second morning with my NICKIE
Wednesday, May 23rd, 2007uh-oh, i’ve only got 10 minutes to write. this morning was lovely. nickie and i slept in until 8am. we had to wake up because i had a periodontist appointment. they took imprints of my mouth and bite for the temporary flippers.
NICKIE got out of bed first. i saw her poor old bones trying to keep her body up. she has a tendency to tip to the left. i saw her tipping after walking about one foot away, saw her stop and when i saw a puddle forming, i jumped out of bed and carried her to her pee pee pad…. all the while trailing her pee to the pad.
she didn’t get a good girl, nor did she get a treat. she did last night though because when i carried her to it before going to bed, she did her number 1 business. such a good girl!
i realized that since she peed in the same section yesterday and today, it must be where i should probably put her pee pee pad. she looked like she has a hard time walking in the morning. her muscles probably need stretching. we shall see what happens tomorrow morning.
we went downstairs for breakfast. i put her out in the balcony JUST INCASE. i was soo happy that she did the second morning business outside! same area too!! doggie treat for that one.
i left her out while i went to the doctor.
bought her a flat laying pad for under my desk so it’s easier for her to fall on when she’s trying to sit down. since she can’t lower herself, she has to kinda fall on her butt.
OOOOPS… gotta go .. i’ll finish soon and my FRENCHIE just got home from his dinner with his aunts.
