My Sweet, Beautiful Penny

Posted by: tiffanypinkdog on: January 30, 2006

The doctor came this morning to help Penny die. I will miss her big girly barks, the way she’d dance for me, her pretty smile, and everything else about her. I’m heartbroken–we got ten more days with her, and it still wasn’t enough. Forever is the only thing that’s long enough. Here are some pics [...]

Old Dogs and New Tricks

Posted by: tiffanypinkdog on: January 24, 2006

A few days ago, Penny seemed to stablize. I didn’t really believe it, but now I do. I think that old dog–thanks to a few new tricks–will be around for quite a bit longer. Well, measurable in weeks rather than days, anyway.
Her back legs are completely useless. What we’ve observed over the years is that [...]

Bloody?

Posted by: tiffanypinkdog on: January 20, 2006

In honor of the fact that I was supposed to get my period yesterday and didn’t, I would like to tell the story of my very first period.
In the 5th grade, we were seperated from the boys and probably watched a film, but what I remember most was a little blue booklet from Kotex that [...]

Penny

Posted by: tiffanypinkdog on: January 19, 2006

My sweet Penny is dying. Please think of us, and wish me the strength and wisdom to do the right thing when the right time comes. I am always afraid that I will wait too long or react too quickly.
She’s a sweet baby dog. Sometimes I wonder, for only a second, why I take [...]

New Carpet

Posted by: tiffanypinkdog on: January 17, 2006

Here is the new carpet. As you can see, it looks just like normal carpet. Bessie and Penny still prefer to lay in beds…

…but Ripple enjoys the new carpet very much and chooses to lay on it instead, most of the time.

Day Two: Colon Blow

Posted by: tiffanypinkdog on: January 17, 2006

Yes, I started my treatment yesterday. Nothing yet. Of course not; it takes several days for the stuff to work its way into your system. I have not yet heard from Sara and her colonic. I think I’ll give her a call this afternoon…
Should I rename this “Pink Dog’s Poop Blog”?

Carpeting the house

Posted by: tiffanypinkdog on: January 13, 2006

Penny had a series of accidents in the same spot over and over again last week. Try as I might, I could not get the scent out of the carpet. I have a great carpet shampooer but it was no match for this repeated assault. The stench in the den was unbearable to me.
So [...]

Waiting

Posted by: tiffanypinkdog on: January 12, 2006

I am still awaiting the arrival of my colon cleansing kit, or Colon Blow or Worm Stuff as we are calling it around the house. Don’t worry. I will keep you posted. I know you’re all waiting with worm-baited breath!

Colon Cleansing, Constipation, Parasites, IBS

Posted by: tiffanypinkdog on: January 9, 2006

DISCLAIMER: I know that many of you will dismiss the concerns I am about to disclose as hysteria. I know that. So there is no need to tell me so in the comments. It’ll only upset me. If you think I am hysterical, just laugh to yourself, privately.
I believe I may have internal parasites. I [...]

The Biggest Loser and 750 lb Man

Posted by: tiffanypinkdog on: January 3, 2006

Yesterday I watched something like 12 hours of The Biggest Loser marathon on Bravo network. It was amazing. Those people came in fat and left so fit. They didn’t even look like the same human beings by the end of it.
So I thought I’d cap it off by watching The 750-lb Man (on Discovery [...]
