Well, I was a brave girl last night. I didn't even complain once when Mamma put me in the car and drove me to the vet. Of course, though, i firmly beleive that if you can't see it, it doesn't exist. Sooooo, when the vet came into the consult room with a tray, i JUST KNEW i was in for a shot, and of course what does any smart newf do in a situation like that?
That's right, the head went burried under Mamma's arm!!!!
Wouldn't you know it though, i just ended up embarrassing myself - there was no shot, just a clean up of the hotspot with a bit of solution - which actually felt pretty darn good! I even ended up making up with the vet and giving her a big sloppy one all the way from her eyebrows to her chin, hee hee hee, score one for the newf!!!
Well, woofs and tailwags to all,
Nanook (aka NookyNoo)

Nanook,
I'm glad you didn't have to get a shot. They're not so bad though. Mama tells me I've had a bunch, but I never felt any of them.

Newfie kisses,
Katie

Little brother Louis sends licks to make your hot spot better.

I, Nanook, attempt to hide underneath the little bench in the vet's office when it is time for a shot. Only my head fits though.

Hi!, this is Ricky from the Newfie Nut House. I know what you mean Nanook, but I found out that hiding my head doesn't work, first I end up "getting it" in the end anyway, and, as you may know, my nickname is "Mr. Smooch." If I hide my head, I can't smooch anyone, and as the World's Best Smoocher, I have to maintain a certain number of smooches a day, so I can't miss out on any opportunity. I was at the Vet on Monday, and managed to smooch not only the entire staff but my Uncle Tim (the Vet) and Aunt Karen (Vet's wife. Then I got to smooch about 5 people waiting to see Uncle Tim. It was great, my smooching quota is 9 ahead for the month. Smooches to all of you, and of course I can't sign off without leaving my trademark; "Woo-Woo-Woo!

Hi Nookers and Boofhead! Princess and Isaac are big boofers. Tank Talks a lot but only barks when he sees a really big beast for the first time - like an elk or a bear. You gals are soooo lucky to have a ducky pond to swim in! Nanook of the North also has one. We have a muddy back yard...

Keep us informed of your adventures and if you have time pop over to our blog to see us!
