A VERY HAPPY SHIH TZU

Today is the day I was supposed to go back to the Vet to check the lump on my right hip.  Momi gave me a good brushing today and felt all over  my body but could not find a lump anywhere.  YEAH!  That is good news.  So I will not be going to the Vet today.  I guess it was like the Vet said... just a lump from an injection site.


This is my Happy Face.

I LOVE THE BEACH

Had a great time at the beach with my Momi.  We go there often because it is the closest campground to where we live.  Here are some photos of me taken on this trip.

Chillin' on the beach.  The cool, wet sand feels good on my belly.  It's really hot today and not much of a breeze.

I love to smell the sand.  So many smells... so little time.

Don't know why but smelling sand always makes me want to potty.  Momi will bury it when I'm done.

This is our setup near the bathhouse.  I really like my new red trailer.  It's fun to ride in.  I get tired if I walk too far especially in this heat.



This is a stray dog that came on the beach while we were there.  Momi called the office to report it but no one came to get it.  Eventually, it walked down the beach until we couldn't see it anymore.  I feel sorry for the doggie.  He must have been thirsty and hungry and had no one to love him.  How sad.  Momi was worried that he would attack me so she held me close till he was out of sight.  I barked at him when he got close to us but I don't think he was mean.  He just kept walking away.  I think he could sense our fear.

I'm back home now and enjoying my walks in the neighborhood with my doggie friend Prince. 




I have a good life.

AT THE BEACH

Yes, I'm at the beach again.  Momi said we would stay a week.  YEAH!!!

When Momi took me for a walk this afternoon I led the way.  I remember how to get to the crossover and then to the beach.   When I see the water I get so excited.  Momi let me go in the water just a little then we walked far away down the beach.

There was no one on the beach so Momi took my leash off.  I am very brave and didn't walk next to my Momi.  I like to walk a little ways from her but I do keep up.  Sometimes Momi calls me to come to her and I do. 

I like to smell everything that is on the beach.  I get my face real dirty with sand but I don't care.  When I get back to the motorhome I get in the pool and wash off the sand before going inside.

I love the beach.

Here is an example of how dirty I get.

VET VISIT

I went to the Vet today for some shots that were due and to show her a large lump my Momi found on my right hip.   She said that it was probably a cyst and the only way to know for sure was to biopsy it.  Then the Vet measured it and said that she wanted to see me again in one month.  It doesn't hurt me and I walk alright so I don't think it is anything to worry about but my Momi is scared it might be a tumor.  We will all have to wait and see.

The good news is that I lost a pound.   On every visit to the Vet we find out that I have gained weight - so my Momi cuts down on my meals and increases my walking.  Now that I have lost some maybe my meals won't be cut down anymore.  I sure hope so. 

Gotta go now.  It's time to play fetch in the back yard with my Momi.
