s.o.s.

UPDATE

Wiley was like a new man last night - even before he ate his gourmet dinner.

The problem seems to have fixed itself, but I will continue to keep an eye on him 

and spoil him with extra petties and belly rubs.

Thanks to everyone for their advice and good wishes!

Fievel has made a full recovery, but Wiley is *still* under the weather. 

He's been having digestive problems (ahem, diarrhea) since SUNDAY! 

He's eating his normal food and acting fine otherwise, but shouldn't he be better by now? 

I've heard that canned pumpkin is good for settling a dog's stomach, but the can I had 

in my cabinet expired in April 2005 (guess I never got around to making that pumpkin pie!). I'm going to bring home a fresh can tonight, but how much should I give him?

Please leave a comment if you have any experience with this, or if you have ideas or advice 

for other ways to help him. I really hope I don't have to take him to the dreaded V.E.T.!!!

Thank you, guys!

Every dog mom has her day

Wiley is pooped. Pun intended.

There is a shiba virus running rampant in our home. On Mother's Day.

I won't disclose the horrific details, lest you lose your appetite at your Mother's Day brunches.

Be nice to your moms today! And don't lose your lunch!

Seasonal Ponderings

Do you smell that?

It's SPRING!

Wiley, pondering the weather.

Fievel, pondering how she'll get through the new heavy duty screen.

HAPPY SPRING, EVERYDOG!

When Embarrassment Pays Off...

Wiley's previous post, which revealed his less-than-masculine side,

has been nominated for Post of the Month at the Bone Zone!!!

He'd love your support. You can vote for him here.

(Thanks for the nod, Sparky!)

Press Release!!!

Some of you may have been wondering where Fievel has been.

Here, Fievel takes a break from another grueling day in the studio.

After a fight with Wiley (and a long talk with her therapist), Fievel has decided

to finally do something constructive with her overly competitive nature,

desperate need for attention, and fiercely good looks . . .

We are proud to announce that Fievel will be competing

on the upcoming season of "Dancing with the Shibas."

*No word yet on who Fievel will be partnered with. Any male canine dancers

who think they have what it takes to join this bitch in the spotlight can leave their

credentials in the comments section for consideration.*

Public Service Announcement!

Wiley thought that just because it was dark outside, no one would see him peeing like a girl.

Beware! When you're the subject of a famous dog blog, the paparazzi are EVERYWHERE!!!

(He's lucky it's acceptable for shibas to go commando or he'd be next in line for rehab!)

Is there anydog OUT THERE?

Okay, so I'm *finally* back after a ridiculously long and totally human-inflicted hiatus. But honestly? It feels kind of anticlimactic to me. I mean, I was so excited for my big comeback, but it took so long to get here that it kind of lost its luster. Ya know what I mean?


The whole scenario is kind of like the New Kids on the Block's appearance on the Today Show. There was so much hype about it, but once the internet leaked it everyone knew it was coming. So you'd think they would have stepped it up a notch, right? But they kinda fell flat. That's what I feel I've done and I apologize. I kept you at the edge of your seats and now that I've come back I have nothing to say other than "I'm Wiley, and I'm a Capricorn." Ugh.


I'm not washed up, and I don't think I look like a wax figure of the shiba I used to be, but I know that I have no excuse for what I've done to my adoring fans. But on second thought, I don't have an agent (or wrinkles and gray hair) so maybe I still have a chance?


Hangin' Ruff,

Wiley
