lyndon baines

Tomorrow is the big day… Lyndon finally gets his stitches removed.  I’m hoping that once the cone is finally gone that he will be a bit more comfortable and not quite so whiny.  It has been so difficult listening to him crying and not being able to do anything about it. 

Halloween 2008

The last couple days have been pretty even keel.  We did have one little hiccups, though.  The day before last I had Lyndon in my room.  I stepped out to put some towels away and when I went back in, Lyndon was nowhere to be found.  Of course, being Lyndon, when my back was turned he saw the perfect opportunity to do something naughty.  He went all the way down to the living room, a whole 20 steps down.  I was both mad at him and proud of him at the same time.  Still, even without the stitches he won’t be allowed to do that again without my assistance… at least not until he’s gotten the hang of it.  We got him a ruffwear harness, so tomorrow he gets his fitting and first real stair lesson.

Happy Family

My baby is doing super today.  Earlier he was pseudo-running in the backyard, I even had to stop him from trying to get into the fence fight that the other dogs were having with the neighbor dogs.  Lyndon is the best little fence fighter on the block.  He’s run along the fences barking at and chasing dogs on the other sides that he has displaced all of the rocks we had lining the fences.  It was nice to see him wanting to go back to his old game, but I didn’t want him to hurt himself. 

My other dogs are handling the sitution a bit better since they have been allowed to go in and out of the family room at will.  Scampers still tries to get Lyndon’s doggie bed, though.  We’re all very excited for tomorrow, so things can go back to (at least somewhat) normal.
