Hernia. :( When Elvis had a vet appt last Wednesday, our veternarian discovered Elvis had a very small herina. It's not something to worry about he said, but me i'm just hope he's okay. He pushed it back in "I guess". But when Elvis gets neutered he is gonna check on it.
Also. Our vet suggested we wait till Elvis is at least 6 months old before we neuter him. Because we wanted to get it done. (see my thread in dog health) Because he said that male puppies need this hormone to mature or something. So I guess we have to wait which sucks.
yeah, so even though this hernia thing was small, please hope it stays that way.
(Can anyone explain to me what a hernia actually is? I had a hard time understanding it the way our vet was.)
Oh yeah! Yesterday we took Elvis to PETS SUPPLIES PLUS and it was his first time to be around strange people and animals. He did absolutly GREAT! He walked so nicely on the leash beside me. Although he kept trying to jump in the pile of toys, that was out. haha silly boy. He was prolly thinking "Oh boy! This must be heaven!" :D My mom says that since Elvis did so great we can keep taking him up there when I have more money. Yay!

Elvis got a new collar w/ new leash, A squeaky elephant toy, 2 ID tags. and I got a puppy magazine.
I also have some pictures to share. :o
