Michaelangelo's Dental Adventures
This is not Michaelangelo's first dance with the dentist!!! This would be his third
time having teeth removed!! The first two times were with his vets, The Hawthrone
Vet Clinic in Portland, Oregon. They are not a "cheap" vet by any means, and the last
dental cleaning/teeth pulling cost approximately $1100 or so....This one he just had was
about the same.
I heard about Forever Pets from someone I bumped into while walking one of my
pup clients! I told them of my woes, having to come up with quite a sum of
money to get him sorted out! He insisted I check out Forever Pets Dental Clinic
in Vancouver, Washington, just in case they can help me. Indeed, I contacted them,
made an appointment for Michael and for a mere $25 I had an exam with the Vet
to determine with his records, age, needs, etc. he was a good client for them!
Indeed, they were happy to meet Michel and agreed wholeheartedly that he
would be green light to go! He ended up having 3 roots and 5 teeth all taken out,
one being one of his fangs, bless him, that was the last one....With quite a bit of
peridontal disease, we have him all polished up, on the mend, and he will be getting
what teeth he has left BRUSHED DAILY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Michelangelo’s Urgent Dental Surgery Fund-Raiser
I noticed a few months ago it was looking pretty scary in there, even though I was trying to brush his teeth more and more – with natural dogs toothpaste….anyway, he was seen back in October I believe, and it was established then he would need some teeth to come out and now time has fast-forwarded to March 2013 and he has an infection in his gums and has to have four to five teeth removed.

Holidaze and Friends....
This time of year is a big adjustment for us....We definitely prefer the sunshine and warmth of summer...Our walks get shorter in the winter, cuz I don't really like the rain and being soaked and filthy...But we make the best of it and walk lots more on days when it's not wet outside...
Here I am on Thanksgiving day after feasting on some yummy stuff: carrots, sweet potatoes, and organic chicken! YUM!!!
Hangin' out with our friend Dennis for some lap cuddle...
Michaelangelo has friends and fans everywhere! This is his new friend Gilly, whom he loves to kiss! I do believe Michael misses his kitties he used to live with, Shadow, Rhaja, Pumpkin Pie, and Turzia, oh and there was Moochie Pon for a little while too...

The Dawg's Gone Raw!!!!
I've been feeding Michael "real" food like chicken, sweet potatoes, eggs, for a long time now, and of course, he occasionally steals a piece of pizza, or sandwich or some other such "human" food item off my plate as to heartily annoy me for about 3 minutes. He knows what he likes, and I tell you, it's damn near everything!!

Where There's Sun, There's Kids! Where There's Sun & Kids, There's Michael!!!
Kids really are fascinated with Michael and I think love him even MORE so because not only is he one really handsome and friendly dog, he's pretty small for such a powerful hunter dog!!
Ah how we love to see our shadow...Thank goodness summer eventually comes!

Always Adventures and Always Making New Friends!!!
So my mom was calling around all over the place to find a puppy place that pups could spend the night. All she found were places with cages! And she found out that I was a little tiny bit overdue for my every-3-years Rabies vaccination. My mom is not a big huge fan of having me go through things I might not have to for the sake of western medicine and opts for holistic health care whenever possible (see her posts about our Hawthrorne Vets!) but Rabies is required by law, so off to get the Rabies we went...
As much as I love my amazing doctor I didn't want to have any more anything done after my teeth cleaning recently!! But it went just fine. My mom is a bit of a wimp, though. She had one of the vet assistants come in and hold me while Dr. Yale administered the shot.
My mom found this lovely lady and her family in Seattle through a friend of a friend offering a warm cozy place for pups to camp out for the night!! I could not believe my luck!! I got to go stay with a big sweet pup called Riggs, and Bridit, her husband and their two super fun kids who played with me for hours and wore me out! (here's a picture Bridgit sent my mom of me zonked out!)
My mom made a really cool video of her and her friends' trip to Seattle, she loves taking pictures you can see it here: http://www.youtube.com/littlemississues#p/u/0/i3RuxgXMQE8
I love bumping into a group of kids in the park!!! My mom says "kids" and I just run for 'em! Kids like to cuddle and they seem to giggle a lot when they get to pet me! I take all the lovin' I can find!!
Always fun making new friends! and My mom is a little behind on posthing but has more photos and a really cute video of me and all my friends is in the works! So come back soon!
