Yeah, I think I am really weird about animals. I probably project a lot of my person shit onto them. Who knows where the heck it comes from.
I also didn't realize that cowboys/girls were bow legged. Or that it would be due to riding a horse a lot (when young, I suppose?). I actually thought that was a myth and that the only way a person could become bow legged was being born that way. Is that incorrect?
I hope Oliver can avoid this one, and not seize.

Once the ear infections are taken care of, we will move onto dental issues. He can't go under until we have those cleared up as it's likely he won't react well to it.
Why would you be sad about the bowlegged part? Gidget was adorable and she'd worn them from a few weeks old so she grew around them. Do you feel sad when you see a cowboy/cowgirl walk? They are bowlegged because of their lifestyles as well.
Wearing the doggie pants was her choice. She was perfectly potty trained to go outside and let us know when she had to go but she chose to get our attention, stand right in front of the door and piss. Multiple times. As soon as we put the pants back on her, she was cool.
I think she liked the routine of her coming to us, us chasing her down to get them off, all the while talking to Brodie and chastising her for wiggling so much and then the mad dash for the door. It was playtime for her.
You get sad about interesting things. You are a strange duck, my friend.
Today is a progression of yesterday for Oliver. I'm certain he's feeling 'twingey' aka close to a seizure. He isolates himself, which is something that is sad. Smart but sad. Sometimes he can stave it off long enough for it to pass and for him not to have one, which is good, so I give him as much space and time as he needs.
