What did your pet(s) do today?

GeorgiaMa'am · 12-22-2017, 07:17 PM

Tonight Tiny Dog is spending her first night away from home in a boarding facility at her vet's. I'm afraid she will be sad and scared. She's 11 years old, and had other homes briefly before she came to my house, but that was a long time ago. The vet was literally my only option if I was going to spend Christmas with my family this year, because my dog sitter's father is in the hospital and they think he will die soon.

Tiny Dog doesn't like going to the vet. When she got out the car today and realized where we were, she dug her heels in. She behaved, but she was very clingy, and wouldn't stop looking out the office window.

The vet tech who came to fetch her and take her to the kennel was an adorable little butch, though. It makes me feel slightly better, but unfortunately I don't think it will matter to Tiny Dog. I hope she doesn't start thinking I'm not coming back. I hope she's not sad and confused. Four days is a long time for a doggie alone in a strange place with strange people and strange animals.

Diva Kitty is fine by herself at home, which she will enjoy greatly for the first day or two. Then she'll get a little nervous, and punish me when I get home. But she will be fine, and at least she's in her own home.

My dog and I had quite a scare this morning. I went to let him out first thing early this morning. It was about -11 out. I turned around to put food in his bowl and put some out for the cats. I turned back around to check him, like, a minute later, and he had collapsed in the snow. He couldn't walk because he was too cold. He was trying to get up and his legs were falling out from under him and he flopped back into the snow. I raced out in my pajamas and slippers and half carried him back in. (100 lb lab/pit mix) He was so scared and so was I...

For those inquiring: My dog is just fine now. Thank you. He was outside for under 90 seconds when this happened. He was brought in and warmed with blankets, given treats, and tucked into bed. I was worried he would be afraid to go out again but we waited until later when it was a grand high of 4 degrees and he went back out and was fine- though I made him come back in immediately.

Glad your pup is fine, easy.

Currently, the lil monsters are tearing up the house whilst chasing one another in the feline 500.

They are trying to be nice and think you need help hunting. Pets haven't grasped the concept of grocery stores yet.

Currently the lil buggers are trying to sneak climbs onto the coffee table.

Tiny Dog made a mess in the driveway today. It is snowing here, and to be honest, she can't tell where the driveway ends and the yard begins. Also, the wind chill is something like -2, and she just wanted to be done pooping and get back in the house.

So I get to go out in -2 wind chill and clean poop off the driveway. Better to do it now than wait until the snow melts and I can't see where it is.
