Monday, June 29, 2015. The next morning, I was stunned to see a wide awake, tail wagging Tulla who was now missing all her surgical dressings (being helpful, she removed them herself! I’m sorry that I have no photos of the first days at home. I have a few blurry shots from my phone, but that is about it. I will try to do better! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Border Collie Mom: June 2013
http://bordercolliemom.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 19, 2013. Dogs and Heat. It's that time again. As the temperature began warming up at the dog show, I once again saw all the people dragging out the fans for their crates. And once again I become frustrated about this situation and want to lecture everyone on fans, dogs, and physics. So I will take out my frustration on you. I'll start with the physics. Fans do not cool. What fans do is create a “wind chill”. On people, the moving air evaporates sweat, and eliminates body heat. There is a...

Border Collie Mom: Crate Rest Hump Day and Staple Removal
http://bordercolliemom.blogspot.com/2015/07/crate-rest-hump-day-and-staple-removal.html
Sunday, July 12, 2015. Crate Rest Hump Day and Staple Removal. I began writing about Tulla’s DPO to give other people who are facing the same experience information about what to expect. In the weeks leading up to the surgery, I scoured the internet for anyone who could provide a clue of what to expect. And now that we made it through week two, I understand why no one wrote about it. There really is nothing to tell. From the first days she could walk and squat to potty. Once we get that report, we will b...

Border Collie Mom: April 2012
http://bordercolliemom.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 29, 2012. A few weeks ago we were at a trial that had both obedience and agility and the lady in the next stall had explosive diarrhea. When she left without washing, and I 'reminded' her, she said "Oh, I can't wash my hands- I'm competing in Utility."* I said "so you don't care if your articles are covered in bacteria? And she said again, "I can't wash my hands." I think my last comment was"wow. e coli. that should make for a zesty weekend! Monday, April 23, 2012. Hmmm maybe we would after...

Border Collie Mom
http://bordercolliemom.blogspot.com/2015/07/week-one.html
Thursday, July 2, 2015. I remember people saying “the hardest part of this surgery is keeping your dog quiet and I totally underestimated this. We were told “crate rest” for 4 weeks, with only a short walk to potty and this has proven to be extremely difficult. The moment she hits the backyard it is GAME ON! I have begun to take her out once in a while on a prong collar to prevent her from “digging in” with her hind legs to pull. Crate training long before the surgery is an absolute must. We have 2 ̶...

Border Collie Mom: April 2013
http://bordercolliemom.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 7, 2013. Top 5 Things I've Learned from Rescue Dogs. Really good things sometimes come in stinky packages. Thursday night I picked up a puppy from a pound out in the country. The kennels were so smelly that I gagged walking in. The little pup came flying to the door of the kennel trying to get to me, but he was covered in dried urine and feces and smelled much like the kennel. He jumped and jumped for me to pick him up, but he was SO gross. Will I ever forget this smell? Apparently he had b...

Borderblog: 4th of July
http://cruzanborders.blogspot.com/2015/07/4th-of-july.html
Sunday, July 5, 2015. Sadly though, this only earned me 4th in my age group. Today I spend most of the early afternoon bathing and brushing dogs. We have had an incredible amount of hair to vacuum up lately so I figured they must be overdue for a grooming. Based on the way the yard looks now that assumption was correct! It looks like a dog exploded out there. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Enter your email to get notified of new posts! CDX, RN, AX, AXJ, AXP, AJP, CGC. View my complete profile. Techs...
