Life with the Three Crazy Dogs

Remember the puking and craping left by one of these three boys last week?  The culprit left some doo-doo for DB to clean on Saturday early morning, too.

We know who the culprit was, yes, it was Chase aka  Junior.  How we found out was DB was watching him when Junior wanted out.  Junior shot right out for a dump which was the runny ones.   I went on the whole of Friday and Saturday.  Finally, on Sunday it must cleared up and they are now back to normal.

Phew, can’t believe what a pain it was to clean the rugs and shampoo the carpet again.  This time he did it in the dining room on 5 spots.  I had to run to Petco to get a stronger formula poop/odor/stain remover to remove the stain and odor.  Since they were runny ones, i had to totally saturate the spots, let it sit for 30 minutes, blot them out and repeat the process three times.

What the heck did he eat out in the backyard?  I have no idea.  I know he loves to go to the far corner of the backyard because of the deer-scram granules I sprinkled on surrounding the lilies.  I hope it was not the granules that gave him the runnies.

Remember the Canon camera DB bought for me last April which became my favorite toy, and then how it konked out on us when we were on the plane to Malaysia last November?

DB finally sent it to CanonUSA to get it repair since it is still under warranty.  It took 4 days to get to the factory and only 1 day to repair and mailed back to us.   The problem with the camera was the LCD screen.  They replaced the screen and mailed it to us the same day.  Since I received it, the Sony Cybershot is sitting in my bag, in the back burner, as back-her-upper. 

So, what did I do this afternoon instead of giving Ranger his weekly bath?  Yep, playing with the Canon again and before that, we were searching high and low for the guide book and finally we found it, I was a happy camper.  Didn’t know this Canon Powershot 630 has so many bells and whistles in that small little thing.

Zoomed to 8x and captured the picture of these wolves hanging above the fireplace

And finally, I took this without DB knowing til I was done.

 

The neighborhood just opened up a public pool.  It’s j ust right behind our home.  How fortunate for us.  We can probably walk or climb over the fence for a free dip.

I was glad I was not in part of the day yesterday.  I came home at 4:30 p.m. from Satay2Go and all I could hear was screaming and more and louder screaming, yelling from the kids and the great speakers they have installed by their pool.  It finally quiet down around 8:30 p.m.  DB said the kids started out in the pool after the quick rain fall which was around 11:00 a.m. 

Today, it started at 9 a.m. and as of now it’s still going.  I am so tempted to call the cops to launch a complain, how noisy the stereo is which got louder and louder as the day goes on.  The stereo is the one that is frigging irritating.  By summer end, I will be able to learn some good old rap.

What’s your number?  I’ll call ya.

This week’s PhotoHunt theme is Bright.  I didn’t go out to hunt.  Looked high and low for pictures of depicting Bright.  Here are two I am putting up for this week’s hunt.

Picture taken on Fremont Avenue, Las Vegas.  It was bright enough to light up the street across it.

Flowers from the crabapple tree against the bright sunny sky.  The flowers were the only thing that brigthens up the backyard.

Remember I mentioned earlier Ranger had yeast infection in his ears?  Yeah, the sweet, looking buddy of ours, who has the most patience amongst the three of them, is getting too much attention from us.  DB is still playing vet in our household.

You can see how red his ear is.  I guess the picture is not too good – too much flash which makes it yellow!  DB has to squirt some ear drops in to each ear, but the vet tech forgot to include the squirter with the bottle of ear drops.  So we had to make do with a syringe, of course without the needle.  He has to squirt the drops in every day and I have to clean his ears every week.  DB said he never had to do any of these with his previous dogs.  I told him Ranger is just one of a kind which makes him so special.  His ears are getting better and his itching with the different medication is working quite good, at least it looks tolerable than before.  

Yeah, this guy is just panting away in this hot sticky weather.  We had the air-condition on most of the days and guess where these three boys will be at?  Either on top of the vent or laying against the wall next to the vents.  Why does it have to be so sticky in Minnesota??  And the skeeters are disgusting.

DB and I are wondering if the medication Ranger are taking is making him pant so much.  I know Predisone does, but the antibiotics and other non-steroid meds for his itchiness shouldnt.  Hhmmm, I still think he’s getting old and cannot tolerate heat anymore.
