Hi, everyone! Its me, little Lily!
So, tomorrow is the big day for me! Mama got a low cost spay certificate from Friends Of Animals, and last week I went to the vet to get my preliminary physical exam. The vet who saw me was really nice! Her name was Amy. She was really gentle and she said I was so cute and so brave! Dr. Amy said I am a very, very healthy dog... except that I need to lose about 2 pounds. (Maybe its from all those treats!) She said the spay surgery is so safe, and its very, very, very, very rare for things to go wrong, especially for a dog as healthy as me!
Tomorrow, at 7:30 am, Mama will be dropping me off. I know Mama is so worried about it. Its also her first day back at school, and she thinks she's going to be worrying about me while she's in her class... but Dr. Amy promised to give Mama a call as soon as the surgery is over, so she can quit worrying! Then, at 4:30 pm, Mama will be able to pick me up (the spay certificate doesn't cover an overnight stay, but Dr. Amy said it will be better for me to go home anyway because she can see I'm so attached to Mama) and she has the whole next day off to spend with me!
Today Mama spent time playing outside with me and inside, and she even got me and Trixie each a new toy! She found these toys at Petsmart... the big giraffe was holding the baby giraffe, but Mama pulled them apart so we could each have one. She said, when she saw that toy, she thought, "How cute! A big giraffe and a little giraffe... and I have a big dog and a little dog! Perfect!"
Of course Trixie is nibbling her big giraffe, which is what she does with all her toys. Nibble nibble nibble!
And of course I took my little giraffe and started shaking it like crazy! I stopped shaking it for one minute for the picture because Mama said when I shook it the picture would come out all blurry.
The bad news is, I also had to take a bath... because Mama said she didn't want me stinking for Dr. Amy. (I get dirty easily because Trixie likes to chew on me when we play! The other bad news is, I cannot eat any food after midnight... which Mama thinks is funny, for some reason. She keeps calling me her little gremlin! What is that all about?
But one more good news is... remember the puppies from our Puppypalooza post? The last two were adopted yesterday! Yay!
Okay, wish me luck everyone! By this time tomorrow, I will be home, snoozing! I'll tell Trixie to update you all so you know that I got through it okay.
Bye friends! I love you!
