What Does Diva have to do with Song-Writing?

Well.... last night, while sitting on my back deck and watching her chase 4 squirrels (her mortal enemy) up into the woods, I decided it was time to re-write that CLASSIC Motley Crue song "Girls Girls Girls".

Yes, you're with me, aren't you?

It's going to be:

"Squirrels, Squirrels, Squirrels!"

If you have ideas for clever lyrics, let me know.
SmileyGirl has already suggested the first line:

"Bushy tails and rabies teeth...." !! (I love it!)

Goodbye to a Brave, Beautiful Golden Friend

Diva and Ruby want to dedicate today's post to a beautiful, brave-hearted Golden friend on the West Coast.

The mighty, lion-hearted ACHILLES who today makes the journey to Dog Heaven to start his new life.

We dedicate this post to Achilles and especially to his beautiful loving owners who have given him SO much love and care for these last few years of his life.

Although we haven't met you face to face, we love you just the same, Achilles!
Thinking of you ALL DAY TODAY!

Puppy-Palooza Videos!

We had 2 new neighborhood puppies come visit this weekend ("Belle" and "Jackson").
Ruby LOVED the new puppies; however, Diva was too hyper, so we kept her in the backyard.

The puppies got a BIT too rambunctious in the kitchen and Ruby even wound up breaking up a disagreement!

Cute pups, nonetheless. Enjoy the vids. :-)

Diva's Ocular Odyssey is Over.

Yes, thank goodness.
A week's worth of antibiotic ointment, and another ointment (steroids, maybe? I've forgotten) and what looked like a near CATASTROPHE has been averted.

Darling Diva is back to her normal self.
In fact, she and Ruby were giddily chasing early Spring bumblebees in the back yard today. Luckily, they did not catch any. :)

Diva's Disastrous Day

Poor Diva.
Last night she and Hubster were in the backyard playing Diva's favorite game (Throw-The-Ball-And-I'll-Bring-It-Back!) and Diva was momentarily distracted by something (squirrel?) and in that horrible split second, the hard plastic ball Hubster was throwing hit her (HARD) in the face.

We didn't realize it at the time, but it hit her in the EYE. Apparently REALLY hard in the eye. (Normally he uses tennis balls, but all the tennis balls had been lost in the woods... the only ball available was a hard little plastic ball... which made this injury much worse...)

Anyway, by bedtime, her eye had swollen completely shut, was oozing Gunk (the scientific term), and she looked miserable. She was avoiding light and wouldn't let us inspect the eye at all.

So, long story short, I got the first appt. this morning at the vet and he confirmed my suspicion - she has a badly scratched cornea but will be fine. He did a full exam and sent us away with two ointments to put in her eyes (THAT should be fun). Ultimately, she will be fine.

So, poor Diva Darling is now napping.
She's definitely NOT her normal self; however, she still insisted on being Alpha Dog at the vet, and barking and being a Bad Ass to all the dogs in the waiting room, with her one Pop Eye.
