Thank you so much for all of your words of widom and your comments today. It made me feel good. It was very stressful today. First off, it was not a bite but instead 4 paw gashes. Thank goodness. Also lukcily Max was getting his 2nd DtaP as well so at least we are being cautious to not get a bad bacteria infection.

Max has been fussy all day and had trouble sleeping between teething, gashes to his face and a shot in his left thigh. It was a long day for all of us. Max weighs 20 pounds, 6 ounces and he is 27 1/2 inches long. 75% across the board. Dr. Daphne Goldberg is wonderful and I am so lucky to have her as Max’s doctor. It almost makes me jealous of him. LOL.

So we have decided that we cannot take a chance with the dog. Stan was my first dog and I only got him one month before I mert Scott so it has been his dog as well. But we cannot take a chance. Stan has always been fiesty when it comes to food and bones but to think that we will always ba ble to catrch this is silly. There will be one time when we don’t and who knows. My sister got bit by a dog and she was 5 and had 69 stiches. She was lucky. So we will need to find Stan a home with a nice family that does not have kids. I am sure we will find one but it stinks and i am sad and angry and sad and angry.

As for foods, Max loves green beans and hates peas. Loves bannanas and pears and avcocado and kind of likes carrots..loves winter squash and loves prunes like his momma.

And a big thanks again to all of my blogger buddies who made the day feel ok.

Dog Bite

Here is the damage with a smile.

As I said lasgt week, Stan had surgery on his knee and so I know that he is not his regular self b ut this am I fed the dogs and the baby was near (Totally my fuckin fault) and bam, he jnumped on the baby and bit him on the lip and pawed at his face. Blood, blood and more blood. I cleaned up the cut with hydrogen peroxide and neosporin and put a homeopathic remedy on his cut as well. He would not let me put ice on it. So he has a busted lip and a gashed cheek. But he is still smiling.

So for me! I am not smiling. Stan has done this to me on my hand 5 times and it always is about food or a bone but what happen when Max starts to crawl? What happens when there are 2 babies running around with food in thier hands? OPk, yes stay in the day but what happens?? I am so pissed off. I am so upset. We had friends who puyt the dog down for this reason and we stopped talking to them but after seeing Max’s face-well I guess I understand but I WOULD NEVER PUT A DOG DOWN!! I just do not know whnat to do. Yes, it was my fault for not having the baby far away but at 6:30 in the morning with a baby and 2 dogs I am not always thinking. I guess with Stan I always hnave to think, Stan being the killer pug.

Ugh, this sucks and I am not sure what to dio or how to react.
