Surgery


I had to have surgery yesterday. It seems a long time ago, I must have rolled on a sewing needle, or something. When I was at the vet, about 2 weeks ago, mom asked them to scan my microchip and it was in the right place and still working. So, the funny hard bump on my L side, had to be something else. I got dropped off at the vet's office around 8am and got to go home, around 2pm. The vet removed a sewing needle, from near my ribs. He thinks I must have rolled on it, somehow. After the surgery, mom said I was Jasmine-turned-down-a-notch, because I was so mellow from the sedation and the anesthesia. She said today I'm much better.

It was hard Thursday night, because they couldn't let me eat, after 6pm. I'm used to my bedtime snacks and I wasn't happy! On Friday, after the surgery, then I could eat again and I sure did.

Last night, I was driving mom crazy, because I needed to pee every few minutes. Fortunately, by bedtime, that was better. She even talked to the on-call vet, but she thought it was just from all the IV fluid I must have been given, during surgery.

The Beach


I got to go to my favorite place last night, Kohler Andrae State Park. I love walking on the beach and Sarah always takes really cute pictures of me! There are always many different smells to inspect, too. From the amount of footprints on the beach, it looked like it had been a busy day for humans and pets, alike!

Here's what it looks like, when I first get to the park. Just let me get to the water and don't get in my way! LOL!

Mom was glad that I didn't roll in anything stinky last night, since she just gave me a bath on Tuesday, July 10th! She said my face was stinky. I thought I was just being a dog! I was a good dog, too, because I hopped into the tub, without having to be bribed with a treat!
