Good News!


We got a call from Animal Emergency Service hospital today, and Katie's adrenal gland tests were normal. That means she doesn't have Addison's Disease. She seems to be a bit perkier every day. This morning, Daddy took Katie and Chloe outside around 5:30am. He heard rustling in the bushes, and wouldn't you know, the bunny rabbit ran out, and scooted under the fence into the neighbor's yard. Katie chased the rabbit!

When Aunt Pat had us both out a little later in the morning, Katie barked and jumped on me when Aunt Pat threw the ball for me to fetch. Katie hasn't done that in a while! We've also noticed that she's playing more with her toys, and her appetite is good. We're very relieved with Katie's progress, but Chloe and I are still staying close.

Aunt Pat loves to crochet and knit. She's even got a separate blog about her projects. She needs to post an update, but she's been focused on us, and she's been busy with some projects, she hasn't done it in a while. Aunt Pat likes to download free patterns from yarn companies on the web. Usually the patterns are for afghans, sweaters and baby stuff. Strictly for humans. But, I'm getting a little worried. Today, she got an email from Coats & Clark, and there were links to a couple of patterns for dogs! I wouldn't be worried if the patterns were for dog beds or a nice blanket. No, the patterns were for two Halloween costumes- a witch and a bee! Now, they might look cute on Katie or Chloe, but I'm a little too big to dress up on Halloween. I'm not against trick-or-treat. I already sort of do that when I bark for a biskee. I just don't need to dress up. Aunt Pat hasn't printed the patterns out, so I guess we're off the hook for now.

We all hope Aunt Allie had a nice first day of school today!
