Humpty Dumpty

Woof!

Just a quick blog biscuit today, I was naughty pup pup and tripped my Igaboo down the stairs, she was hurt quite badly, but I didn't mean too,and I'm very very sorry Igaboo, I'm over giving puppy kisses to her to make up for it!

It all happened by accident you see, Igaboo was going down the stairs with some laundry and I was being a silly thing and playing around her feet, normally this isn't a problem,but because she couldn't see me,she tripped over my little self and ended up tumbling down the stairs, she took a pretty bad dive, if I do say so myself! She needed to go to hospital and everything! But luckily nothing was broken. After hospital, she came back a bit dopey from the medication they gave her but she was okay.

So now she's resting in bed and helping me type up this blog biscuit, as you can see in our picture together, although she had to move me because it was hurting her arm! So beware your four legged poochy pal and the dangers of stairs, you never know when an accident will occur!

Moody Pup Pup

Woof!

Hello again all, hope you're new year is getting off to a lovely start, can't believe we're nearly a month in already! Anyways, I've had exciting progress on my quest to become a big doggie, I have gone on heat for the first time, and my gosh! It makes me a moody lil' bitch, well I am bitch aren't I?!

So what are the first signs of heat you ask? Well the first sign is the boy doggies become interested, they can smell it long before any physical symptoms arise, so be careful, I'm a lady pup pup, no funny business for me! Anyways, you'll also notice my temperament will change to make me moody and touchy, like PMS for dogs, it's very noticeable, Igaboo picked up on me barking more, and having a tendency to rip up my toys rather than play with them, I'm normally very kind to them. Another early symptom is my vulva, and possibly my breasts swelling, and having a reaction that is snappy to being handles in these areas, so beware little nips and bites because I really don't wanna be fussed over. You may also notice some blood discharge, which is never nice, but normal, so don't worry!

Dogs tend to go on cycles every six months as a norm, but we vary from pup to pup, so keep an eye on your own four legged friend, it's also important to keep an eye on my heat cycles because it denotes when I can be spayed, which I think Igaboo has planned for me, she keeps this a secret,but I think she doesn't want me having puppies because she would have to keep them all!

So I'm off to bark and whinge at Igaboo, for no reason, I'm just moody ok?! Leave me alone,it's just water retention, woof woof woof woof woof!

Dexy Does... Baths!

Woof!

Hello all! Today's exciting Dexy Does... is that ever so tricky matter of puppy dogs and baths, and we all know how troublesome that can be! There's a long running joke that us pooches don't like baths, and this is true for most dogs, but then most dogs love water so it's all about making the dreaded task fun rather than an unwanted chore.

The first thing then is to make it a normal routine thing for your pup pup, as soon as you get your little mutty friend make sure you introduce them to the idea of baths early on, and be careful to not install any negative emotions into it, constantly reassure your pooch with verbal cues and be ready to get a bit wet! Next, make it fun! Doggies love swimming, so fill the bath right up, showers have a tendency to scare us, so a full bath is a fun swimming pool for a little pup pup like me, and then Igaboo makes it even more fun by adding rubber ducks for me to chase around whilst I swim.

Next, and this is most important, is what products to use, never use anything meant for humans as this could harm me, instead go to a reputable pet store and get the right product for your type of furry friend, I have special puppy shampoo that is kind to my fur and skin as well as no tears! Look out for products for older dogs, or long/short hair pups, or like what i use, adolescent dogs, by using the right product means you wont harm me and also give me the best care for my skin and coat. In between baths it's good to have some special dog wipe downs just to spruce me up on rainy days or if I get dirty doing naughty things like bin diving.

So that's all there is to it for baths, just remember to rinse me well and dry me off thoroughly, and probably the best tip Igaboo can give you is to wear old clothes because you will get dirty and wet! It's so fun shaking all the water over Igaboo and making her moist all over! She just laughs at me though and makes fun of me saying I look like a drowned rat, which isn't very nice. Bad Igaboo!

Next time on Dexy Does... I shall have a peek a boo at doggy socialising. Have fun 'til then folks!
