Dear Santa Paws!

Dear Santa Paws!!!

Its CoCo Puff here! I'm providing my annual letter to you in hopes that it will get to the North Pole before X-Mas. This year my wish is simple....GOOD HEALTH to ALL, is all I want...pups & people!

In getting into the SPIRIT of Christmas....I got dressed for the occasion!
I've been a good pup all year....up until last week when I decided to leave my house to walk myself, since its been too cold for Daddy to walk me. Let me just say, Daddy made sure that I wouldn't ever do that again. I had ventured out to the front of the house, through the cracked garage door and roamed the neighborhood for 10 minutes...all by myself while Daddy was in the shower. I even rolled all over something dead to mask the scent! Daddy was not happy when he realized this! I think I might have lost some points to the naughty list during this incident! I'm so sorry!
But if you can look beyond this incident, here is the rest of my wish-list:
  • Chicken Jerky
  • Dingo Chicken Wrapped Bones
  • Squeaky Football Toy
  • Cozy Plush Bed
  • Lots of YUMMY Food to Eat
  • ----MOST IMPORTANTLY----Joy to ALL and Good Health to EVERYONE!!!
Thank you for reading my Pawliday Letter!
Hugs,

Coco Puff

Dinner is Late....where's dinner?

We spent the day here at Mama's house....and my dinner was served late! I normally have dinner by 5:30pm, as soon as Uncle Gary gets home from work! I'm on a schedule here, where's the food????!!!!!I know my din din is in that refrigerator....will someone get it for me? Its already 5:35pm!
Mama!!!!!....put that camera down and get me some dinner! I'm hungry!
Daddy finally heard me and asked me to take a bow before dinner! I did as told!
So he went to get me some grub! I'd like double of my usual please!!!!
This is what my Mama calls my "after dinner coma" face.....I thought I was posing cute!

Uninvited Guest!

Sorry.....LONG TIME NO BLOG!!!! My Mama has been slacking!At any rate....it has been one HOT Spring and we have gotten an uninvited guest!

Who is this guest you might ask...her name is Kitty....that is because she is a stray that decided to show up at our front door. I guess she knew that Daddy and Uncle Gary are SUCKERS for feeding the hungry!I'm not too much of a fan of hers! She knows how to "bat" at my face. Although I think that it is quite funny to see her slap Susie in the face! I don't much like it when she thinks my tail is a cat toy when I'm wagging!
Since her arrival, I've had to share my bed and blanket...she's definitely made herself at home. She came wearing a flea collar, so we thought she may have been a missing pet, but when Daddy and Uncle Gary posted signs and listed her on Craigslist, no one has claimed her. I hope we are not stuck with her! Look at her....this was her stance before she batted me again! That stinker!

Hugs,
CoCo

Spaghetti Night!!!

The bowl on the top is Mama's Spaghetti Dinner....the bowl on the bottom is my portion of Spaghetti dinner!I do not really get the "real" human spaghetti dinner. I didn't get to have the real sauce with all the flavors and seasonings. Instead...Mama gave me some raw ground beef with a spaghetti noodle. She didn't want me to feel left out!
Even though it wasn't the real thing....it was super yummy! Thank you Mama!!!! I will look forward to the next Spaghetti night!

Hugs,

Allergy Meds for Me!

Today, my Mama came by my house and gave me a surprise visit. She doesn't normally visit on Mondays! Then she told me we are going for a ride! Here I am, riding shotgun in Mama's car!
I thought, "well geez...its about time lady, you haven't taken me anywhere in forever!" I was so excited to be going for a ride...."where are we going Mama? Are we going to the Doggy Park?" It sure did look and seem like we were going to the park....I saw a pup walking with their human!But instead, look where we ended up....at Love Pet Hospital....my Vet! YUCK!
Why are we at the Vet's you might ask...well, its because it is Spring and I've developed a serious Allergy with Live Oak pollen, and I've been itchy and scratchy for the last week. I've been licking, scratching, biting, gnawing, rolling and anything else that may relieve the itch around the clock. I've been keeping Daddy up at night because I've been too busy relieving my discomfort. As you all may recall, the same thing happened to me last year! Spring is here and I'm itchy and scratchy! So finally Mama insisted I get looked at! Here I am waiting for the Vet Tech!
First, came the weigh in. I don't usually like this part. In the past it had always meant that a diet would follow!

But lucky for me, this time I weighed in at 21.6 lbs. That is 0.2 lbs less than last November! Hurray for CoCo Puff...no diet for me!!!!
This is what I looked like when the actual Vet came in. I know she meant business. I don't know if hiding under the chair will help disguise me...hopefully she won't see me!
As usual, Dr. Davenport is not so bad. She actually is a total cuddle bug and always gives me lots of hugs and kisses. She makes sure I'm calm and comfortable before she looks me over!
It turned out, I was given an Allergy Shot to help relieve the itchiness and was prescribed 1/4 of a Zyrtec for future irritations. Yes...the human kind. We learned today that it is okay to give pups Zyrtec and Benadryl. It is 1/2 Zyrtec or 3/4 teaspoon of Benadryl for every 20lbs of dog. So to temporarily relieve allergies, I will be taking the same meds as my Daddy!

The Allergy Shot was a form of steroid shot. The side effects are: increase thirst, which leads to increased appetite, which leads to increase peeing and pooing! Excessive allergy shots can lead to muscular damage and liver problems, so a homeopathic method is recommended for pups that are highly allergic year round. Hopefully I'll not need anymore than this one shot!

Also, since I was excessively going after my tail, my Vet suggested that that was a sign that I needed my Anal Glands extracted....so needless to say, that was taken care of too. All in all, it was not a fun car ride, but I've gotten relief! Thanks Mama!

When we got back home, Mama gave me a whole cookie for being so good! I ate the whole thing! Yum!
Happy Spring Everyone....hopefully no more itchy and scratchiness!
