Got a new puppy!

I think the cast weighs more then he does.

[Dogstar]

Awwwww, you are taking good care of him and he will reward you with many years of fun!

[hotforscott]

Thanks. I know he'll pull through and be as healthy as ever.

[Dogstar]

Btw, it's really great to have you back here!!!

[hotforscott]

How sweet, thanks. It's good to be back.

Ajax has had a good day. He hasn't whined when walking, and he's eating just fine. He can take the cast off Tuesday so it will probably take some getting used to once he realizes he can bend it, but he's a little trooper. He's done well with the house training also. I have baby gates up and visquine down to potty train, and I think he is getting the hang of it. Much easier then potty training a child. MUCH!

[Dogstar]

Oh, that's great, Carrie! I'm so happy for you!

[hotforscott]

I just gave him his meds. He was whining a little this morning. I am not sure if it's from pain, or just because he's a puppy. I am glad he is doing better.

The kids go to their dads at 5pm today, and my sister is coming to stay for a night on her way to Memphis to try out for American Idol. We are supposed to fry fish and hush puppies and stuff tonight. It's funny, because my brother stayed here a few months ago on his way to Memphis to try out for College Jeopardy. Neither are married or have children so they are ALWAYS doing things like that. I think it's pretty cool.

I wish her luck.

[Dogstar]

Hahaha, that's pretty cool, Carrie! We had a guy at work who won $32,000 on Who Wants to be a Millionaire. He got a lot of crap for the question he missed because we all work at a newspaper and it was a publishing question, D'OH! But, hell, I would have taken $32,000 any day. That would be sweet! I wish your sister luck, Carrie!

Ajax wiggled his little cast off today, but he seems to be doing really good. He was very playful today. I am so glad he is getting back to being a normal puppy.

[Dogstar]

Oh, that's so good to hear, Carrie. I'm sure all your TLC was a huge help!

[hotforscott]

He is a little cutie. Well worth the effort. Craig has mentioned a couple of time that Ajax "needs a friend". That scares me a little bit, because I want to go back to work soon, and NOT take on ANOTHER puppy right now. He just says that they will get along better if they grow up together, but I change the subject everytime that comes up.

[Dogstar]

LOL...I have two cats now. My other cat, Darryl, had to be put down last year , and she was an awesome cat. I got two from a woman at work who'd found a pregnant stray. They are really cute, but sooo much bigger than Darryl ever was, LOL...Their father must have been huge, because the mother is really small.

[hotforscott]

I am sorry to hear about your cat having to be put down. I know I would just be devastated if something happened to Ajax. That's why I was so glad he pulled through all of this mess okay. He was crackin' us up yesterday. A very hyper, comical dog. It was good to see him actually acting like a puppy. He actually barked. This is the age that they should have sold him, not the age he was before.

[Dogstar]

THanks, Carrie. It was really awful. I had her for 16 years, so she was like part of my family. I still miss her, but the two new ones are so cute, too. One is a lot like Darryl and loves to sit on my lap. Darryl was a big-time lap cat. Plus, they play with her old toys, which is cool.
