Oh my gosh, I forgot to tell ya that yesterday even though Mamaw wasn’t feeling very well, she took me to the vet to get some flea, tick and whatever other culprits there will be at the dog park. She talked with Dr. Merk about my itching—which hasn’t gotten a bit better. So today Poppy ran over to pick up some vitamins for them to squirt on my food. It’s supposed to add oil to my coat cause Dr. Merk says cocker spaniels are prone to allergies—Mamaw is too so I guess I’m in good company!

Mamaw isn’t under the porch today but she isn’t on the porch either. Sorta just tryin to get better. She hates it when she’s sick cause she usually has so much stuff to do and it interferes with our “special time” together. We’ve only been on one walk today.

Well, Poppy could see that things weren’t real good yet so he got the grocery list around and went to the store to buy us some food. Mamaw is so grateful for Poppy. He can just do about anything…Oh, and he sent the taxes in today. There’s always a lot of mumbling and complaining when this is due…

I can smell that “stuff” from the vet on my food. It smells like fish oil. I’m gonna avoid eating anything until I’m just so hungry I can’t wait anymore. I keep begging for people food and she just ignores me—I’m getting a little worried I might have to eat it soon. I’m cuddling with Mamaw—doesn’t work. I look at her with my beautiful brown, sad eyes—doesn’t work. Somebody help me! Okay—YOU WIN! I’m gonna eat it and I just hope you and Dr. Merk are right about the itching coming to an end.

We had a nice rain but nothing measurable in our rain gauge. Hope tomorrow is a better day all the way around.
