All shaved..... again

Well Mummy took me to the Dog Dr again on Monday this week.  I was really happy to go, because I always get treated really well there. And whatever happens, normally means I get extra fuss at AS & UD's later too.
Normally I arrive and get treated straight away  - preferential treatment for being so damn cute I say!
This time however, they seemed to be busier, and I seemed to spend a very long time waiting around. Eventually a lovely nurse came to get me for my 'treatment'.  Still not entirely sure what that means.
Before I knew it, they were only shaving my left arm..... why the left arm ? The fluff on my right arm is still patchy from the last time I was here.... Anyway, next the horrible bit that makes me wince... the needle.  And then.... zzzzzzzzzzz
I woke up later and my belly didn't half hurt.  What have they done ?  Well, for a start...... they shaved all my belly-fluff off .....again!  Everytime I start to grow some decent belly-fluff... off to the Dog Dr, and off comes the fluff.
I was feeling really sleepy and my head was spinning a bit, so I had another little sleep until the nurse woke me to say Mummy was here to take me home.  Yippeeee.  I was out of there quicker than you could say "sausages".   Mummy made a huge fuss of me (I should ruddy think so, she made me go) and I had a lovely supper of chicken and boiled rice.  Was still feeling woozy, but managed to make it round to AS & UD's for a bit more sympathy !  The sausage treats were a bit thin on the ground, but my belly wasn't feeling great, so I reckon I can wait ....
I have 2 puncture holes in my belly which have horrible stitches in them, and they were really sore all night.  I barely slept - I only had 9 hours.  Taking Mummy for a walk in the morning was a pretty slow affair.  I was walking very slowly. Even cocking my leg for a pee was painful.  Stupid belly.  I managed to catch a bit more sleep through the day though, especially when Mummy went to work.
AS opened the back door early evening (caught me by surprise a bit there AS !!), and I was feeling so much better by then, that I was able to give her a bit of fuss, then high-tail it to UD.... fully expecting to be greeted with sympathy sausages.  Yeah, it worked.  Sausages ........  I should think so, after what I've been through. Mummy came home later. I said "Hi", but decided to stay at AS & UD's for bit longer.. (more sausages).
Today I'm feeling better again, although my belly is still sore and swollen.  Mummy has posted a couple of pictures on my Twitter (@JackMuppetDog) and Flickr accounts - thanks a lot Mum !
