Christine + Ellie's Blog (5)

This is a funny video my friend sent me of a pug pushing her own 'pug' in a stroller:

Enjoy!

Ellie had her 3rd parvo shot today and the vet says she can go outside. YAY! Obviously no dog parks/pet stores, etc... but least we both won't get stir crazy anymore! Plus, NYC is full of outdoor dining so it'll be great to take Ellie out.



On the slightly bad note, Ellie had a minor ear infection. Vet said it was common among goldens and poodles with the mix heat and humidity here. (It's rained about 17 days here...) Oh well, no big deal apparently. Just a little medicine to get her… Continue

I don't know if it was that I wasn't paying attention to her and trying to set-up the gate but she bit me so hard on my foot that I have a cut. Then she continued to bark and nip at my pants. Needless to say I wasn't too happy.



This morning she woke up and we played for a little bit before I started getting ready for work. I put her pet taxi - which she sleeps in - in the kitchen w/ the door open and stuck… Continue
