I have been sick and busy. Now that I'm a full-time student, I'm twice the busier.
Poochie is well... She did have a bit of a skin problem due to the dryness and coldness. Our house is super dry ...
She had these hot bumps on her back for a couple of weeks. It's all cleared, though it spread a bit to her bum, but that's nearly cleared as well. I kept her back moisturized and cooled with a peppermint oil spray I made. I don't know if it's the cooling mists or just time, but her back did show signs of getting better when I started to use the spray. It also made her coat smoother. She never showed any changes in behavior. The bumps didn't itch, either. I could tell that it did irritate her, tho. During the breakout, she also chewed her tail raw. It healed as soon as I sanitized and applied ointment. Used Bitter Apple to keep her mouth off.
To keep her warmer I made her a fleece vest. It's super cute and she likes it. She dances when I bring it out.
She dances a lot now.
Such a brat of a princess, she is.
Still working on the socializing, but her training is going really well. Still haven't taken her to classes, but I think I'll still wait on that till I can take her to more advanced classes and once she's much more socialized. Due to my busier schedule and being so ostracized from friends, it's harder to go out and do things.
I am loving the low gas prices, thanks to our WONDERFUL economy...
My first book is published and availble for purchase online!!!! EXICTEMENT!!!!
I was going to wait on giving the link out till my name is put in the inside of the book, but the publishers like to rip us off on teeny changes like that, so.. here's the link!!! I'd prefer you guys buy the softcover, since my name is permanently on that one. The hardcover has my name on the jacket, but not on the physical book :(
