Shadow has a poorly toe. We don\u2019t know how it started, the vet thinks it is something like a wart, but then she got an infection in it and some ingrowing hair \u2013 actually it was probably the hair that led to the infection. Anyway, the infection has cleared up but the growth is rubbing on the next toe and is very sore. She went to see our vet yesterday and has had a biopsy taken to check what it is and is having it operated on on Monday to remove the growth so it won\u2019t rub anymore. She\u2019s not like us boys \u2013 she\u2019s really brave at the vet and puts us to shame, but she says she isn\u2019t looking forward to it very much.<\/p>\n
Megan must be close to her season starting. She\u2019s behaving like a loopy dog. When she goes out for a walk she\u2019s chasing after everything and at home doesn\u2019t know what to do with herself. It\u2019s also making Ari slightly crazy and my Mistress is fed up with both of them. The main problem is that my Mistress was going to do something called baseline progesterone testing for this season to try to understand the pattern of Megan\u2019s seasons better so that they can get her pregnant \u2013 however, the time when she\u2019ll need her blood tests my Mistress won\u2019t be here to take her to the vet because she\u2019ll be in Belgium with me. Megan says she\u2019s happy as she wasn\u2019t looking forward to all those blood tests but my Mistress is a bit fed up. Ah well \u2013 it\u2019s typical.<\/p>\n
My Mistress feels cheated today. She spent most of yesterday convinced it was Friday and now has to do Friday all over again. I said it wasn\u2019t so bad as Friday is quite a good day so two of them is a bonus. She should be grateful not to have two Mondays in one week. Her response was that she would prefer two Saturdays, but as she does much the same thing on a Saturday as on a Friday I don\u2019t see the problem.<\/p>\n
