Feeling under the weather

Hi. So it's day 2. Only 31 days until my next stupid shot. I'm sorry, I am not normally this aggravated. I mean I want to meet the person who invented big nice cages for dogs. Did they think we would maybe be good if we didn't have to get stuffed in them. I am pretty sure I am spoiled because my cage is way too big for me but I like it like that. I just don't like when mom locks it. She has been really good today and stayed home all day. I mean she stays home everyday so thank the dog god for that. I didn't sleep good last night. I just couldn't get comfortable and of course mom can sense anytime I even move so she just starred at me the entire night. 

You knowwwww that feeling right. When you are in a deep sleep and you flipping wake up because you FEEL someone watching you. Yep. That's my mother. Let's see what else. Oh, I didn't eat my food last night because I just didn't want it but my other mom fed me some turkey and that was yummers. They were talking about me having to have food in my belly or the pain medicine would make me sick. I think that might be why I didn't sleep good. 

I know I am feeling better because I surely ate my food tonight. Every single bit. My grampa came to see me today. I was so excited my tail would not stop wagging.  So he came sit by me and rubbed my belly until I almost fell asleep. Don't they know we do this on purpose! Humans are so no smart. If they were smart then they would do "puppy" eyes at each other, it always works for me! 

My Doc called my mom today and I heard mom tell him about my sleeping last night but I think he was proud of me. Mom told me when they hung up that he said hi. So HEY DOC if you are reading this I LOVE YOU! 

Mom sorta lets me roam in the house since it's just me and her. All I want to do is lay under the bed's and mind my business and she knows that. She told me if I get my heart rate up I am going back on my bed in her office. 

What she doesn't know is I actually like it in there, because it's where she is. 

(insert puppy eyes here)

This picture is my booty hanging out from under the bed today. 

This is when she said "I love you Co"... I just popped my head out and gave her the eyes. Did I mention I was in an extra bedroom so I had it all to myself. K gotta go. 

P.S. I love you. 

THE FIRST DAY OF HEART-WORM TREATMENT

Hey everyone. It's me Ceaux Ceaux. I have something to tell you. I have heart worms. I know what you are thinking. How could a cute and healthy dog who takes her heart worm medicine every month get this. I don't have an answer but I wish I did. A couple of months ago I went in for my yearly exam and everything was fine. They even told my mom I didn't have these yucky worms. Exactly ONE month after my yearly exam my mom wanted to start me on the heart worm shot, you know the one that lasts 6 months. My doctor (at the time) told my mom that she had to check me before they gave me the shot. My mom said, " well a month ago she was fine so why do this all over again".  All I know is they did it again. 

This is when I overheard the terrible news. Worms! I my Heart?! My heart is only filled with LOVE... The only thing I thought was that these worms knew where to go for some love. Did I mention this was on a Friday? The Dr told my mom we needed to start the injection treatments on Monday. Mom said OK and made the appointment. I will let my mom tell you the next part of the story cause she can explain it better. 

 So that Friday night my mom wrote on her Facebook wall something about me having heart worms and starting treatment on Monday. All of a sudden out of nowhere one of her friends from High School sent her a private message. I think it was someone she had not spoke to in like, 14 years. Thank goodness they were friends online. Long story short her husband is a spectacular vet and wanted to talk to my mom.  He suggested that she go to this site and read more info on heart worms. 

I went there for a check up and he suggested starting her Doxycycline. 

This treatment plan was completely better for me and this Doc really loved me. I did one month of the Doxycycline pills then off a month, repeat one more time. This medicine slowly stopped the heart worms from multiplying and started to shrink them in size. It's sorta like prepping the worms before they are taken down by the big laser beam! 

SO the next part of treatment is the INJECTIONS. BLAHHH!

I went in today (look up above). Mom brought me in early this morning and that  is when they stuck the needle in my back then monitored me all day. They were so nice. They even answered my Mom's questions multiple times without being aggravated. The nice nurse I am with even promised mom she would give me my pills with the HAM my mother brought. Tell me I am not spoiled! 

When Mom left they STILL didn't talk about her and say she was "cray-cray". I knew then they loved us.  So fast forward to late afternoon when my mommies picked me up.

BAM. KNOCKED OUT! I swear y'all I was seeing double and just could not get comfortable. Mom told me that it was because of the shot and the pain medicine they put me on. I was feeling GOOD! 

I have about 5 different spots I sleep in. They are all over out house and none of these spots involve a CAGED KENNEL. The Dr told my mom to get a cage because I have to be sorta confined for a whole month, until the next shot. They said they don't want my heart rate to race or get too excited cause it can cause I think a HEART ATTACK or something like that. Mom fancied up this "caged" thing with all of my favorite blankets to make it as cozy as possible. I didn't think I would like it but I sorta do. Plus mom put it in her office so I can be near her. I'm tired.

