Today has been a rather a strange day for my boy. I haven't seen any clots, and his breathing seems to be fine, but I know he just doesn't feel well.

He's been sleeping so much and doesn't care much about going out. He's ignored the puppy all together today, and the only time he seemed to have any energy at all was when he was barking. As aggravating as his loud and strong his bark is... I'm wishing now that he would bark again for me. He hasn't barked for almost three or four hours, and with the doors and windows open... that's not like him.

He was laying on his side for the longest time, and I sat down with him. He barely even opened his eyes while I was petting him.... and, as I pet him, Katie came up and licked him... he didn't budge. My poor guy. How I wish every day could be a good one for him. I just don't know how to handle all of this. I mean, I know (or at least I'm praying) that tomorrow will be a better day for him, but just getting through today is hell.

Poor Katie has been wanting to play... with anyone. Brandon spent the night here last night, and she was in her glory. After he went home though, the playing was cut down considerably since Mike isn't feeling well enough to play, and I've been having problems with my leg, and my blood pressure has been dropping dangerously low the last three days. That poor little girl... I owe her an entire day of play. I promised her I'd make it up to her.


Hey Jennifer... Thanks for posting. I don't think Katie has a uti... I think she just needs me to watch her a bit closer. She does tell me when she has to go, so that's no problem, but I think when she gets bored is when she decides to wander and pee. I think because she's so hyper, she just needs more exercise to wear her out some. I mean.. we play and she gets plenty of exercise, but she's got so much energy, she needs more than the average pup. She was 7 months old on the 7th of April. She's going to be spayed on the 29th, so I'm thinking that might make a difference too. I hope so, because other than that (and her relentless energy :-) she's a great pup.

Well.. I'm gonna get going. I pray everyone is doing well. By the way... I've taken pictures of both the kids. As soon as I get them developed, I'll put them up here.

God Bless You All
