Winnie


It should come as no surprise that in addition to the myriad mental health problems rampant in my family that my dogs would have some issues of their own. Take Winnie for example.

She is a hypochondriac. If anyone else in the house has a boo-boo, she pretends to have one too; even going so far as to fake a limp or simply whine and look as miserable as possible.

Every summer she picks a spot to lick at and lick at and lick at. There is nothing actually wrong at the site of the tongue-lashing until of course she spends every waking moment bathing it.

This morning after panting and whining enough to wake me at 5 AM, she is now sporting a gorgeous hot pink vet wrap bandage. And limping. But secretly quite pleased with herself and the attention.

She also gets as close as caninely possible whenever she sees a camera.

She is a stinker. I think she has PTSD from being born int he local shelter and watching all but one of her littermates die.

Her schedule is free for extended playdates and sleepovers. I will pay you to take her.

I will take her to visit the Lily-Dawg and all her new siblings. I'd a done that for free, but you can still pay me if you want...
