Day 12
So, I decided to sleep outside again and I found a spot in the rocks that was pretty comfortable. Mom checked on me and thought that the rocks looked uncomfortable. She got all freaked out because I was laying on my incision and tried to trick me with cat food to get up, but I was SOOO sleepy and just wanted to be left alone. I stayed there all night, but I did get up in the morning and come inside for breakfast. I felt really good this morning, more like I did before my leg started hurting. Mom says she’s going to give me less pills. I’m ok with that because I don’t have that much pain anymore. Mom left me like she always does in the mornings so I did what I always do, I went out the dog door so I could see her truck and stare at her with my big, sad eyes to make her feel terrible and guilty for leaving me. For some reason, she seemed so happy that I did that. Humans confuse me.
Haley was sleeping and I forgot she was here, so that made up for mom leaving. Haley gets down on the floor and plays with me. She left later on, but I needed to sleep some more. When mom got home, I was sleeping guess where? In the ROCKS. I jumped up (well “jumped” might be exaggerating a bit) and came inside for dinner. My tummy is better and I feel like eating more now. Mom thinks she doesn’t have to put the wet food in it anymore, but I disagree. I just look at her until she does it. Works every time!
After I ate we went to the grassy spot again so I could show off my running to Haley. Here’s a video. I was going pretty good until the cat tried to knock me down. I really don’t like the cat. I did get tired after a bit and needed to lay down. I make sure mom knows when I need to rest- I just sit down.
Mom said she needed to go to sleep early so I slept in her room for awhile. I got up later and went outside to sleep. Mom is still worried I can’t do the stairs without help, so she followed me. I showed her it’s ok, so maybe she will sleep better.
