Very busy times

Our family have been very busy these past weeks...

Mom says she is wayyyy behind in commenting

the blogs

that she follows

and she is really sorry for this.

In between the occasional play session at the dog park

and our daily walks,

Fino and I had to spend some time in our crates...

and build up our separation anxiety problem.

See, our dear brudder Jerome

had numerous appointments

at the hospital.

Two weeks ago,

he had a same-day surgery to have a drain

removed from his right kidney...

only to have to replaced two days later

after a long day at the ER.

It seems that the vital organ could not

work properly without it.

Then, his horrible, hard-to-kill

bacteria manifested itself again

and he had a week of daily IV treatments.

Certainly because of our cheerful presence,

Jerome was a trooper all the way.

He's the best!

The little guy will have to go through another surgery

(this time a major one, like the

one he had earlier this year)

on November 29th, if things

go according to plan.

Mom thinks that we'll go to the doggie hotel again.

Dad replied that, with his days off from work,

we could probably manage without it.

He mentioned something called "money".

Orijen kibbles and delicious treats, we understand,

but money? What is this anyway?
