.
I wish I had my camera with me, however it was all I could do to hold Lucy still long enough to get my shoes on, much less grab for a camera. She and Job are adorable together, running side by side, cuddling up next to one another once they were pooped, and little Lucy planting really sweet little kisses right on Job's face! I think the pups are in love, and it makes me smile!
After an hour, we separated the love birds and I took Lucy home, with an insane amount of protesting! She was so hot that after saying hello to her Daddy, she immediately went outside and laid down in her puppy pool! I must have been hot and pooped too, because most of the pictures that I took of her in the pool were a blurry mess.
Rob & I spent about an hour stuffing 300 envelopes while our little boxer baby looked on in complete and utter disgust. I don't know if it was the lack of attention making her look so mad, or if she was protesting the mess after our long talk the other day about keeping the house clean. But, boy was she mad! Doesn't she look disgusted?
"Just look at this mess you two made. How am I ever gonna clean this up? I's tired just tinkin about how much work it's gonna be. You n Daddy are a real handful, Ma!"
Happy Half Birthday Boxer Girl! Ours will be 6 months old on Monday - funny that they're just 5 days apart! We actually got ours when she was 4 weeks and 2 days old... wow, what a challenge!
ReplyDeleteHappy 1/2 barkday, Lucy.
ReplyDeleteOops, at first I thought you're the paper shredder, I'm sorry.
Hoomans are handful, real handful, sigh!
My new Lady Bird will be six months old next month, and I am already sweating her trip to the vet. Have you ever come across that cute email with pictures of cats and one of them has a caption that goes something like this..."Mom, I looked up "fixed" on the Internetz and one of the meaningz soundz disturbing.."
ReplyDeleteAnyway, Lucy looks so big to be 6 months old!
p.s. we have a puppy pool too for Bird, and she is the ultimate water dog. Lately she has learned to jump in a human pool and swims faster than the human children, in between trying to bite all the water around her.
Lucy is big for 6 months old... I'll have to add it to my post, but she weighed in at 44 pounds this morning at the vet. She's not fat, she's just gonna be a big boxer. Lucy's Mom is over 80 pounds, and her dad about a 100... My baby girl is gonna be a bruiser!
ReplyDeleteHappy 6 month birthday, Lucy!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou are adorable and I'm so glad you bring your Mom and Dad so much joy!
Your buddy,
Bocci
P.S. Really nice bed!
Trust our Momma- she's says time flies when you's having funs! And with Boxer Babies you's always having funs! Lucy will have a sweet gray muzzle before too long but that just means she's wiser so look out!!!

Happy half year birthday Lucy! I know getting spayed sounds like a bad present, but just think how many rewards it really gives in the long run! This is a great gift! Not only that, but right afterwards, Lucy gets extra special attention with hugs and kisses. And that was quite a mess yal made! Lucy didn't like it one bit!
