Drink The Poison Lightly

Can’t exactly tan with you right there Roxie. 

Took the dogs in to get spayed/neutered yesterday. They had to be there at 7:15. I filled out the paperwork, then dropped them off. Dexter wouldn’t leave with the lady, so I had to walk him back to his kennel. Roxie wouldn’t go either, but she small enough for the lady to drag her.

After we got back from dropping them off, we had a little time before Zane’s dentist appointment. We cuddled, dog free, on the couch and watched South Park on Netflix. He loves that stinkin show.

We went to his appointment and they couldn’t figure out his insurance. He didn’t have his ID number so they told him to call his work and get it. They didn’t have it either. The insurance lady finally tracked it down after Zane got checked in and got all his cleaning and stuff done. He was a little mad that his coverage isn’t coming up like it should and they are only covering 50% instead of the 85% his work said it should cover.. So hopefully they get that figured out. He goes back in for some fillings on the 7th.

Afterward we went to lunch. Buffalo Wild Wings. It was his first time. I still think Wings-N-Things in San Diego was the best ANYWHERE! I still tell him we should go on vacation to San Diego just to get some wings! :]

We went home and sat around, had a normal, lazy day, until it was time to pick the dogs up. We got there pretty early so we had to wait. We were looking over the paperwork they gave us, and apparently, Roxie was pregnant. I wish I would have known that beforehand. I probably would have let her keep them! I would have LOVED a Dexie-Roxter babies!! :] Too late now.

They brought them out in their e-collars [cones of shame] and it was so adorably goofy! They hated them. Poor Roxie cried the whole way home. Dexter cried a little bit, but not much. We gave them pain meds we got home. Roxie was out pretty quick. Dexter whined and couldn’t get comfortable for a while.

Zane’s mom came over and brought us dinner. She cuddled with Dexter and snored on the couch for about an hour while she and Zane watched Rise of the Lycans. I was sleeping off and on, it was a tiring day. Went to bed at 9.    

Well, one of us in comfy. 

Ever since we moved into the apartment, #Roxie has had extreme separation #anxiety. This is her, laying on the #mat by the tub while I was taking a bath. Poor baby thinks we’re going to abandon her.

Family cuddles on the couch. Cuddling with Dexter while watching Dexter :) We decided to start our New Year’s Eve Dexter Marathon early. I sure am going to miss this while he’s gone. :/

I enjoy being paired with these bums. There are times I want to open the door and let them run off, but I always end up thanking the puppy fairy for letting me have them.

So I [FINALLY] set up an appointment for the doggies to spayed/neutered. I feel like such a bad pet owner for waiting so long. I am very excited to never have to deal with Roxie being in heat again, and hopefully it will calm Dexter’s aggressiveness, and territorialness. I am not, however; excited about dropping them off at 7am and not being able to see them until after 4pm. That’s going to be an anxiety ridden day. 

I am NOT one to call my dogs my children, but I will admit I treat them as they are sometimes. And they are without a doubt, a member of the family. 

I am just nervous, and the appointment isn’t even until Jan 28th.

My oh my, time was not nice to my dogs, they’re definitely looking haggard.

Aww.. I’ve been going through my Tumblr from the beginning, and I came across this video of Roxie and her siblings before we got to bring her home. 

SO FREAKIN CUTE!

And since I can’t figure out how to reblog myself, I’ll just repost it.

Roxie is the one that is like medium brown. At about 22 second into the video she jumps on her sister and attacks her… then at about 2:45 she’s the one getting her ear chewed on. :]

She only loves me when Zane’s not home..

Roxie’s been a real cuddle-bug lately..

and I look over and see Roxie licking a box that’s on the bed. I watch her for a second and she keeps licking it, like it’s a lollipop or something. 

So I take my headphones off and ask her what she is doing. Yeah. I took my headphones off, like I was expecting her to answer me. I’m so smart sometimes.

*Luke isn’t online anymore, so I can’t listen to his accent.
**I absolutely despise the word “earbuds” not sure why, but I do. So in case you were wondering, yes I have “earbuds” in, but I call them headphones. 

Oh I miss puppy Roxie. When we first got her we had huge mirrored closet doors like these and she always did the same thing. So Cute! She also chewed on all my bras, I don’t miss that part.

Roxie is insane… I swear there are ghosts in my room or something, because she gets in these barking fits and goes nuts…
