Lots of Little Maggie Moments

LONG over due for an update on Miss Maggie Moo!

I can't begin to say how thankful we are to have the ability to call a vet after hours.... We have taken advantage of this 3 times in the past few weeks!  Thanks Cindy for all of your help!! (Maybe I should think about that pet insurance??)

Call 1) Maggie was puking after her vaccines.  We gave her Iam's Low Residue wet puppy food - She couldn't eat it fast enough!  She just loved it!
Call 2) The little stinker fell going up my parent's steps and hurt her paw.  She wouldn't walk on it and I was out of town.  My poor Mom was a wreck and felt horrible.  I told her she's fine (and thankfully she was!)
Call 3)  Miss Maggie found a plastic baggy on top of her kennel (my fault) and ate half of it while we were gone.  Lucky for her she got more of her favorite Iam's wet dog food! after that incident!


Maggie wanted to come on our trip, too!

Maggie now weighs 8.5lbs - what a little porker!  She graduates from puppy school next Monday - so excited!! She's done very well and we'll hopefully have her go on to Level 1.  I think it's funny that she's going on - she's the smallest breed enrolled! :-)

Maggie's first pony tail

This past weekend we were also busy with a garage sale.  Maggie did so well!  She just sat there with her tail wagging until people noticed her!  People would say how amazed they were with how good she was around people.  She loved when kids came up to her because I let them give her a treat!  She's such a well socialized puppy!  We also had fun putting a "priceless" price tag on her.  Everyone thought that was cute!

PRICELESS :-)
Her new thing is to bring you a toy and if you dont pay attention to her she'll keep shoving it in your hand.  If you walk away she'll push the toy against your feet as you walk!  What a needy little puppy! :-)

I'm still working on getting Maggie to hold her pee while in her kennel.  She's up to 8 hours as of this morning!  She must have been pretty tired last night... but it was nice being able to sleep for 8 whole hours.  Even though she woke up at 630am we are going to stay up and get some chores done before my husband comes home.  I'm looking forward to him being home for 8 whole days coming up next week.  He will get a taste of how much work it is to take care of her!  Can't wait!!! Muah ha ha ha!

Maggie ZONKED out - She sleeps under her kennel pad... not sure why!
