Wet Dog Blog

So upon picking up Pup on Tuesday, the girl seemed to be about 10 pounds thinner, hyper-activity out the yang and injuries in plethora. Being the social eater she has been since we acquired her at 7 weeks, we suspect she didn't eat much while we were away. They must have kept her in a run for the entire two weeks without any social interaction with people, let alone other dogs, which is why she was so hyper. And she came home with a bloody scrape on the top of her nose (which if you look close, you can see but has since healed), and two chew spots on both front paws. Rob thinks I'm over-reacting, but this is the last time I take my girl to that place. It's always strange, bringing her home from the kennel. She will sleep for HOURS upon her return home. She will also both poop AND pee on her walks (for most dog owners, you will understand how incredible that is). Rob likes to call it the Play-Dough Barbershop effect. Meaning, of course, poop just keeps on coming out, much like the disgusting heads you could buy as children and "cut and style hair" like a real barber while Play-Dough comes squirting out... I'm sure you get the picture. To celebrate her return home, Maddy had a bath today. What a sweetie.

Ahh, all clean and doggy fresh.
My pets are like kids, so I'd be all over that kennel too.
