    He is a pistol too... what a personality! He was barking, or should I say, yelling at me this morning to hurry up and put his food down. He was so impatient with me!
    Yep, that's my Logan! It is always about him!!!

    I love when Gavin acts spunky! It's not as much as when he was a pup , but he still acts playful every once in a while. Last night he was popping his head out of the stroller 'sun roof' on the way home :)

    Ha, ha... I got the image in my mind of a 'Sheltie in a box' like the old time 'Jack in the box'!

    By the time I got my phone out, he stopped. But it was adorable!

    B66B83A7-699E-4F33-ABCB-F58619143939.jpeg Logan update:

    I thought we were doing so well. Logan has been eating his new food with gusto! However, his stool was so soft and I called the doctor about it. He has been on an antibiotic since he was in the hospital and when he came home. The vet said to try yogurt which I had already tried and did not help at all. Then he said to try a probiotic which I had on hand. I broke it up and put it in his food as it was a chewable tablet.

    He started to eat his food and then walked away! So I put the probiotic in his pill pocket and he ate it. He has had three meals since that incident with no problems.

    Yesterday I decided to give everyone a pawicure and brush out! I did Logan last. When I had him on his side I was surprised to see how big his belly was. It seemed bloated like it was filled with fluid. Now, I will be very honest as I am a worry wart by nature! Logan has been diagnosed with a heart murmur and I am wondering if he is going into congestive heart failure! I will ask my vet if he feels that Logan might need the fluid drained... or that I am just imagining all this!

    I will call the vet on Tuesday. He did eat two kidney treats and I am going to go to the pet store today to see if I can find Tripe. They can have that without ill effects with kidney issues.

    He seems to be resting comfortably on the cool tile floor in the bathroom now.

    I am really upset that he will not eat this food he seemed to like so much initially! I bought two cases of it! Now he won’t touch it!!

    I was so pleased at his progress and thought we had turned a corner... sad!

    Well Beau is so sweet and concerned about Logan!

    I made a hard boiled egg and he ate it! I tried to give him a bit of his old food that he refused to eat when this whole thing started...

    He ate it!!! I have no idea what is going on in his head!
