Sick days

This week has not been a good one for me. I got a bad case of hemorragic gastroenteritis. My parents were so scared... I had to go to the vet and stay there for 2 days, where I was fed through intravenous therapy. And yesterday, just when I started feeling OK again, I got sick a 2nd time... Today I feel fine and I run around the house just like before, though... My mom hopes I'll stay healthy for a while now...

To cheer you up a little, here are some magazines from England, France and the USA featuring cavaliers. My mom bought them these past months. Isn't that tri-colour puppy adorable?
The French magazine article explains that we, cavaliers, have a long and very romantic history. We are Royal Spaniels. I need a crown fast!

  1. My dear friend I hope you are much better! I will pray for you to get well and STAY WELL! You do know that football season is right around the corner and I may need some extra players! I think you would do great on the team! Take care and get lots of rest!

  2. Remington, I am a fast runner so I think I could qualify. And I receive Sports Illustrated every week. If you could make the ball a bit smaller, though, it'll help me a lot!

  3. Poor Rouky, we were wondering why we had'nt heard from you for the past few days. I didn't know dogs could get gastro...that's awful. Hope you're back to your cheery self again soon. We love those magazines too. Where did you buy them on the internet? Marley and Jasper.

  4. Hi Marley and Jasper,

    I bought some magazines at the big bookstore in Montreal, where they have lots of international editions, and others at a local newstand, that is close to home. I bought the one named Your Dog yesterday and I find it very interesting. Lots of articles, few ads. They still had 2 or 3 past issues on stand. I think I'll pick them up this afternoon...

  6. Our darling friend, Rouky!! We're worried when we saw your sad face... Our paws crossed for your health. We'll be thinking of you, ok?

    We love the magazine covers! Our pawrents are into The Tudors. Everytime they see cavaliers on a movie, we have to stop DVD.

    Royal Spaniels in T.O. :) :)

    hugs

  7. Hi Rouky, please tell your Mummy (Mommy) that she can order the Pride and Prejudice sequels from Rebecca Ann Collins for very cheap from www.bookdepository.co.uk they are only around $12.00 Australian dollar, so probably cheaper US or Canadian and they offer free shipping. They have all 10 books there. Also the sequels from Elizabeth Astin are my favourite. I'm almost finished reading the first one from Ms Collins and I'm enjoying it but I did LOVE the Astin books better I must admit. Okay so enjoy your holiday and your reading.

  8. Thanks, Jasper and Marley's mom! Cheap is good! :-) I did not know about this website before... And thanks, also, for guiding me toward the better sequels. My vacation will be short, so the reading has to be good!

  9. Oops sorry that's Elizabeth Aston not Astin. She wrote Mr Darcy's Daughters. I think that's the first in her series. There are about eight books I think from memory. Have fun.

  10. Rouky are you all better yet and running like mad? I say we do get to wear crowns!! We have jewelled ones attached to our harnesses. For some reason these humans laugh when they see them :S
