Happy Thursday friends! ❤️
Today was trash day, but before the trash trucks came Daddy turned the AC on in the bedroom, and Mama turned the TV up so we could sleep in this morning with Mama without those scary noisy trucks waking me up and making me nervous! Daddy came back to bed later in the morning to wake me and Mama up to start our day!
Mama and Daddy gave me lots and lots of love and kisses and belly rubs and then Daddy scooped me out of bed! Mama brought me to the kitchen where I got my meds and breakfast! Last week I refused to take my meds wrapped in cheese, so Mama started giving me them in peanut butter which was working well, but today I kept spitting the peanut butter covered pills out! Mama ended up having to put my seizure meds into a chicken nugget for me to eat them!
After breakfast time it was almost time for Daddy to leave so me and Mama kissed him goodbye at the door! Daddy took his old truck to work today so me and Mama could have the new truck for the day! Once Daddy was gone, Mama packed up our cooler and packed some steak bites for me and Maggie, then me and Mama got in the truck and started our day!
Mama started driving me to Grandmas house, but we had one stop to make along the way! Me and Mama had to stop at Mama and Daddy’s wedding venue so Mama could sign the contract and give the deposit so Mama and Daddy could lock in their wedding date! Mama and Daddy are officially getting married August 2nd 2026! I went with Mama to drop off the deposit and then me and Mama headed off to Grandmas house!
When we got to Grandmas house I was soooo excited! Mama carried me out of the truck and when she put me down I did huge zoomies around the yard! Mama opened up the door and let me into Grandmas house and I ran all around Grandmas house saying hello to everyone! Maggie was bouncing off the walls because she was so happy to see me! Mama took both me and Maggie into the yard and we went potty, then Mama brought us back inside!
Whenever I go to Grandmas I always go to her bedroom and grab a secret bag of doggie cookies that Grandmq keeps next to her bed and carry them to Mama, I’ve done it since I was a little baby and I first found the secret cookies! Unfortunately last time I went to Grandmas me and Maggie ate the last of the cookies, but Daddy and Mama never let me run out of cookies! Mama brought me a brand new full bag so even though I didn’t get to go find it myself, Mama gave me and Maggie lots of tasty cookies!!
After me and Maggie had our bellies full of cookies, Mama and Grandma settled down in the living room to watch some TV together and I chewed on a bone while Maggie snuggled with Mama! Maggie is so funny, she waits patiently for me to finish chewing my bone and as soon as I walk away Maggie steals my bone! She doesn’t want it before I start chewing, but once I have it she always wants it!
We all relaxed for a while in the living room together and then around 3:30 we all got ready to go to the vets! I had a vet appointment to get my butt glands expressed and nails trimmed and Maggie had an appointment to get her nails trimmed! Mama brought me in first and I met two really sweet dogs! One was a 6 month old rottie puppy, and one was a year old golden retriever! They were both sooo pretty!
After my appointment was done Mama brought me back to the truck to wait with Grandma and then Mama carried Maggie inside for her appointment! Poor Maggie is terrified of the vets, she shakes really bad! She also clings to Mama so Mama carries her the entire time and the vets carry her around too because she just likes to be close to everyone! After Maggie’s appointment Mama carried Maggie back to the truck and she went back to riding on Grandma’s lap!
On the way home Mama went a different way than usual so I was eager to see where we were headed! You can imagine my excitement when I saw Mama pull into the local farm that also has an ice cream stand! I jumped right out of the truck so fast Mama almost couldn’t catch me! Mama lowered me down then Grandma and Maggie got out of the truck and we all headed over to see the animals!
On the farm I saw chickens, goats, pigs, sheep, a pony, a donkey, some peacocks and a big giant livestock guardian doggie, who I don’t think liked me very much and made Mama a little nervous! The goats were so silly, one of them even tried to headbutt me through the fence a bunch of times! It made me very excited and I got the zoomies and spun Mama around in circles and made her dizzy! The sheep were watching the whole thing and I think they found it very interesting!
I went to visit the pigs because those are always my favourite but they were all sleeping! They were 4 baby piggies so Mama said we had to let them sleep because they were just babies! We made our loop around the farm to visit all the animals, including a very vocal donkey, and then we all headed over to the ice cream stand! Me and Maggie stayed with Mama and Grandma went in to order us some ice cream!
Mama got a maple walnut ice cream, Grandma got a brownie, and me and Maggie shared a strawberry ice cream! It was soooo delicious! There was so many big strawberries in the ice cream and me and Maggie really really enjoyed it! Maggie is such a dainty eater, but since we were sharing an ice cream I ended up accidentally getting ice cream all over her face! We made quite the mess!
Mama and Grandma brought us over to the handwashing station to get us all cleaned up and then just before we left I noticed the piggies were all awake! I went over to say hello and I laid down next to the fence! All 4 of the baby piggies were obsessed with me! They all stuck their cute little noses through the fence and covered me in kisses!!! I even stuck my paw through the fence and they all nibbled on my toes!
Getting all those kisses from the piggies made me very excited and wiggly and I started to roll all around in the sand and get the zoomies! Mama was laughing at me and the pigs found it very interesting but all the commotion caught the attention of the livestock guardian dog! He was absolutely huge! I actually met him last year and he came over to sniff me then started growling at me last year, so this year as soon as he came over Mama pulled me away from the pigs and put herself between me and him!
Usually I get very wiggly when I see other doggies but I could read Mamas body language that she was nervous and I just froze! Thankfully once Mama pulled me away from the piggies the other pup wasn’t as interested. He circled me and Mama for a minute then he moved along to keep patrolling the farm! I guess he just didn’t like how excited I was getting with the piggies even though they were loving my attention!
After that Mama loaded me up in the truck and Grandma loaded Maggie up on her lap and we headed back home! I was quite tired by the time we got home, but Mama brought us into the backyard to go potty! I guess I had one last burst of energy left in me because I did some huge zoomies around the yard and then I found a big stick in the woods and carried it into the yard! I chewed on it for a little while, then I went back inside with Mama and Maggie!
Mama and Grandma put their show back on the TV, and then me and Maggie relaxed in the living room! Me and Maggie were both soooo sleepy! We all relaxed for a while and then around 7:30 it was time for me and Mama to head home! Me and Maggie still hadn’t gotten our steak bites, so Mama gave us our delicious steak and then we said goodbye to Maggie, Uncle Justin and Grandma! Grandma walked us outside and gave me some kisses after Mama lifted me into the truck!
Mama drove me home and I slept like a baby the whole ride home! When we got home I was so sleepy I could hardly stand up to get out of the truck! I was sleeping with my tongue out in the backseat on the ride home and Mama said my tongue was so dry when I got out of the truck it was like a piece of leather hehehe! I slowly waddled my way inside and when I got in I went straight to the couch!
Daddy came home just a couple minutes later and I was so sleepy I couldn’t even get up and wiggle around! I just looked at Daddy when he came in the house and wagged my tail and he came over and gave me lots of love and kisses!! Daddy just went to change out of his work clothes and now it’s time for Daddy to make my dinner and Dusters wet food dinner! I just know I’m going to sleep like a baby tonight after such a fun day today!
Goodnight everyone and sweet puppy dreams! I hope you all had a wonderful day!!! I wuvs you all soooo much! 🐾❤️🥰
