Hey person, if I tell everybody they’re going to feel sorry for me. Then they might give me hugs and loves.
Okay, that settles it. I’m telling them.
My person took me to the vet today. It wasn’t my regular check up time but something was bothering me. I didn’t mind too much though, because I love going to the vet. I always get lots of loves and treats there.
Well, they did stick a stick up my rear end. I’m not sure why they did that and I didn’t like it very much.
Then they started poking around in my ear and that hurt a little. Well, one of my ears hurt when they did stuff to it. The other one was okay.
Then they gave me lots of loves and treats. Lots of treats. Then after dinner my person gave me more treats.
My person says I get extra treats for a few days and then I get to go back to the vet for more loves and treats.
Oh, I think I just messed up this story. I made it sound too good and nobody’s going to feel sorry for me.
Hey person, my ear hurts really bad. I think I need some more treats to make it feel better. And could you give me some extra loves too?

Thanks Penny. It’s not so bad since I get extra treats. My person is hiding something called medicine in some of my treats but I don’t care as long as they taste good.

Sore ear AND a stick in your butt?!?! They really gave you the double whammy. I’ve had the stick at my vet. Not my favorite. Whoa! I don’t see how the stick will help your ear, but maybe those special treats will make you all better soon.
Extra loves and extra licks,
Cupcake
Bongo
April 18, 2012 at 6:30 pm
Cupcake, I haven’t figured out that stick thing either. They give me loves and then they give me a stick. It sure is nice getting extra treats though. Thanks for the extra loves and licks.

We’re sending you loves Bongo. Bella and Beary told me that I should share their trick with you: as soon as you’re done getting loves from the vet, sit down as quickly as you can with your bottom in the corner of the room. xx
Bongo
April 18, 2012 at 8:46 pm
Bella and Beary, great idea. That way they can’t stick that stick up your rear. I like it!

Your poor ear 😦

Jen, I’m with Elka on that temperature thing. At least I’m getting extra treats.

April 18, 2012 at 8:28 pm
Ouch Bongo, I’m sorry you’re sick. And at least they gave you lots of treats after sticking you in the butt! That can’t be fun– our pups never like it much either. We hope you are back to feeling better soon, buddy!
Bongo
April 18, 2012 at 8:49 pm
Thanks Deanna. My ear is still bothering me a little, but the extra treats are making up for it.

Madeleine, Gingersnap, and Linda, thanks so much for the award. I’m glad you enjoy my adventures. I’ll consider the award a treat. Speaking of treats, I think I feel an ear ache coming on. I’d better go tell my person it’s time for more treats.

Thanks Kevin – especially for the loves. I hope my ear is better soon too, but in the meantime I’m taking advantage of the extra treats I’m getting – and I get to go back to the vet for more loves and treats next week.

Hey Bongo, Jet here.
Dude, you and JJ… She just got over another ear infection… glad the lovies and treats made it tolerable so far… hope you feel better really soon. BTW, Bongo… I paid it forward and shared my first ever award with you today. 🙂

Thanks Jet – I am enjoying the extra treats. Congratulations on your award, and thanks for passing it on to me.

Oh Bongo, they did that stick up my butt too – maybe they were trying to find the ‘limes’ there. And I had an ear thing going on but you know what you can do? You let them pour that stuff in your ear & before they can jump back, you give your head a great big super shake… it’s pretty funny cause lots of stuff comes flying out…Loves, Lola
Bongo
April 19, 2012 at 11:37 am
Lola, it was kind of fun at the vet because they wanted me to shake all that stuff all over after they put it in my ear. My person says she has to clean my ear again today. Not sure if I’m looking forward to it, but it will be fun shaking everything out.
Lola
April 19, 2012 at 7:57 am
I’m always so scared at the vet’s office that it makes my hair fall out and I can’t enjoy the treats they try to give me. You’re very brave, Bongo.
Bongo
April 19, 2012 at 11:38 am
Lola, the first time my person took me to the vet I spit the treat out. I changed my mind about it though, because they always give me so many loves when I go there.
Patricia
April 19, 2012 at 9:56 am
So sorry you have an earache. That can’t be much fun. Good thing your person loves you so much that she can tell when things aren’t quite right. I think you should make the most of it and get all the extra loves you can.
Bongo
April 19, 2012 at 11:39 am
Patricia, I’m really enjoying the extra loves and treats. Now I have to figure out how to keep getting them when my ear is better.

Oh, Bongo, I’m so sorry you ear is hurting. I know how painful that can be. At least you have your treats to make you happy! Feel better soon, kiddo!
Bongo
April 19, 2012 at 8:39 pm
Thanks Monica. My person says my ear is looking better than it was. I hope she keeps giving me the extra treats though.
Jessica
April 20, 2012 at 10:16 pm
I’m sorry for sending this message late, but I sure hope you are feeling better, Bongo! My dog, Taylor, finds THE STICK the worst part of seeing the doctor…no matter how many treats are given to her! She shows her displeasure by whining up a storm! How do YOU show your person your feelings about THE STICK?
Bongo
April 20, 2012 at 10:42 pm
Thanks Jessica. I tolerate the stick because I know treats and loves are coming afterwards. My ear is starting to feel better but my person is still giving me those extra treats and putting medicine in it. She can forget about the medicine, but I sure hope she keeps giving me those extra treats.

Umm,hugs only if you promise you stop hiding your doggie snacks inside your ears! *Laughing really loud*
When your persons and you come back out to the neighborhood, you should stop by and visit Chuckles, the farm dog. He’s my award/tag staff writer now. Er, that is, if I can wake him up from his naps. *sigh* See ya & gud U feel better!
