Fab Frenchie: February 2011

My Sweet Life

Yes, life is sweet when you're a French Bulldog. I spend my days being pampered by two retired people, Jack and Donna, who think I'm just the best thing ever (next to velcro shoes and elastic waistbands, that is). My days are filled with romping in the yard, chasing insects, lazy naps under the patio table, and doggie treats given lovingly just because I'm so cute! What could be better?
Donna tries to teach me "obedience" and cute little tricks, then rewards me with delightful tidbits and treats. Don't tell her, but I believe she's the one being trained. We Frenchies have our ways--I do just enough to make her think she's making progress with me and get rewarded for my hard work. Then, sadly, by the next day I seem to forget what I learned, and poor Donna has to work oh-so-diligently with me again, rewarding me with more luscious morsels. Ah, well, it's fun while it lasts, but I think she's going to catch on soon....

Allergy/Yeast Infection

Last week I went to the vet who discovered I had a severe ear infection, and my feet were red and itchy. She thought that these symptoms, along with the fact that I had a funny smell, might mean I had a pervasive yeast infection caused by allergies. Well, Mommy and Daddy bought me new food that is free from chicken, beef, corn, wheat, and soy. And guess what? I've improved dramatically! I feel so much better and am not so smelly any more. I also have a special lotion for my ears to clear up the yeast infection. But now, with the new food, I don't think I'll be getting it back. Yahoo!

I'm not a Steelers Fan!

Hey, nobody said I was a Steelers fan, but just look at me! Donna's got me modeling these sillly Steelers clothes! Personally, my favorite is the tank top--it really shows my muscular physique!
