Binx is eating canned Euk. mixedd with water..very sloppy and soupy. I don't know what Frosty Paws are!!!! They sound like a snack? Tell me, and I will go look for them tomorrow when we (well, Binx) have our weekly weigh in at Petsmart.

Walk time!

Johanna, Frosty paws are like icecream, but for dogs. You boy definately deserves one!
Well, how much weight has he gained since you've had him? I bet he's growing fast

[Cataholic]

Hi Anna,
Thanks for the info on Frosty Paws. I will pick some up for Binx tomorrow...assuming they involve no chewing...he is on that restriction for at least one week. He is eating really well, again. I adopted him on a Tuesday night. I weighed him that following Sunday, and he weighed 49.6. Then, that next Tuesday, he had some work done on his mouth. The next Saturday, he weighed 44.9!! A five pound drop. Very troubling for me. Then, this week, Thursday, he had his mouth operated on. So, I am very interested to see what he will weigh tomorrow, Sunday. The girl at Starbucks told me this am that he looked like he put on weight. So, here is hoping he did!

When we walked this am, he was a pee-a-saurus...I don't know why. Maybe because he is taking in more liquids from the wet gloppy food? We stopped at the park, and he played with a left over soccer ball..and was totally acting like a puppy should, including biting my ankles! I look pretty silly walking with a St. B attached to my leg. I am being so careful with his mouth, and thought the soccer ball would be ok, since it is too big to fit inside. He just finished his breakfast- 10 oz of canned...and I will move to two cans- 20 oz, at lunchtime. He is snoring away on his couch right now, probably dreaming of Frosty Paws as I type!

Frosty paws should be fine...no chewing involved

The peeing thing, could be that he is starting to mark. As he gets closer to 6-7 months he will probally do that more...esp. if you start to see the leg lift.

Sounds like he is feelingmuch better!! I'm sure he'll start to gain weight now that he mouth doesn't hurt so much!

I will be in Cincinnati May 13 (maybe 12-14?) for business...maybe I'll get a chance to come see the baby boy?

Good for Binx! The worst should be over and his demeanor indicates he is feeling much better. There certainly are times when being a NAWTEEDAWG warms the Mom's heart. I think this is one.

Cinder and Smoke,

Hey, you guys read my mind.I heard some doggies can
do that. I was just wondering about Binx too. Haven't
heard anything for awhile. How ya doing Binx?

[Cataholic]

Well, here we are on week post the search and rescue for the little white things, and what a difference a week makes. Just this am, I had Binx on the floor, and was doing a secret count...and saw about 7 little white things on the bottom jaw..and just couldn't get him to hold still enough to count anything on the top. I will try to get him to show me something up there, soon. Today, we had a little bit of bleeding, but, I am not concerned. It really was just a little, and probablly a result of the gnawing he does on everything..arms, legs, toys, stuffies, etc.

He has been eating pretty good. Yesterday I stopped the pain medication, AND started adding the dry food to his bowl. I am still soaking the dry food 4 hours, and today, I tried using electric beaters, and it did a good job. I can tell Mr. Binx prefers straight wet $1.05 canned food!!! I am trying to keep him close to 6 cups a day...and that might seem like alot to alot of you, but, keep in mind, he is growing like a weed, and he is a giant breed.

His two newest things? Barking at my feet..usually with my shoe IN his mouth, making the bark all muffled. Funny, but annoying to walk like that. The more I scold him, the funnier he thinks it is, and we go on until I head wrestle him to the ground, OR, I run outside.

Second thing? Well, Binx thinks he is a giant CAT! (I knew it wouldn't take long). He has managed to crawl through the cat hole in the basement door. At first, it was just the melon. Then, it was the front arms. Next thing I knew, his WHOLE self was through the hole, down the steps, pawing at the door I just exited through. I still drove off...around the block, and came back- maybe two minutes later. Who was staring at me from the living room? Cat/dog, Mr. Binx. So, he can get through it both ways. I figure he has maybe one more month of that, at best.

We got our first ice cream together Tuesday night. Vanilla in a bowl for him...yummy, he said. We sat on the curb and ate it, and got plenty of smiles. I got my own, in case you are wondering.

We are due for a check up on May 13. I am anxious to hear the prognosis/plan. I beleive he is gaining weight. The scale was acting funny at Petsmart last week. (Strange, my home scale seems out of wack, too).

That is all from here at the Sir Jury Center!!!

[mugsy]

Thanks for the update Jo, sounds like things are progressing quite nicely. I see you spoil him like we spoil ours with ice cream!! I'm glad to hear that little white things are showing up and that he is gaining weight.

[Cinder & Smoke]

[Cataholic]

Oh, one other Binx trick...standing on the side boards to my bed, crying/whining to get up there with me. I turn my head away, and just ignore him!!! I am a little afraid he will learn that he CAN get up there by climbing on the hope chest at the foot of the bed, then, walking onto the bed. That will be the "Hueston? We have a problem"!!!!!!!!!!!
