Dog Party!

This past Saturday was One Tail at a Time's second annual family reunion, and while I am not a OTAT dog, my sister Izzy is so I got invited. It was a blast! Look how happy I was:


Izzy and I met the smallest dog I've ever met named "Teddy" - I think my size freaked him out but eventually he took to me. Izzy and I ran around all day (with lots of rests) together and finally Red came to hang out too.


By the end of the party, I was passed out and ready to get home to my bed.


I also wanted to send my girl Trio a shoutout - Happy Birthday! I'm sorry I missed your big day on Monday but I promise to see you soon. I will be back at IPC soon for another Pool session so stay tuned!

Resistance Pool round two!


Yesterday was my second visit to the Resistance Pool. Jeanine took me in there and showed my mom how to help me swim and stretch my legs out. They made me wear this ridiculous cap over my ears! (I did look pretty cute though). I was still a bit nervous, but I think I will be swimming twice a week now so I need to man up.

After I got home I fell asleep immediately (see photograph above). I slept in the car too then dried off in the sun.

Today I am going with my sister Izzy and my best pal Red to the Wauconda Dog park! Hopefully it won't be too crowded and I can run for a minute then just relax in the shade.

Also, to anyone looking for an awesome addition to their family, my "sister" Bella is available for adoption through One Tail at a Time!
Here is her petfinder link:

I'm so excited to see her again this week, my mom found her an awesome foster home just four short blocks away - I can easily walk four blocks! I bet she'll take lots of photos to show everyone.

Lawn chair or Throne?
My mom heard a rumor that I love to lay in lawn chairs, so Kathy (IPC's office mgr) brought me one from her house. Today I am in the office, in my throne..er lawn chair... watching all the comings & goings!

Fifty's First Date

I had a date recently with a beautiful girl named Trio, as her name suggests she, too, was missing a limb. We got along famously and hope to meet again soon! You should also check out Trio's organization The Trio Animal Foundation, they do wonderful things for homeless pets!
