Our Monday night ritual

G'day Maties,
Every Monday night we go to visit our Aunty Marylin and Uncle John. We love it there, they have a really huge back yard where we run and run for hours. Lucy really gets to stretch those legs. I try to to keep up but I'm just not cut out for speed. Pinky B also got us a new toy. It's a really big tennis ball. Not even Lucy was able to destroy it.....well not yet anyway.Here is a video of Monday night at Marylin's.














Now on a serious note. Last Saturday night pinkies noticed some blood spots on the floor. After some investigating they realised the bleeding was coming from me .... from a somewhat private part of my anatomy. I was taken to the vet first thing Monday morning with a sample of urine. Well vet lady took a good look at me and did some tests on the sample and said I have a urinary tract infection hence the slight bleeding. She also checked my prostate and found it to be fine. She did say something that sent my head into a spin....I was so shocked I forgot what it was she said but the pinkies have been talking about calling me Nolene instead of Noah.....and something about being turned from a rooster to a hen.....what on earth is going to happen.........oh sigh......this isn't good is it. Is the same going to happen to B when he has his prostate checked???? I think not!!!! As he held me he kept saying 'good boy Noah, it's ok' ....Of course it's ok, he's not the one with something that feels like a fist up his clacker.......cripes!!

If anyone out there knows what they're talking about please help me out.

Your mate,

Noah

Dude, watch out, they want to give you laughie gas and make you leave your gajingles behind (no pun). Just take your ant-eats-bio-ticks and you'll be right as rain.

BTW - You guys are insane with that tennis ball. Do you have extra springs in your leggies?

Alf said...

Hi Noah, oh dear - I hope you don't need to have an operation. Keep taking those tablets I'm sure it will clear up just fine. As for B well if you got him done too you could always call him Brenda!!!! Lucky you it was a lady vet - they have smaller hands than a man!!

I love the tennis ball - I had a large one but now it is almost in two - thanks to Mindy!

Persephone and Buster said...

NOAH.....no no no....my uncle clancey said...."never ever go to sleep at the vets"....he said..."when you wake up things be missing"...he said "the they lied to him...said he wouldn't feel a thing"....anyhow, i hope your pills go down easy and drink lots of water and telll the pinkies to give you cranberry tabs...and i do like your new "wilson"...very nice.
you're friend theBUSTER...who won't be sleeping at no vet anytime soon!
p.s.
we accept your challenge..it's in the making as we type...something about going to the studio and putting something together sometime soon....humans are so random.

Oh crikey Noah, it doesn't sound good. We hope you are ok. We don't know what it is all about but we're sure B knows really - why don't you ask him man to man?

Lucy is really fast isn't she? That is one great tennis ball!

Love Mol and Gert

Hey Noah,

I hope your pills make you feel better. I've had that vet visit and it is not cool. Plus, they cade me wear a lampshade for a week afterwords, what's that all about? It was bad enough I suddenly felt lighter in the rear. I sure do hope you feel better, I'm sending you tons of Aire-Zen! Tell the girls Hi for me. It sure looks like you have great Monday nights. I bet it makes the week seem better.

Your pal,
Kirby

Oh Noah...I typed this long and witty comment and blogger ate it...what i said is we haven't visited ur bloggie since you guys ate the frozen fishies...your food service has improved....brownies...chocolate, smockalate....we think that rumor was make up by hoomans who don't like to share...

We can't remember which of ur sissies had some toofers out...they feelin' better???

um...can't help ya with that medical question ya had...even though I'm a nursing student and all we haven't hit the chapter yet of "Care of the Male Dale with Personal Issues...." Um...we don't start the psychiatic part of our training till next year. Sounds like you should find a close friend or confidante to confide in and express your feelings. Babystan and Scruffy are laughin' hysterically...what did I say???

Stanley said...

Noah, buddy.

I'm sorry to hear you're feeling a little poorly. I hope the medicine does the trick. If not, you may be losing a little weight in the near future.

Ask me sometime why I'm so dedicated to my squeaky balls... We'll kick back & I'll tell you the story!

Goober love & healing smooches,
Stanley

Don't worry Noah you'll still be a man even without your dangly bits - I didn't learn how to pee like a real man for a long time after I lost mine but I still figured it out in the end.

Hope the infection is clearing up and not causing you too much pain.

I hope you're feeling better, Noah. I think my girl would have a heart attack if she discovered I was bleeding. Is the medication working?

Woof,

Hi Noah,
Hope the meds are sorting out your problem. Hope you won't need that op!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You guys are having such a lot of fun at Aunty Marylin's! Cool.

Keeping paws crossed!

Mojo, Digger and family said...

Look.. um..er.. I'm just a young airegirl and I am not entirely sure what mysterious things your vet is referring to. But I sure hope someone explains this stuff to me before they do something mysterious to your mystery, so to speak. I'm off to ask Mum now.

Seriously, though, hope all is well on the health front.

Great chasing game, by the way.
