Hello Friends.
Last week I was in the mountains with my MOM. We were walking around. I was up ahead of her, you know blazing the trail, and she thought she noticed something on my leg. She called me back to take a closer look. What she saw stopped her heart. I warn you that it is sort of gross, so scroll down if ya don't want to see.
Not sure what happened. Maybe I snagged my back leg on a stick or more likely a sneak attack by a pack of squirrels. Anyway, long story short, she took me to Dr. Eddie and he stapled me up and told me I could not play, hike, get wet, run, basically I could have no fun for at least 10 days. This is very hard for me. The following video is what I do EVERY night since that day to try and convince my MOM to play with me.
The woman is as strong as steal and will not give in. I keep going to the entertainment center because in that drawer is my laser light and I want her to play laser light with me. But NOOOOOO she won't! She says I have to wait until Dr. Eddie says I can. Maybe I should go to his house and convince him I am OK to play. Sheesh I am fine, just look at me. I am sure in a day or two more I can wear MOM down and I will be chasing the light soon. And really I am doing just fine.
Blessings,
Goose
Oh man, it's totally not fair Goose! I believe you, you look top notch...I say, keep on trying to convince your Mom!! I'm going to borrow some of your techniques on Domeek!!
ReplyDeleteOh, poor Goose. Keep bugging MOM and she may give in a little. Hope you are cleared to play soon.
ReplyDeleteKelsey

OUCH Goose! That was quite the bite back that stick gave ya :( Glad you're all fixed up. Do what your Mom and the Doc say and you'll be back playin in no time! :) You are very persistent my furiend BOL :)
ReplyDeleteWaggin at ya,
Roo
Oh no Goose!! Hope that heals up really quick. There are sticks that need a good slobbering out there. Feel better!
ReplyDeleteWe get the no getting wet, no hiking, no running but what's a little play with the laser light? Poor Goose. We're sure your Mom won't be able to resist you by Day 3 if you keep at it. :p
ReplyDeleteSometimes mom knows best and you will be playing again in no time ....just get better that is the main thing
ReplyDeletePoor thing...I sure hope you get all better asap!
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear that you got hurt. We can't watch your video because we don't have unlimited Internet. We miss out on so much of the fun.
ReplyDeleteNow I am with you Goose Brother, but My Vickie says that You should de excactly what Dr. Eddie and Dr. Baker tell you two. I mean, two of my favorite vets said....QUIET for 10 days......That is like a second opinion for humans.
ReplyDeleteWe really missed you on the walk but can you imagine all the little critters floating around in the river and if any of them got in your sore, well, the havoc. You would be sicker than sick.
So for me, My Vickie, your mom and all of blogville, Please do what your doctors said......its only for a little while.
Love ya
bert
I'm sure it must be difficult to keep quiet, but we all want you to heal fast so like Bert said, "QUIET for 10 days!" It will be over before you know it.

Well the end of the video was my favorite. I think he ended up turning his "please play with me" into a win since he got you to laugh. He needs some cheetos in a Kong toy! That might keep him entertained in a calm way...though, I used to put cheese in a Kong for Lilly and she'd just run it to the top of the stairs and drop it so that all the cheese popped out as it fell down the stairs. Hmmm...Goose, we're sending you healing wishes for play time coming sooner than expected!
ReplyDeleteHappy seeing beautful!
Oh Goose, thats scary, I bet it was a Hal-O-Weenie goon tree rat that bite you. Please take care not to tear it open.

