Happy Marathon Monday


Recommended Posts

For anyone, past or present, who is or has ever been a Bostonian…Lil Poppy would like to wish you a happy marathon Monday. She was cheering our friend Dr Brooke on, who is an e-vet across town from us. Luckily we don’t see her often professionally but we are very proud of her today. 
 

Poppy also wanted to show you her brand new collar that arrived in the mail today. The timing was very appropriate.

She’s lucky she’s gorgeous because even after two walks and enrichment tonight (her snuffle mat) she’s still the spicy version tonight. I can’t wait until her baby canine teeth fall out.

Trying is a different word than I used earlier. Lol. I love her so much. I love her so much. I just keep repeating that phrase. And “this too shall pass”. I think next week we’ll do a day or two of daycare.

About 25 years ago, after my second puppy in 6 months, I said I was never doing puppy again. I did--I brought Daisy home 10 years ago because I couldn't find an adult Std. at the time. She was promptly dubbed The Jerk, or something along those lines. She's still a jerk, but slightly less go-go-go and doesn't nip or jump up.

I’m just baffled at how something so cute can be so….sharp. :wacko:

After reading this I guess there is a reason we take the seniors in. :lol

Yep. :lol: 

I find that I can't take the activity levels of young animals. I never really could, but now my tolerance is even lower. Seniors are more my speed.

Yes to all of the above about energy levels, but she is

So. Frickin'. Cute.  

What size do you think she's going to be as an adult?

Calculators online say she’ll be 60-70 lbs as an adult based on her weight and age now. I’m dying to know as well. I don’t mind if she stays on the smaller side.
