What's a dog to think?

False alarm?  Overly concerned alpha dogs?  Maybe. 

Maybe not.

So yesterday I went to see Dr. Hathorn.  The bosses were worried about me and it just doesn't do to have them fretting about me, so I agreed to see Dr. Hathorn a week early.  She did a thorough exam checking for signs of lumps and bumps.  Much more thorough than I would have preferred actually.  She didn't find any cause for my bosses to think that the cancer is coming back.  Still, there are those worrisome bum troubles (and I stand by my policy that the less said, the better).  The heavy breathing wasn't really high on their list of concerns.  After all, I am almost 10%  heaver than I used to be and that can cause anyone to snore. 

Of course we are happy that she didn't feel any new bumps or lumps.  I guess all that we can do is continue the "watchful waiting" which, if you didn't know, is doctor speak for do nothing.  Well almost nothing.  Die cancer!  Die! 

I understand that my bosses are just concerned about me, but I think that even on my 140th birthday party (which is 12 alpha dog years from now), my alphas will be nervous that the cancer is coming back.  I love that they care so much about me.

Well, I have to sign off now.  The boss man tells me that we have to go for a walk now before it gets too hot.  Have a great day!