Oh no! I hope you heal quickly....
ReplyDeleteOh no Goose! We're so sorry to see that you are injured. Please take it easy like you're supposed to. We need you to get better and healthy once again. I just know that your Mom is giving you all kinds of attention and extra loving so enjoy it! Milk it for all it's worth!
ReplyDeleteI know you're missing your furends and running and playing and swimming and fishing and stick getting and so much more, but ya gotta heal first.
If you need some good (cute) nurses just let us know and Muffin and I will be right over.
Hugs,
Lily Belle
Oh Goose, you poor baby.. It does look sore. You need it to heal, so be patient, youz could make it worse, and playing will be off the menu for a lot longer.. xx00xx
ReplyDeleteMollie and Alfie
Oh goodness Goose! I feel so bad for you not being able to play but you have to follow the doctors orders, right! I'm sure being vocal with your Momma is going to wear you out so you can rest up and let that leg heal. I know it's hard to keep a good dog down though. I loved the way you got right in your Momma's face at the end there. It had me laughing right along with her! :)
ReplyDeleteOh poor Goose!! I understand not being able to get out and play! Best to behave and follow the doctor's orders and you will be outside in no time!
ReplyDelete"sort of gross?" Goose, I almost lost my breakfast when I saw your owwie. You must have some seriously deranged squirrels out there to do that to you.
ReplyDeleteOMD OMD GOOSE I am so very much sorry that you got hurt and can not play. BUTT you really stated your case very much like a LAWYER in Opening Statements... Like... OPEN the DRAWER and get out my LASER LIGHT... right NOW mom. I KNOW IT IS IN THERE and I WANT it!
ReplyDeleteWow... you could be on Court TV.
Ouch! Don't mess around with injuries like that, Goose. If the dogtor says no playing, then no playing!
ReplyDeleteGet well soon pal, hope it will be better in shortest time. My dad hoped that I would not so much bark if I'm a view years older - Thanks for showing him (and let him HEAR) the reality, hahahahahaha
ReplyDeleteOh, Goose! Goose, my brother! You poor guy! I think maybe if you tell your MOM you're ready to play just a WEE bit louder, she'll get the message. Zim recommends that you try the Sad Eyes Look on her if that doesn't work. Oh, moms can be SO HARD about things sometimes!!!
ReplyDeleteIf she doesn't cave, we hope the time passes fast for ya. As they say in that Obedience School place (not that either one of us have ever been!) == HEAL!
Ha woo.
Luv,
Dave
Oh you poor baby that does look quite painful. Feel better
ReplyDeleteBenny & Lily
Awww, Goosie -- My family has a laser light and some flashlights, and I would love it if they let me play with them ALL the time! :)
ReplyDeleteWoofs & huggies, <3

OH MY DOGS GOOSE
ReplyDeleteAS WE LIKE TO SAY HERE IN THE SOUTH, YOU ARE GIVING SOMEBODY DOWN IN THE COUNTRY ABOUT YOUR CURRENT SITUATION!! MOM SAYS THAT PHRASE MEANS YOU ARE USING HBO WORDS ....MOL I TOLD HER NO THAT YOU WERE JUST SAYING MOM PLEASE COME ON MOM PLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSEEEE. WE HOPE AND PURR YOUR
WOUND HEALS QUICKLY. I SUSPECT IT WAS A SNEAK ATTACK FROM ALIEN SQUIRRELS.
BTW YOU HAVE A MOST GORGEOUS SPEAKING VOICE.
HUGS MADI YOUR BFFF
I'm glad you weren't hurt worse. Try to stay home while it heals.
ReplyDeleteNubbin wiggles,
Oskar
Goose...when mymom tells me NO she means NO in that mom robot voice of hers...so so glad you are getting better tho...listen to your dr. and your mom...have you got your treats yet?
ReplyDeleteStella Rose
No Goose, we have to say you put up a very good argument. And you were very persistent as well. And we can add that when we saw you on Sunday, you were looking like you were healing very well. BUTT . . . you better do what the doc says, AND you know it is very hard for your mom to tell you "NO" so we think she will get you a present very soon.
ReplyDeleteYour pals,
Murphy & Stanley
Oh Goose, we are so sorry you have to stay calm, that would be very hard for us too. But best to follow the doctor's orders. We can't believe how stoic you must be not to have even screeched when that happened. Good thing Mom caught it so you wouldn't get a nasty infection there. Guess this means no swimming for a while either. heal well, dear friend.
ReplyDeleteWoos - Phantom, Thunder, Ciara, and Lightning
Maybe you can play hide and seek games with treats in the house or something? This video really got Starr's ears all raised and alert.
ReplyDeleteGoose...heal!
ReplyDeleteOMD! Goose!!! That looks AWFUL!! Ma got all queasy lookin' at it (the woman has no stomach for yucky stuffs at all!) I hopes you heal REAL FAST, so you can play some laser tag!!! Good luck tryin' to talk your Moms into playin'!
ReplyDeleteKisses,
Ruby
