I will be out of the office from Thursday, August 26 – Sunday, August 29th with very limited access to email and phone calls. If you need to reach me during this time, please send me an email and I will be returning emails when I return Sunday evening.

And because no blog post is complete without a photo – poor Baxter had surgery yesterday. Nothing major, he had his dewclaws removed and they also removed of two growths. Baxter just turned 7 last Friday, what a lousy birthday gift this was! I of course had to take a quick pic of him while he was over-medicated on the couch. Now that all the drugs have worn off, he’s back to normal and has minimal discomfort. Funny enough, when I’m home alone with him he acts like he’s having a rough time, but when his “dad” comes home he’s much better. Smart dog, he knows that I’ll coddle him if he’s not feeling well!
