Mitch's Big Boy Surgery

The vet's office called yesterday afternoon and told dad that Mitch couldn't have breakfast this morning before his neutering surgery- only a small drink of water. Mitch wasn't too happy with that news at all but he did as he was told like the good little boy that he is!
Dad also asked about him coming home the day of his surgery (today) and they said that we could call around 3PM and as long as we kept him quiet and things went as expected he could come home early! This should be real interesting - keeping Mitch quiet! Yea right!
Dad couldn't wait to share that news with Mitch! Did you hear that Mitch - you can sleep in your own bed tonight! See how happy he is!
We did our two mile walkie this morning and Mitch did his business and that made mom very happy. She didn't want him uncomfortable with this problem too!
After our walk, mom and Mitch got in the car and off they went! Mom did ask about the lampshade and the people at the animal hospital said that a lot of dogs don't need to wear them so maybe Mitch will be one of the lucky ones!
We've been keeping busy in the yard with weeding and planting but it's a bit more quiet than usual. We came in to make tuna for lunch and - no Mitch to help eat me eat celery and walnuts! Now I'm depressed!
I'm going to wait right here for you to return this afternoon little brother! I thought it would be fun to be queen for a day once again and to pretend I was the "only" child but I was wrong. I miss you!

Hurry home! I'll be waiting!

Love ya lots,

Maggie

  3. Hi, Maggie.
    You'll see Mitch is going to be fine and at home very soon, so you will take care of him while he recovers from his surgery.

  21. I haven't had to wear a lampshade on my head! Those are horrible! Luckily I was good when I got snipped, or whatever you call it for a girl doggie.
