The indignity of not being able to do things for yourself can all get a bit much. Oh I know I should be grateful that I have a human to help, but just sometimes I\u2019d rather look after myself. It was bad enough having to go to the vet again this week because my anal glands had become blocked again. Surprisingly, I was a good dog. I stood there calmly allowing the vet to do what needed doing. I tried not to think about exactly where her finger was stuck and just looked ahead thinking about Bonios. You have to do whatever works for you, but Bonios seem a good a thing as any to focus on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Anyway, that bit is not the indignity I\u2019m referring too. As a result of the problem that caused I have slight haemorrhoids. I know, I know, it happens to the best of us. However, rather than take me back to the vet when it has not immediately cleared up, our Mistress has decided to apply some cream for me. That\u2019s the indignity! Is there no end to the things humans have to do for me? I can\u2019t get the cap off the tube with my paws, let alone squeeze just a small amount out. If the help had stopped there it wouldn\u2019t have been so bad, but why, oh why does she have to do the whole thing for me? How can I maintain the image of a big strong Adonis of a dog with a human applying cream to my back end?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On a brighter note, from the independence front, our Mistress has put the ramp in the car so we can use that to get in and out instead of her having to pick us up. Oh it\u2019s all right for Wilma, she could probably jump over the car if she wanted to, but the rest of us are finding it a bit high off the ground. Alfie\u2019s ok as he sits on the back seat and that\u2019s still the same height as the old one. It\u2019s the boot that\u2019s changed. Our Mistress says it\u2019s something to do with some cars having batteries, but as ours doesn\u2019t that makes no sense to me as a simple dog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
