Nobody puts baby in the corner. :D

I'm glad you started a new thread because it took forever for my computer to load the other one. :cool:

Fritz, I can't believe you're eating ice cream. You really are a king, aren't you? It's nice that you are keeping your Mom & Pop company.

Fritz we think you are pretty smart there curled up in the corner in the kitchen. You never know when a tasty morsel might just fall off the table! :) Bella and Ripley are very jealous over your snack of apple pie and butterscotch ripple ice cream As a matter of fact, so am I. :)

Thanks for asking Barry. I just emptied my mailbox. Deland has alot of damage. My kids live in Deland and they're ok. Not hit by the tornado at all. Alot of the damage is close to where I work. Some of the roads are closed so we can't get through as of yet. Thanks so much for your concern.

Fritz, you're adorable !! Don't get too cold buddy!! :)

AHHHHHH Fritz, you're even making me feel all warm and cozy now too!!!!

Fritz looks so comical underneath that table with his stash, and I enjoyed the close up picture of his fuzzy face!!! And , of course, I like seeing pictures of your Mom and Dad!!!!


It's too darned cold outside for me, SO, be careful when you go to that Hockey Game, bundle up big time!!!

BURRRRRRRR!!!!

Daisy and Delilah
02-03-2007, 06:36 PM

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v334/fritz26/curlyguy.jpg Fritz curled up on Papa's lap this morning on another very cold day here.It is 5 above fahrenheit and a windchill of around -17 fahrenheit,and i had to go out cold and all to shovel. I wore two pairs of mits with handwarmers,wore pajama bottoms under my pants, a sweatshirt and a heavy socks.I still hope i can go to the game today if i am up to it.Fritz finally settled down and went under the couch and he went up when I did after the Maple Leafs game last night.He had his toast.porridge and cereal as usual.He is now up with dad,keeping him cozy.I shovel snow for people across the street who are staying at their son's place in Florida,which is 20 miles away from where that Tornado hit in Deland,Florida,apparently it rained heavy and windy,couldn't sleep.

Well, You're sure getting your Morning exercise.

We have the same blustery COLD temperatures here in the Mitten State too, so I know all about such Shoveling Excursions!!!! I sure hope you can make it to that Hockey Game, you need that Reward for all your hard work!!

We are getting ready to venture out again today~ (yikes!!!)


Fritz and Papa look so warm and toasty in the picture~

I'll keep that one in the back of my head today :o

Pam
02-04-2007, 09:01 AM
Oh Fritz you are a silly boy wanting to go out in the freezing cold and then not wanting to come in. My Bella is like that too though. I am laughing at all of the things you have dragged under the table. You are such a little character. :) By the way Barry be careful with all of that shoveling. You don't want to hurt your back. Oh, and it is freezing here today too and supposed to get even colder. Wind chills later on will be around zero and we have a very cold week ahead. Brrr!

Daisy and Delilah
02-04-2007, 09:10 AM
Wow Barry. You sure are busy. I hope you're taking care of that cold and be careful with that snow shoveling. That's a very demanding job-I remember it when I lived in Virginia. Take it easy.

Fritz, you and Papa are such good heaters for each other aren't you? Stay warm you guys!! It sounds like it's really really really cold there :)

elizabethann
02-04-2007, 04:42 PM
The weatherman asked "who left the door open to Canada"? Because we're going to be getting the weather you're having now. I'm not looking forward to it. :(

Anyhow, I love that picture of Fritz. He's keeping his Pop all nice and toasty. What a good boy, Fritz. :)

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v334/fritz26/eating.jpg Fritz cleaning out the cereal bowl this morning.He had his toast and porridge.Marlene and Larry were here while I was at the game and I am sure he greeted them in his usual way.I had some Chinese Food we had from Saturday for supper and Fritz waited until i was done and he licked the plate clean.Fritz was pretty good,out a couple of times,then under the couch.Fritz went before I went to bed,he wanted,he didn't need so I just told get to bed and he eventually did.I guess dad didn't like the picture of himself with Fritz yesterday,hair wasn't combed,had Mom rip it up.Still bitterly cold here,still windchill and snowsquall warnings,supposed to better by Wednesday or Thursday.Still coughing a little,i was only in the rink during the game,went to the lobby to warm up in between periods.Friends we know have a 8 year old Bichon Female Cleopatra,Cleo for short and the owner let her out,she got under a fence and went into the subdivision next to them and was gone overnight.He put out leaflets and he did find her, someone had taken her in and given her a bath.he never ties her up,that is what happened to their Bichon Angel and she was hit by a car and eventuly died and is buried in their backyard.

