Another visit to another doctor

Today was an interesting day...
I've been having a really hard time getting up in the mornings because last week mom and I had lots of snow days. This week mom's gone back to school which means I have to get up early. I haven't been too happy about it but it hasn't been too bad because as soon as Mom and Dad go to work, I go back to bed :) Don't tell them though....they tell me I need to stay awake during the day so I'm not crazy at night when it is bedtime!
Today when mom woke me up I thought it was going to be another normal school day. Well it wasn't. Dad took me to see another doctor. I was really excited when we got there because there were lots of other dogs to play with but for some reason they acted like they didn't feel good and didn't want to play. I barked at them and tried to talk to them but they just ignored me. The ladies in the waiting room all talked about how cute I was and I pranced in front of them so they'd think I was cool! Then Dad and I went in another room to talk to a new doctor friend. He seemed really nice although I still like my doctor better. He felt around on my knees and watched me walk around and then started talking to Dad about "my surgery". He told my Dad that I would come in and they'd give me some medicine that would make me take a long nap and then they'd start to fix my leg. Now Mom and Dad have talked about this surgery thing but this doctor actually showed Dad and me the plates and pins that he was going to put in my leg. I didn't like the sound or look of this so I started walking around the best I could without limping so they could see that I DID NOT need the surgery but they didn't believe me. The doctor gave me a scratch and shook Dad's hand and said he'd see me tomorrow. We left the doctor's office and Dad gave me a love and told me that I'd be just fine and that the doctor and nurses would take good care of me. I sure hope so!!! I've spent my evening playing outside and lounging around with Mom and Dad. I'm a little nervous about my surgery tomorrow but if it makes my leg stop hurting it will be alright. Mom and Dad told me tonight that I'd have to spend the night at the hospital. I sure hope they have good food and soft blankets to sleep on. Since I'll be at the hospital and they won't let me take mom's laptop I'll have to have them update tomorrow night! :)

Oh and while I'm writing to you, my friend willie is going to the doctor tomorrow to to have his teeth cleaned and has to take a nap while he's there. Can you keep him in your thoughts while he's there? My friend Macey is also having surgery tomorrow. She has a sore on her paw that she has to get removed and she has to go see the doctor and take a nap. Can you keep her in your thoughts as well?

Man there are a lot of dogs taking long naps like me tomorrow!!! At least I'm not alone :)

Talk to you all on Friday!!!!!

Me playing in my old favorite bed. I dug and dug in it until I got it just the way I wanted it but then Mom and Dad threw it away....I still don't know why?!

Me with my hunting vest on in St. James during hunting season. Dad made me wear this silly thing because he was afraid a silly hunter would think I was a deer. I thought it was kinda silly but it was better than being chained up all weekend!