Don't worry I plan on sharing every day of this stupid journey with you so come back tomorrow!

Love, Co

Zebra Rain Coat by Martha Stewart Pets

Hey everyone! I'm back with a new outfit to show you. I know what you are thinking. How can she afford all of these wonderful clothes. Well I'm sorta...jobless. I know how dare I even announce that! Since Martha sent me this rain coat I figured  she might see how good I look in her clothes and hire me for her ads. 

You can find all of the line at PetSmart and Martha Stewart Pets.  My friends at Martha Stewart sent me a few things to add to my wardrobe.  Today I am wearing the zebra rain coat in the picture above. 

My mom is always "directing" me when she takes my pictures and thank goodness I learned how to listen at a young age. She says "down, look up, stay" and as you can see in the picture above. I do exactly what she wants. 

See Martha! I will do great for a photo shoot. 

I'm usually smiling in all of my pictures but since I am wearing ZEBRA stripes today I am feeling "New Yorkish" and elegant. I usually move around and when I here STOP I seriously STOP in whatever pose I am in. 

Sometimes mom say's "Dat's a babbby girlll" and I know I am doing it right. 

My favorite thing about this rain coat is how it fits on my body. It fits around my front legs and my back legs. You can see in the picture below how it works. So when it's raining super hard it will not fall off.  I think my tail is super cute. 

Don't forget to check out the entire Martha Stewart spring collection at your local PetSmart and at Martha Stewart Pets.

AMERICAN APPAREL DOG HOODIE

I know what you are thinking. Why am I not facing the camera like I usually do. I don't know what's my problem lately. Every time my mom squats down and says..."Mommmmmma got new clothessss for the babyyyyy" my insides get excited and nervous at the same time. Who cares right. I am just a dog who is super spoiled and wears name brand clothes. 

I swear I usually love what my mom puts on me but this time I was just not loving it. It was too tight and not the shad of pink that makes me look good. I think I have a good shape, right? 

Apparently American Apparel thought I needed this hoodie. I promise when I loose a few pounds and this sucker fits loosely like it's supposed to I will get mom to take more pictures of me. Because let's face it. I'm a pretty cool dog and American Apparel is a pretty cool store. Put us together and you will get a huge happy situation. 

Wanna get your dog a hoodie? Order them here. They come in ton's of different colors. 

I know that I am facing the opposite way but this is the perfect time to show you that there is a hole in the back of the hoodie for a leash. How cool is that! 

I can't lie, I do like that. 

Yep. I showed her who was winning in this photo shoot. Too bad the left is my good side. 

Gotta run.

My new FOX RUFFLE TEE by Martha Stewart Pets

Hey everyone. It's me, Ceaux Ceaux. I am going to make this short and sweet only because I am trying to hide from my mom. You are probably wondering why I need to hide. It's not like I can hide for long because as soon as I hear a loud whistle from her I come running from my hiding spot strait to her. 

You would think I would be smart huh! Well the reason I am posting today is to show you some of my new clothes.  My friends at Martha Stewart sent me a few things to add to my wardrobe.  Thanks Y'all! I am wearing the Fox Ruffle Tee in the picture above. Is it not the cutest thing you have ever seen? My mom kept saying "Oh my word, Oh my godddd, Oh my whatever"... over and over. During the photo shoot I would look at her with my "sad eyes" sometimes even though I wasn't sad. When she see's those eyes she gives me extra attention. What can I say. Dog's need their confidence boosted too. 

I am actually really excited about this shirt, as you can see in the picture below. 

This is me starring strangely at something or someone. I think my mom was telling me to "STAY" and I just stopped dead in my tracks. With a mom who is a full time blogger I have learned to stop, drop and roll as soon as the camera gets near me. 

What? Another dog? Mom hide me. My friends can't see me wearing this outfit, they won't sniff under our gate anymore. 

I do love the buttons on this shirt. I think it's real wood. Maybe Martha carved it herself! I wish my mom would have taken off my collar for the pictures. 

Yes. Here is your final picture. You can see just how big my muscles are in this picture! I look like a true southern belle. 

Thanks Martha Stewart Pet's for sending me all this clothes. Stay tuned for the next outfit. You will flip, it's that cute.  

You can find all of the line at PetSmart and Martha Stewart Pets. 

How to get your mom's attention

Hey everyone! I just wanted to show you a quick picture of what I do at night. Mom just went to the bathroom so I grabbed her phone and sent this picture to my email. Yes. I know. I am a dog with an email. What can I say! See how I bend my paws? Wanna know why I do this. Because it makes me look sad and lonely and when I look sad and lonely my mom always gives me extra attention. I wish she could hear me laughing inside... but she cant! 

Gotta run. I see birds outside! 

Oh! I almost forgot to tell you. Martha Stewart sent me some fabulous clothes from her new spring collection so look out for some runway pictures of me this week.