Daisy and Delilah
02-05-2007, 07:58 AM
Fritzie looks so cute!! I sorta got a smile out of your Dad not liking yesterday's picture, Barry, he still has the desire to look his best and that's a great thing! Tell him, I don't care what his hair looks like, he should see mine right now ;) ;) ;) Anyway....he's a good looking guy no matter what his hair looks like.
I'm glad your friend found Cleo. I sure hope they keep an eye on her so she doesn't get killed :( That would be so sad.

It's always so nice to see your pictures! Fritz is such a darling little guy and obviously much loved and a bit spoiled too! ;) I love the picture of him begging for your sister's food.

I pray that your father's illness progresses slowly and the doctor's appointment is a positive one! ;)

Uh oh! What's Taffy doing on that bed, Fritz?? That's your spot isn't it? Awwwww!!! That's really nice of you to let Taffy sleep on one of your beds ;) You're both looking good Fritzie!! :)

Pam
02-08-2007, 09:06 AM
There is a lot for me to see as I haven't visited this thread in a little while! As always the pictures are terrific! Fritz's little personality shines in each one! I just love the one of him in the window barking at the kids. I think if I lived across the street from you it would be so much fun to look out and see Fritz every day in that window. What a good boy he is to share his bed with Taffy too. :) I hope your dad will have a good report on his blood work. We are always thinking of Aunt Irene too and wishing her a successful outcome after chemotherapy.

Fritz, what a good fluff you are! Sharing your bed and then your sofa with Taffy; but NOT dad, as far as I can see, ha ha!!! I lvoe seeing you in the front window, that sill was made with you in mind. Nice photos of your Mum and Dad, Barry, thanks for posting these.

02-08-2007, 06:19 PM
Oh Fritz, I haven't been able to get onto Pet Talk as often as I would like, but I always have you and everyone else on my mind throughout the day.

You're just as sweet as can be, curling up beside Mom and Dad, Barking at the children as they come home from school, and teasing everyone with your clever tricks!!!

It felt so good, seeing you and Taffy again today~ :o

We can bet you were ecstatic when Papa came back, Fritz!! I love the pics of you looking out the window at the snow. You look so handsome with the beautiful snowfall outside. You're as white as the snow buddy! I see that Taffy is making herself comfortable too. You're such a good boy, allowing Taffy to be so relaxed when she visits. Great pics, Barry.

I'm still keeping all of you in my thoughts and prayers :)

http://www.imagebee.org/images/6598bedboy.JPG Fritz at the end of the bed this morning,stirring to get up.He went just before I did and he slept right in between mom and dad,fours in the air.This morning,Dad wanted Sausages and Eggs,the Sausage patties were frozen,they had to come apart and I guess Fritz smelled that,he is begging for it before they are cooked.I went up a few minutes to get dad some coffee and there is Fritz sitting on the couch,wanting eggs and sausage,he didn't touch the cereal or toast I had for him.Dad used his new electric shaver that mom got for him and was using in the living room,Fritz didn't like the noise of it,he barked and barked at it.It is easier for dad to shave there than to get up and go to the bathroom to do where he would have to get up and go there.

Yes Barry, that is such a special picture of Fritz with his Papa. Your Dad looks so happy and proud of his little Fritzie!! It seems Frtiz thinks all fresh dishes of water are for him. I can't stop laughing at him snatching things to take under the table. :)

http://www.imagebee.org/images/1742poppynfritz.JPG Fritz on dad's lap this morning.Fritz seems to be lazy or not hungry,he only had my cereal,not the toast or Porridge.Larry was to pick up the tractor and take it out to his brother-in-law's yesterday,couldn't get a hold of him,so have to wait until next week. Mom made the mistake of mentioning this to dad and he wanted to go out and tighten the oil filter.A lady said oil got on her driveway in the fall and dad wanted to check it.I tried doing it,there is no room in the trailer to do it and ther cab is on it and too much has to come off and while closing the hood on it,pinched my finger,it's fine.He got the same notion this morning,getting mom upset,can't tell him nothing.A case worker is coming today,so we will see what happens with that.From tomorrow night into Wednesday,there may be 4-6 inches of snow,so will have to wait on that.They have wrong on these before,hopefully it will be wrong again.

