 My Big Boy!
Took Higgins to the new vet this morning.....and I like her a lot. He had his lil anal glands pressed and we made an appointment to have him neutered on June 17th. They weighed him and he has gained a WHOLE POUND this month and is now up to FIVE pounds at five and a half months. Gonna be big like his mom! He runs all day long, so he is pure muscle! And testosterone! He wasn't happy at the vets, but then a cute little Malti-poo came in and he decided that the vets was a great place to meet girls! And cats! And mark the bushes outside! He had a ball!
I also gave him a bath before we went to the vet this morning. In the kitchen sink. I got wetter than he did! Does NOT like baths any more, thank you very much.
Oh, just to put this out there......We bought a 7 month supply of Advantix for both dogs. This vet says that she likes the Advantix better than Frontline (which we have always used on Pogo) because it keeps the ticks from biting. With Frontline, the tick bites into the dog and it takes quite awhile for it to die and drop off. With Advantix, they drop off right away and never even bite the dog, she says. Also, the mosquito protection that Advantix supplies is superior in her opinion. Higgins has been using Advantix and so far, so good.
It's SUNNY here today! Finally!! So I am going to douse myself with mosquito repellant and go out and enjoy it!
Hope it's sunny wherever you are!
Hugs,
