All is Good in The Neighborhood

So the other day was just what I said it was, a scare. Super scary to be exact. His blood results came back normal so my baby is fine. He must of just gotten into something he shouldn't have. Since he hadn't had breakfast yet, he upchucked nothing and that probably really wore him out. I heard sometimes dogs get really winded when they vomit too hard. Either way yesterday he was fine. I took him to the dog park and he wanted to play with all the big doggies, but he's too little yet, so I leave him in the 30lbs and under. He would run around if he had another dog to play with but the little dogs rarely come to the dog park. He likes to sniff and playfully growl at the big dogs when they come up to the fence. When he's bigger I'll let him go over there and play, but for now he will just have to wait a little longer. What an interesting week. I hope everyone else had a good one.
I feel much better thanks for everyone who was concerned.

Morning Scare

So I know it's been awhile since I've written a post, but I've been pretty busy trying to enjoy the last few days of summer and working. I was going to write one last night, but promptly fell asleep after some time in the sun. All apologies aside, I finally have some news to write about. This morning after getting up and taking Finnley out to do his business... we were walking around the house.  All of a sudden he takes off down the hallway and runs under a chair. We thought he was just hiding from us, then he ran behind the couch and started vomiting. Promptly after vomiting he fell over and tensed up. It was like he almost passed out. I don't know if he just got super winded from vomiting so hard or dizzy or whatever. I was so scared and freaked out that I immediately called the vet and they squeezed in an appointment. He was acting fine after he got up and went to the vet. They said he looked normal, but they wanted to take some blood work just to be safe. I'm all about being safe rather than sorry. After an experience with my parent's dog, I wanted to double check... TRIPLE check everything :P I'm just a worried mommy I guess. I can't imagine what it would be like to have human children... because that was scary stuff for me to experience with a fur baby.
Poor little guy. He had quite the morning and tuckered himself out.


Any way, he seems fine now. I'll know more tomorrow or Friday on the blood. Keep your fingers crossed that there isn't anything seriously wrong.
