Aw, my dog is so cute when he thinks I’m in danger.

So this morning when I stepped out onto the back padio, the dog across the alleyway started barking (he’s still barking, actually) at me. I laughed and teased the other dog while scratching my baby’s ears and giving him good morning kisses before heading back into the house to sit down at my computers.

Ichigo followed a moment later, shoving the screen door open as I had closed it behind me. 

He trotted up to my desk, and I gave him some more ear scritches. Usually when I finish, he trots away, but today he stood in the gap between the desk and the wall staring at the door.

He stayed there until mom closed the screen door, checked to make sure I was still safely in my seat, then went to go eat.

It was adorable.

FINALLY. god tumblr, all I wanna do is talk about my dog, is that so much to ask?

took Ichigo to the vet today, after many days of trying to get him to stop licking his butt/tail/leg raw. The vet filled me with HORRIBLE HORRIBLE IMAGERY while going “But that’s probably not the problem :D” because the vet is a horrible troll.

bill came out to $150, with another $60-$80 for the follow-up visit next week to make sure that silly puppy’s issue really is as mundane as the vet predicted. Definitely cheaper than surgery. He was worried that Ichi’s something-something glands had ruptured inside and that there might have to be surgery or something. Except that he also was fairly sure that wasn’t the problem and ARGH. GODDAMMIT VET. Stop filling my head with terrible imagery D:
