11 April 2007 – Last night Bryce had both dogs on his bed, as I mentioned, Chloe is not supposed to jump up or down until her incision heals. Bryce left the room and Chloe jumped off the bed. Jack started barking. Bryce came back into the hallway to see Chloe turned around giving Jack a dirty look as if to say, “Tattle tale!”
15 April 2007 – Chloe wasn’t feeling too well last week. Kent took her to the vet and we found out she was in pain and might have an infection. We got some medication for her and by the time I got home from work on Friday night, she was a whole different dog. She was much livelier and actually started playing with Jack. Watching the two of them play has been hilarious. First off, Chloe is the initiator even though she is 1/2 his size. She will jump on Jack and start nipping at him and then he will play with her. They roll all around on the waterbed playing with each other.
On Saturday we had them outside for awhile. Jack got her to play his “Run, Jack, Run” game and he was absolutely loving having her chase him around the yard. We have one of those big covered storage or car cover things we put in the backyard. Well, Jack discovered it quite awhile ago and thinks it is a good hiding place. While they were playing the run, Jack, run game, he would duck in there. Chloe would stop short outside and had no idea where he had disappeared to. Then suddenly he would appear out the side and she would chase him again. They did this several times before she finally decided to check out the big covered thing herself. When she went in there, Jack followed her and immediately came out with a bone he had been hiding in there; had to find a new hiding place for it.
The other thing that has been funny is that Chloe likes to play with Jack a LOT. So when he wants some peace and quiet, he goes in and sits on the bed in the extra bed room. I’ll be looking for him and there he is, quietly sitting on the bed and sleeping, hoping Chloe won’t find him.
Chloe goes back to the vet on Monday for a follow-up visit and we are taking Jack in for his first visit so the vet can just check him out. Oh, another thing we have discovered about Chloe is that she won’t eat dog food. In the beginning we figured it was due to her recent surgery and the fact that she was still in pain. The vet sold us some of the expensive canned dog food brands to feed her to try to get some nutrients into her. She ate about 1/8 of a cup and that was it, but when I offered her dog biscuits, she kept wolfing them down as long as I kept feeding them to her. I think her former owners spoiled her rotten and fed her just people food and dog treats. So I have to ask the vet about that and what we can do to get her to quit being picky.
