Poor Egg Roll has the worst allergies in the summer. We make her wear a tshirt and sometimes a cone so she doesn't scratch her armpits raw and eat all the fur off her paws. We call her chicken feet when the latter happens. Lately, she's been completely miserable and she shows it. She won't come up and give us snuggles. She just lays there and stares at you with laser beams. I'm sorry that silly tshirt in the summer is for your own good. You'll thank me one of these days!
So I've been missing the Egg Roll love. The stinky kisses, the cuddles, just all the QT we used to spend together. Well this morning gives me hope! I got up all bleary eyed and running a smidge late because I didn't set my alarm clock the night before. I'm peeing and guess who comes up and rubs up against my leg and sits in between my legs? Egg Roll! Yes, a little weird while I'm peeing, but I'll take it. I reach down to pet her and give her lots of praise.
She watches me brush my teeth and wash my face like usual. We head out to the front door together and she is very lively and dare I say happy! She was so cute. I give her even more praise. Do I get my little puppy back? Probably not. Just a rare good mood for her until her allergies kick into full gear again. I'll take it. I hope being boarded next week doesn't make her miserable. I can't wait for the first frost so her allergies go away. Poor puppy.