It has to be very trying for all of you Barry. It's always so hard to understand that the person that's ill doesn't see things the way we want them to, or vice versa. I guess everyone needs to be patient in these situations and do the best they can. I have to say that it amazes me how tidy the house is all the time and what a great job you and your Mom are doing to take care of your Dad. I wouldn't want to be in your shoes. I always wish you all the best and I always will.

Just keep taking those great pictures of Fritz and his Papa every day. I know that cheers us all up :D Take care!!

elizabethann
02-12-2007, 12:09 PM
Why did Fritz have to be put in his cage? Did the case worker not like dogs?

Did Fritz get groomed lately? He looks so clean & white - like a little snowman.

Daisy and Delilah
02-12-2007, 12:38 PM
I agree with elizabethann. Fritz, you look like a snowball. So bright and white. You were probably in your cage so you wouldn't grab the case workers files, etc. ;) You're such an entertainer, buddy!! :)

The captioning for the pictures is the name I gave the pictures,fits every picture just right.

Such great pictures to see in the morning ( with exceptional captions too)!!!

Fritz is such a Rascal isn't he?~~~~Stealing the neighbors boot, barking at the girl with the hiccups, and coping so well with the cold weather. He's such a great Pal to have around the house!!!

I think he would be a perfect picture on this years Christmas Card :o

And,

I'm so glad that your Dad can have his bloodwork done at home, as It's way too cold outside and of course, it removes some stress from all of you.

What a great selection of pictures to greet me after work, Barry!! I love the one of you smiling Fritz!! The one of you begging is priceless too. Oh well, I think I love them all!!!
YAY!! The Aunties are going to visit. You'll be so excited buddy! I can't wait to hear about the visit. It will be a wonderful reunion for everybody!

Stay out of that snow Fritz. You're going to freeze those little pawsies off.

Barry, I can't tell you how much I enjoy the pictures of your family and Fritz. I just feel warm and cozy every time I see new pics and read your nessage :)

http://www.imagebee.org/images/7122cuddleguy.JPG Fritz cuddled up to dad this morning on the couch.He goes with Dad to the couch when Dad gets up in the morning .He had his toast and cereal with me in the bedroom as i was watching the first half of the Westminster Show.There wnere some very nice dogs,like Bill Cosby's dog the Dandie Dinmont Terrier.I saw the Bichon Frise High Ridge Is Judge's Choice.He is a very cute Bichon,to bad we can't get the hair to look like that on Fritz,it is probably cut that way for showing.Unfortunately,didn't win the group and he didn't even place,but they sure are beautiful dogs.A couple of times i mentioned seeing a dog on the tv. and Fritz perked right up and looked,thought there was one in the house I guess .He was on my bed watching it with me,probably still there now or with dad.

http://www.imagebee.org/images/7458snowsit.JPG Fritz sitting out in the snow this morning.It doesn't bother him at all.Bichons have a second layer of fur that keps them warm,so cold don't bother them,warm weather it is different ,they start panting.Dad was upset,told me his legs felt worse and not long ago,I could hear him talking to mom,he didn't sound happy.He wants to go up to my sister's and see their new kitchen,hasn't heard back from her yet.My Uncle just came over and he seems fine now,Fritz jumped up at my Uncle,don't think he grabbed any boots this time aroun.d

You look mahvelous Fritz!! You're such a cute little boy!!

