ROAD TRIP!! And vomiting.

ROAD TRIP!!!!!!!!  We are going on a ROAD TRIP!!!!!!!  And I am soooooooooo excited!  We are headed for the world famous Cabot Trail - right here in Nova Scotia. CHECK.  IT.  OUT.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TC9S4Ehgq1s
We will see mountains.   We will see ocean.  And MAYBE we will see MOOSE.  Although my human has driven around the Cabot Trail probably 30 times, and has never actually SEEN a moose.  They are there - for SURE, but she has never spotted one.  Maybe this time.  One thing for sure - Velcro dog and I will be on leash.  ALL the time.  My human will no doubt take LOTS of photos - so I'll share our travel adventures.

And in other good news, I threw up yesterday.  Which was FANTASTIC.  Why?  Well...I wasn't going to talk about this...but what the heck - I might as well fess up.  You see - I was in deep trouble for the past week.  Because.... well....I amputated a stuffed bunny's leg...

Three weeks ago we had company arrive - a friend of my human's who comes to visit us every summer.  And we were playing "find the bunny" - while my human was at work.  He hid the bunny downstairs and I went to find it.  But I was gone a LONG time.  So my human's friend went to find me.  And he found one bunny.  With stuffing coming out of him.  He grabbed the bunny and put him in the garage.  What he didn't notice was that the bunny was missing a leg  - because the bunny was all mushy.  My human didn't realize that the bunny had surgery until several days later.  After I had two episodes of vomiting.  THAT'S when she saw the bunny.  She took the bunny to the Vet (not to fix him, but to see if the Vet had any suggestions about a stomach containing a bunny leg) and was told that we would have to "wait and see."   In the meantime, I still had a great appetite, and I was pooping just fine.   I just had those two episodes of vomiting.  My human was beginning to think that I had chewed the leg enough, that it passed through my guts.  Nope.  Yesterday morning, over a WEEK since I performed the amputation, I threw up the bunny leg. If you ever wanted to see two happy humans examining dog vomit, you should have seen my human and her friend. 

So it looks like my "find the bunny" game will be quite restricted from now on.  And good thing my human bought that new bunny when she was at Crufts.  The old bunny has gone to the stuffed bunny cemetery.  I feel bad - but I am sure glad that I am feeling 1000% again.  Just in time for our ROAD TRIP!  

I wonder if I will find a stuffed moose on the Cabot Trail....

Stay tuned for my on-the-road adventures!
