Chunky Butt

Yup....my dog is a chunky butt. He weights 20 lbs!!! When we got him fixed this summer he was only weighing 14. That is a lot of weight in a little amount of time. I might actually take him to the vet to get his nails trimmed and other things soon and aske them how I can bring his weight down. He is really cute chunky, but I want him to be around for a long time and all that fat isn't going to help him with that. He can still jump though....onto the bed, into my lap as I am studying, just about anywhere. That is good news!

I hurt myself last night at work. Our carts that I have to push are pure stainless steel and really heavy. Several of them need new wheels or just need to be replaced, but the hospital won't do it. Anyway, I had one of the bad carts last night and when I tried to back up to let a patient by, it would not budge. Finally with a hard pull, it suddenly moved and rolled right over my foot; not the wheel. The cart caught me foot underneath it, flexed! Since I couldn't keep my balance then because it kept on rolling, I fell down to the ground and stopped it with my body!! It sounds pretty bad and funny, but luckily it really only hurt my ankle. I made a report about it just in case I have problems in the future with it, but now it is fine still.

Yes, Taco is fat! This week I am going to try to take him walking in the morning to get him down some. It is bad!
Hey, girl! don't fight with those carts. They have a way of winning. I am glad that you are ok.