I'm sorry your Dad fell, Barry. How scary. How did you find out that the iron is making your Dad lose weight? I take large doses of iron for anemia and it doesn't affect my weight at all. To be on the safe side, I would check with his doctor before stopping it. He may need it to prevent other problems. Low iron can really zap his energy level. Have you guys tried giving him some of those shakes like Ensure? They supplement lost nutrients. We gave those to my Grandmother and she did great with them. Sorry I don't know the names of the ones that are on the market now. I know that's the one we gave her 15 years ago and I think those are still available. I'm sorry you all are having such a hard time. :(

Batteries on the camera went, had a pack of four and the camera needs two of them aty a time the two only lasted 2 days each time,so by this afternoon should have batteries.dad had to crawl to the bedroom,I guess the fall hurt him a bit,though we could get him up on his feet during the day,at night he just didn't have any strength.no problems during the night,fritz slept in his own cage.Mom wanted me to pick him up off her so she could get up out of her chair,Fritz growled at me,did the same this morning when dad wanted to be moved over the the recliner where he is now,Fritz I think is in the window.We had some trouble getting dad there,so mom called Larry,but before he come ,we had got him the chair.If it doesn't get better soon,Mom is going to get some help,getting a little too much,dad is a dead weight to lift, when he can't help us.Dad drinks Ensure every day so he is getting what he needs from that.There might be some snow coming ,hard to say,any here from an inch to 4 so who knows,it better hold off i have a game to go to tonight and i haven't missed a game in over 3 years.has the apointment in toronto on tuesday,hope it goes well,it is always a chore getting him ready to go and getting him dressed.

Unfortunately, it may be getting too much for sure, Barry. That lifting will take a toll on all of you. My heart breaks daily for you and the family. I'm glad your Dad is drinking Ensure. It's so good for him. It will give him extra needed nutrients. Give Fritz some kisses from us and take care. We'll look forward to more pictures when you get batteries. :)

There you are Fritz. All tuckered out after all that busyness. What a busy boy you are. It's all you can do to keep up with the family's belongings. Especially the radio remote. What will you grab next, cutie pie?? You're so funny.

Barry, I think it's always the people that we're closest to that we tend to take our anger out on. If that makes sense. It's not that we don't appreciate those people, it's just because those people that are closer are always there during our weaker moments. It's hard to explain. We just seem to feel more comfortable with the people we communicate with most of the time so it's easier to "let go" on them.
I'm pretty sure your Dad appreciates you and your Mom alot. He just has some agitation stemming from his illness. I'm sorry it's so hard on you.

http://www.imagebee.org/images/7614peering.JPG Fritz peering out the window this afternoon.Fritz and Taffy behaved themselves,sometimes you would never know there were two dogs in the house,Fritz would bark at the odd person going by,other than that ,it was quiet sailing.It was a long day at Sunnybrook,saw all kinds of doctors,didn't do anything,goes back at the end of May.He hasn't been too bad today,a couple of times,he would raise his voice,other than that ,no problem.Supposed to have an MRI at some time,hospital hasn't phoned as to when it is.

http://www.imagebee.org/images/1983lappyboy.JPG Fritz on dad's lap this morning.Goes right there after waking up.Had his breakfast,i had to feed him the toast by hand or he doesn't eat it.Probably gone back there now.Dad is fine,arm was hurting a bit,mom wanted to him to take an Advil,he said he can sleep great without Advil.Fritz is to get groomed tomorrow but there is another storm headed this way from Colorado,might be snow in the morning or i heard somewhere else it is to be later tomorrow afternoon,so will have to see on it.Supposed to be freezing rain and ice pellets with it,I prefer just the snow,makes it harder to shovel with the freezing rain and ice pellets.

There's Fritz with his Papa!! What a great little boy! Be good tomorrow and have fun at the groomer. Daisy and Delilah are going shortly to get their nails done. Can't wait to see you after the visit Fritzie!! Please give my best to the family, Barry, and be careful out there shoveling.

He now goes at 12:30 on Friday afternoon.

Great pictures, Barry!! I love the one of Fritz hanging his little feet off the couch. How adorable!!

I'm glad you and your Dad got things worked out, Barry. I think your Dad is having a hard time understanding why he isn't the person he used to be. Seeing himself probably brought that to mind. I'm sure he loves you very much and didn't mean to hurt you. I'm sorry it happened but crying always makes us feel better somehow. Emotions are running high at your house. It's good to know that you're both on the same page now.

http://www.imagebee.org/images/1559wandering.JPG Fritz out on an early morning wander around the patio.better do that now, there is to be snow,freezing rain,ice pellets and rain overnight.Fritz's grooming appointment was changed to tomorrow at 12:30 due to the bad weather today.After what happened with dad ripping up a picture,thought it best not take one of him in it,don't want a repeat performance of yesterday.Hopefully at some point,he will change his mind.Fritz is right next to him keeping company.Fritz was in dad's spot on the couch,Mom was bringing dad back from the washroom,Fritz growled,got him moved finally,wasn't easy.

