Jabba the Pug

Poor guy. Vader is my half-cousin who lives in California. (We were both named after Star Wars characters if you hadn’t noticed.) He’s a 3-year old Poodle with black fur–hence the name Vader. Unfortunately, I don’t have any pictures of him available right now. (One of my other cousin’s is named Jedi–he has a white coat.)

Vader ran into some trouble last week. Daddy said he got a herniated disk in his back, and was temporarily partially paralyzed. He had to have surgery for four hours on his back to help him get better. After he got out of surgery, they said he was doing much better and has an 85% chance of full recovery. Right now he needs a bit of help to get around; I heard he got a new ’stroller’ that he gets taken around in, which sounds like fun. Good luck pal, we wish you a speedy recovery. Woof!

my apologies boys and girls…mommy says we got attacked by a vicious predator called a ’spammer’! i’m not sure what that is, but now you have to register to post a comment until the ‘rents get off their lazy bums and fix it for good. sorry guys! don’t worry, i gave the ’spammer’ a few choice barks and grrrrowls.
things on the home-front have been pretty fun lately. mommy made lots of tasty cookies, of which i was allowed to sample really small pieces of. and when i say really small, i mean really really small!

more later guys! the folks are gonna eat lunch now and i’ve got to put on my cute-i’m-starving-please-feed-me face!

woof!
