Updates…a long time coming.

So it’s been awhile but, briefly, here is what has been going on with Otto:

  1. Microchipped - Very cooperative because I let him eat on a Natural Balance roll while they did it.
  2. Neutered - This past Monday.  I wish I had taken a picture of his droopy red eyes after he woke up from surgery.  His stitches get taken out next Wednesday.  It has been really sad/difficult to keep him crated most of this week.  No one told him that he had surgery I guess because he has been trying to play like he doesn’t have stitches. Poor guy. I’ve frozen a thousand bones with wet food in them to give him something to do.  He loves them so much he will voluntarily “kennel up” when he sees them.
  3. AKC Puppy Star- He passed his test Wednesday!  If we send in his form he can get certificate and some other frame-able stuff. He got all sorts of treats as a reward including a stuffed mallard that makes great duck sounds when you squeeze it.
He’s growing in leaps and bounds…all upwards.  As a result he’s a super-skinny guy right now.  Awkward phase. Hopefully I’ll have more pictures soon.  His wigglyness makes it tough.