Fritz: You look like you've already been to the groomer. Daisy didn't like going to the groomer yesterday. It was a mini nightmare. I guess I need to break down and start doing her nails myself :( I told her she should love the groomer like Fritz does but she wouldn't smile :)

It's a good idea to cozy up to everybody in the house Fritz!! It really looks cold out there. Great pictures of everybody, Barry. Stay warm :) I wonder if Fritz will even be able to go to the groomer on Friday. We're expecting some rain here later.

Wow, You are receiving a bit of snowy weather tonite!!! :eek: And you say that you're due for freezing rain, then all rain?

You got hit a bit harder than we did, as we received a scant layer of freezing rain earlier in the morning, then, Thunderstorms this afternoon. Wild weather, huh!!!

It's wonderful to know that you and Mom have a family member who will offer their time and patience. Larry is a Saint for assisting in such a way.
While I do know how frantic some moments can be, in all honesty, I can tell that your Dad worries and cares for his family every bit as much as he ever has~ which only adds to his frustration. :(

If only the Sun were shining and everyone could go outside for a change of scenery. I bet Fritz would like that too!!! :cool:

AWW! Fritz is just the most handsome boy after his groom (although was just as handsome before!). I continue to marvel at the pictures of him in the window and the fact that he doesn't knock that candle down. I don't have anything in my big window that Ripley likes to sit in because I am sure he wouldn't be quite as careful. :) Your dad looks so happy in these pictures. I am glad your sister visited and brought some joy to his day.

It was good to see Dad and Fritz again~ No doubt that Dad wants to get out and DO what he always has done when Springtime is around the corner~ hence the grumbling. :( But, you've got to admit, Fritz is sure his Buddy, huh!!!) :p

The Ramp will be sooo Great to have !!!

It's comforting to know that your Auntie Irene will have just ONE more Chemotherapy treatment~ I think she looks real pretty ~She's obviously a very strong woman!!! I hope she's feeling better and better!!!

Hi Fritz!

I know about cold, it got cold here overnight, too. The wind is howling and it is making my neighbor's fence tilt and creak. I didn't like the sound this morning, so I ran out and did my thing and ran right back inside to mom. AND I demanded my carrot!

I had to have a bath last night. I sat still for mom, but that doesn't mean I LIKE it! Then when we went to bed I snuggled under the covers to keep warm. I like your green blankie! I have a blankie too, and I love to sit on it, under it and with it. I also like to snuggle up close in bed.

It was easier getting him out of there than it does getting him out of the couch.His scooter come this afternoon and he is proud to have it,he will be able to get around come spring.he ate his supper,mom puts gravy on it,eats it up and then wants meatloaf from dad.Just had a short play with him with his Monkey.He is downstairs here looking for food crumbs.Mom has to serve at a church dinner,so will have to get dad in bed before she goes,too much of a lug for me to do it by myself.

http://www.imagebee.org/images/3119coolnappy.JPG Fritz found a cool place to snoozeinthe middle of the kitchen floor.Mom went to serve dinner at the Church,I took dad to be around 7,Fritz was in the window,then he was at the back door yipping to go out,went out for a few minutes to sit on the step,came back in and is now in the window.Fritz stayed right next to dad on the couch until he was ready for bed and he then headed to the window,barked few times at people going by.A lady came by to show us how to get dad in the wheelchair by bracing a leg against his,kind of hard when dad's feet hurt when you touch them.when I do it,dad gets up a bit ad i lift him under the shoulders and into the chair,my shoulder is beginning to hurt from the lifting and to some extent my back.

Great pictures of you Fritzie!! You're taking such good care of Papa all the time. I'm so happy your Dad got his scooter, Barry. That should really help. You and your Mom take it easy and don't hurt yourself. :) Thinking of all of you daily :)

Oh Fritz, you can't go off visiting your neighbors by yourself, although I am sure they love seeing you. He looks very handsome in his bandana, and that is a lovely sit (I would have given him a treat ;) ).
