This is really not a dignified way to eat. I'm really getting tired of this collar!  I have had it on since I left the vet on Monday night.  It is crazy and stupid.  Who designed it anyway?  I'm gonna find that person and bite their butt!!  I can't scratch my ear, I have to lift my head high when I run up the steps (or it throws me back down, which isn't cool at all). Life wearing this cone is not the way it should be!  


I have found that when mom gives me a bone and I bite it in half, I never seems to lose the other half, it is stuck in my collar.  The problem then is to get it out of my collar, mom has to rescue me and find it and feed it to me again.  It's really humiliating to say the least.  I'm so glad she didn't take me for a walk to further humiliate me.  I've stayed very close to home this past week.

I was told that today I'm going to the vet again.  I don't like the vet at all.   However, I will make an exception to not argue about the appointment today.  The vet is gonna check my eye (which will be nasty again, some stupid drop in my eye and then a bright light on it)  I am mentally prepared for what is going to happen this time, but I'm sure I'll squirm for the vet when he looks at it. You know how your eye is when the eye doctor comes at you with this thing to drop in your eye.  Anyway, if I'm good and pass the test, they will take off this horrible cone of shame and I can live again!  Katie said she'd take me to the appointment cause mom is going away.  I will try to be better in the vet's waiting room, but when I see all the other dogs, I want to talk to them.  But mom never sees it that way and tells me to be quite, she goes as far as to take me outside and we wait there until it's my turn.  This is my opportunity, my chance for a soapbox for my fellow dogs and she takes me out of the situation.  How can I explain to her I need to spread some dog words?

oh well, I'll have to ponder that thought until my next vet visit.  But for now, I'm anxious to go and see if they'll take off this STUPID CONE! Wish me luck!!!
