Parker!

Last Friday my and my husband went to a dog shelter to adopt a little puppy. When found on the website the one we liked and then walked in asking to see him. They brought him in, his name was pasco. He was a lab and a hound mix. Let me tell you he was on something!!He was the most loud, hyper puppy i have ever seen in my life. Needless to say we passed and then looked around at some of the other dogs. We saw this one....

instantly we knew this was our puppy. We named him Parker. He is a German shepherd. This week has been filled with potty training and teaching him manners. 

This morning when i got up Parker was acting really sleepy and just wanted to go back to bed. So i placed him back on the bed (he is too young to jump up yet) and he fell asleep.....for 5 minutes and then vomited everywhere. I immediately freaked out and got him off the bed and started to clean it up when he vomited again. Any responsible puppy mom would call the vet so i did, the nurse wanted me to talk to the doctor but i had to wait until noon. I then locked the puppy in the bathroom with his food, bed, toys and headed off to work. 

when the doctor called me back she said the it was concerning to her that he was very tired and vomiting at the same time. I answered some other questions she had and then she said do not feed him the rest of the day because that is most likely what is causing the vomit. I literally started freaking myself out and telling myself that when i get home from work my new puppy is going to be dead.

i left work as fast as i possibly could and zoomed past all the traffic. Slowed down once because i saw a cop. the whole time telling myself i just killed my dog. and that vomit was going to be everywhere. 

I walk in the door and hear nothing. no crying. no winning. no barking. i tell myself he is dead. great, you did it, you killed the puppy. i slowly open the door about to break down and cry. when out pops little Parker wagging his tail so excited to see me and ready to play. I scan for vomit, there is none. I did not kill my little puppy today, but i am pretty sure i gave myself some gray hairs with worrying.

he is the cutest little puppy i ever did see. i will update you more on the happenings of mister Parker boy.
