Heh... I thought you guys needed rain! No pleasin’ some people.

We had to take Barkley in to the vet this morning when they opened. He woke up bellering every time he moved. It was pitiful. I thought his foot was asleep or something and we tried to get him to walk it off but he didn’t get better so we loaded him up.

Vet said he probably pinched a nerve or pulled a muscle in his neck, and that’s causing it to radiate down his leg and look like it’s the leg that hurts.

It’s a pitiful thing, he bellers if you try to move him.

Maybe it was playing with Cisco, Maybe it was jumping up on the couch... Maybe he just slept on it wrong.

He’s on Morphine and muscle relaxers and a Rimadyl. And he’s on crate rest. If he doesn’t get better by monday she’ll take xrays.

Beagle sleeping next to a full food dish. Never thought I'd see that.

No, that was a comment on what it looked like your cats were thinkin'. It's clear as a bell here and quite nice.

That's strange about Barkley. Those dogs are bound and determined to keep you in the poorhouse I think.
