My delicate condition meant a trip to the V-E-T! Warning: this post rated PG13!

[Dr. Beau Leaky]

If you are a puppy pupper, you must have your hooman with you to read this!

AHEM . . .

I seems that even though I appear to be in good health, I have a gastro-intestinal issue.  That is, er, I seem to issue forth before my intestines have had a chance to firm things up.  Oh, He11's bells, I've got the squirts!

In fact I have had the squirts since Auntie Karen left was in Europe.  She was very perplexed, because I seem to be very happy and none of the other puppers here have the squirts.  So yesterday she took me to the V-E-T.

I should have known things weren't going well when that lady tech started coming at me with a thermometer.  I gave her a warning snap at her face -- didn't she know better than to approach a dog head on?   She took umbrage and the next thing I know Auntie Karen's trying to put the smallest muzzle in Baltimore on my snout.  Auntie Karen asks for a larger size and the tech tells her to keep trying.  Finally Auntie Karen stops and say, "Get a larger muzzle."  The tech complies and I am rendered biteless.

And then the humiliation just gets worse.  I am poked and prodded, and the other lady with the thingie around her neck puts it on my chest and then on my tummy.  THEN she squeezes me like a tube of toothpaste!  Of course, I haven't eaten that morning, so I come up empty.  So then what does she do?  Puts a finger up my tush!!!!  Where did she get her degree, Marat/Sade university?  I would have gotten off scott free, except for one tiny little worm the vet sees crawling out of my derriere.

So now the entire Herd is on dewormer.  Auntie Karen had to send in a stool sample this morning.  Not pleasant, I can assure you. 

You're telling me!

Thank you, Auntie Karen, that's enough from YOU!  We get the vanilla yogurt for two more days . . .

(Shhhh!  With dewormer medicine in it!)

. . . repeat in three weeks and again in three months.

As long as we get vanilla yogurt sundaes, I don't care if you have baracudas in your butt!

Thank you for your selflessness, Merlin.  Now shut up!

Mr. Leaky, you should have met Miss Dolly.  The one AND only time she bit her mommy (that would be me) was when the white coat put the thermometer thingy up her hiney.  She got me good on the thumb.  Terribly contrite afterward though. 

So it's worms is it?  I hope the meds help get rid of those yucky things.  I was going to suggest a little pumpkin to firm up the poos but it looks like you've got things in paw.  Hope all of youse feel way better real soon.

Not to worry, Patches, I revealed to them my "faux" status, Bernese Mountain dog and Italian greyhound.  The dachsie reputation is safe!

Where did she get her degree, Marat/Sade university?

Dear Dr. Beau the Violated,

I apologize for my mom, who is laffing and laffing at this right now.  Doesn't she know your wit is masking A TERRIBLE TRAUMA?!

I am also sorry you had to go to the V-E-T at all.  I have decided I do not like to go to there myself so I pooped on the place and hopefully I am banned.   :xfinger:   But back to you - I hope you enjoy your yogurt and there are no baracudas in your butt because that does not sound like something that should be happening to a Dachshund ideally.

xoxo,
SKOOTR
