What a weekend! Hank is doing pretty well, better than Tuesday anyway! Friday afternoon I came home at lunch to take Hank out on a break. He was doing much better and I was able to go back to work for the afternoon. On Saturday morning Hank woke up about 7 and jumped up on the bed. We took him out about 11 pm to pee Friday night, so figured he'd be OK for another hour or so till we got up. About 7:30, Jeremiah starts to TALK. If you know me, you know that 7:30 on a Saturday morning is NOT going to be a good time to start a big conversation with me. But evidently, our pride and joy had an ACCIDENT on our bed. He peed through the comforter, sheets, mattress pad, and onto the mattress...GOOD MORNING! Welcome to the weekend...
So, we spent Saturday doing laundry, and spraying up urine spots on the carpet behind Hank. He's had all 5 of his pain pills, and we're hoping that he'll be OK now. But, it's very possible that it's the antibiotics that he's on for 2 weeks...so another week and a half. Oh boy! Jeremiah and I just finished the schedule for the week so that he's only home alone a long day tomorrow
(9 hours, a typical day is about 10).
We had our friends Mike & Grace over last night. Grace is REALLY excited that Hank has completed his basic manners class, because now he can go on long runs with her, and we're all excited for that! But, he was pretty lazy last night, which is nice when there's people over. Mike's mom Debi was in town from DC for the week, and she was VERY excited to meet Hank. She even brought him some cookies, a cute latte cookie and a carrot cookie. Both of which he DEVOURED! HE loves his Auntie Debi!
Today he did more sleeping, he didn't pee on our bed, but he did have a wet spot on his bed, so hopefully we got that all cleaned up. I'm just hoping that the pain pills being done with will help him to stop peeing so much, but it's probably the Antibiotics. April 15th can't get here soon enough!
His leg is still draining a bit, but he seems to be doing alright and last night he even slept without his ecollar on!

Sorry Mike & Debi...you know I love you, but SMIBville is not DC! I'm thinking an "I told you so" is in order for the dog in bed accident. By the way, uncle Jake is helping dog-sit his roommate's parent's dog. Jack is an old man, and a little too high maintenance...I can't even let him lick out my beer glass. What kind of a dog has a diet...sorry, this is probably something I should rant about in my own blog!
