Zoe Watch Numero 2

Vet Visits:
After her first visit to Charlie Timmerman, DVM, it was discovered that our Zoe has a parasite that is causing her to have frequent and runny bowels. Puppy meds and loving patience from her parents should do the trick (mostly the meds, cause damn her s--- stinks).

Unruly Behavior:
Zoe has currently been nicknamed "the evil one" by her mother after Polly got a full day of being a stay-at-home-mom. Chewing furniture, chewing rugs, growling, short naps, and overall anarchy ensued yesterday when Polly stayed home to nurse her own upset stomach back to health. By the end of the day Polly was ready to give me full custody of Zoe and began to question if we should ever have children.

Sleeping Habits:

Zoe is still sleeping through the night except for the aforementioned excessive bowel activity. I was beginning to think that she was mainlining Olestra (check the side effects to understand the joke). Intestinal over-activity aside, she is doing well about going back to sleep after dropping deuce.


Considering that we have only had Zoe for one-week and that she will only be 7-weeks old tomorrow, I think things are going quite well. If current trends are any indication of what is to come, I like how she's gonna turn out.
