A momma has to do what a momma has to do...

This is SO embarrassing. First I gets a bad haircut...

Then I get dressed up like a sissy-girl in one of momma's shirts

All 'cause I was 'kissing' my boo-boos too much an' momma said she had to hide 'em so they'd get betters

Guess I'll just sleep this off on my soft 'n fluffy ruffled pillow. Uhm, cur-ection momma's soft 'n fluffy ruffled pillow.

Note from the momma: Scout is healing nicely and enjoying his medication-laced hot dogs and cheese slices. He had a very rough first night at home. That made for a very rough night for me 'cause I couldn't take away his discomfort. He's back to his ol' self now and will go for a post operative check-up on Tuesday. Two of my grandsons spent the weekend with us making Scout literally glow with happiness. Little boys and lots of cuddles and extra snacks will do it every time!

Sheila and Bob said...: Scout, you will feel better, and as far as the way you look, if anyone gives you problems I (Hamish) will take care of it for you.
Sophie had the same problem with her torn ACL & torn meniscus surgery. She is still wearing the cone of shame and her Mom slept many nights with her on the floor to comfort her.
You will be better in no time.

I am so glad to hear that you're doing better! It's good to have lots of attention -- I think that helps you to feel better more than anything else!

bbes tribe said...: Scout, we are VERY glad to hear you are healing well and that the lumps were just fatty things. Those scars will heal before you know it and your hairs will grow back. No one will ever know about the haircut after awhile.

A MUST read for everyone

Friendship isn't about who you have known the longest, but about who came and never left your side~unknown

Dominique Annabelle

The last words of a very intelligent dog

Before I go, I just want to remind all you pups and kitties to always have plenty of love for your humans even if they might be grumpy. Sometimes they get caught up in all sorts of things and take us for granted. That doesn't mean they don't love and need us. Also you humans, remember why you have us around. If you are feeling stressed out, pet us. It's been proven to lower your blood pressure. Also keep lots of treats handy. And for everyone, enjoy life. Always take time for walks, frisbee and CAR RIDES.

And one last thing for you humans. If you are considering adding another dog to your home, think about giving one of older dogs a chance. We don't chew up your shoes, pee inside (well, not unless we really can't help it) or need lots of training. Plus you will have a very loyal friend for the rest of our lives. ~Domi, the therapy dog, 1996-2009

Even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from the master's table." - Matt 15:27

I have a firm belief that each and every dog has been placed on earth as a gift from Heaven. Sadly, not all dogs have the opportunity to be as treasured as they deserve. The breadth of what dogs can do, and have done, for mankind is astounding - breathtaking. We owe them great debt and we owe God our resounding - THANK YOU! M.Sullivan

The House Dog's Grave by Robinson Jeffers (1887-1962) I've changed my ways a little; I cannot now Run with you in the evenings along the shore, Except in a kind of dream; and you, If you dream a moment, You see me there. So leave awhile the paw-marks on the front door Where I used to scratch to go out or in, And you'd soon open; leave on the kitchen floor The marks of my drinking-pan. I cannot lie by your fire as I used to do On the warm stone, Nor at the foot of your bed; no, All the nights through I lie alone. But your kind thought has laid me less than six feet Outside your window where firelight so often plays, And where you sit to read‚ And I fear often grieving for me‚ Every night your lamplight lies on my place. You, man and woman, live so long, it is hard To think of you ever dying. A little dog would get tired, living so long. I hope that when you are lying Under the ground like me your lives will appear As good and joyful as mine. No, dears, that's too much hope: You are not so well cared for as I have been. And never have known the passionate undivided Fidelities that I knew. Your minds are perhaps too active, too many-sided... But to me you were true. You were never masters, but friends. I was your friend. I loved you well, and was loved. Deep love endures To the end and far past the end. If this is my end, I am not lonely. I am not afraid. I am still yours.
