I have had a very rough summer. I waas born with inflammatory bowel disease and it kicked up big time in May. I have been to the doctor more times than I chased butterflies. Finally, last week, a doggie specialist came to my house to meet my mom and I. Her name is Kelly, and I really liked her. She explained to me and mom that I am very nervous, and this makes my colitis worse. I was given some new things to help me stay calm so I can gwt better. First, I now have a new THUNDER COAT that mom puts on me when I feel scared or sick. It is soft and a grey color, when mom puts it on me it is really snug and keeps me warm. I fall asleep almost right away. Now I also wear a pheramone collar. I don't really like it because I never have worn a collar before, so I keep trying to take it off, I roll all over the floor to get it off, but it doesn't work, it's still on, but I do feel calmer. Mom also uses a clicky thing and gives me treats after I hear the click. This is my favorite new thing. The last new thing, and I really don't like it is a strap that goes over my little nose and under my little chin. I really tried to wiggle out of that one but just couldn't do it. Thank goodness mom doesn't like it either so I won't have to deal with that one anymore. My dad also bought me 2 new fleecey tee shirts that I really really like they keep me nice and toasty. So as of today with all these new things I feel calm, and I don't have to bark so much, my tummy feels good to. So all and all things are looking up. It's now my bedtime, I will write more soon.......
