This is a doggie blog.


Chloe went to the vet today. She is very healthy, the official word is that she is some kind of st bernard mix. The dead give away is that she has double toes, meaning kind of two thumbs on her back feet (even though dogs don't have thumbs) We knew this was a trait great pyrenese had (anothe rhuge dog) but the vet said St Bernards have it too, which makes a lot mroe sense with what she looks like.

Beth isn't sure what to make of her. She alternates between mothering her and being annoyed by her. The funniest thing is everytime we pick up the leash (which is , literally, almost every five minutes) beth wants to go out too. That is, after all, her leash. She will stand at the door and cry if you go out without her. It's funny.

People keep asking us why we "did that" to ourselves. I hate they way if you don't want kids (which I do, don't get me wrong) it's totally rude to act all snobby to people who are pregnant or have children, but just because you don't like dogs it's ok to totally rain on my parade and be rude to my pets. thhhbt. Fortunately, I'm sure someone I know won't be that kind of parent.

I totally see why you got another. I would probably have about 300 cats by now if I didn't have David to stop me.

Oooh she has that little weiner dog toy! CUTE! I can' believe someone asked why you would "do that" to yourself! If I had the money (and the space and the permission from my husband) I would have a gazillion pets. I hate people like that.

Man, you are too lucky.

How big does the vet think she'll get?

the vet says "not to ginormous" (my husband's words) for whatever that's worth. There's really no telling. Our guess is 50-70 lbs, but it's a total guess.
