Text Box: Hi guys, it’s me Will!  Sorry it has been awhile but, Mom finally was able to pick up a job after searching for over a year.  It’s not really what she was hoping for as she was looking for a Legal Secretary position, but it’s something in a different field to try to take care of us.  She’s been very busy so has not had a lot of time to help with my updates.  I even tried to write my own update but, my paws kept on messing up the words because they are a little too big for the key board.  So, I decided to wait for mom to type my update while I told her what to say. 

Before I get to my update, I have a surprise for you all!  I’ve gotten real tired of this dreary Elton John song (though I think his song did really well for me when I first arrived and I really do like him).  I decided to make a change because I’m not sad or dying any more.  Don’t know the name of the song but, since I’ve been back in the same room again all I hear is Country as I did when I first arrived.  Then I heard this really cool song and I just started jamming and rocking and rolling in my crate (You better not tell Mom or Dad otherwise I’ll be in big doo doo considering I’m confined due to this worm thing).  Dad says the song is not country but called it Southern Rock.  I really liked it when I heard it so I told Mom if you don’t change my song I will have to bite you in the butt to get your attention so she did!   Hope you all like the change because I sure do!!!!!!!!!!!

Alright, this is the update! Mom drove me to Mississippi State on August 9th so that Dr. Shores could check on my last surgery to see how I was mending.  He was very pleased that the hole in my pallet is almost completely closed but told Mom that I had to have one more surgery to finalize the hole as it has only healed 95% healed.  This will take place in February.  He will also give me a teeth cleaning at the same time while I am under for the surgery.  Man, I didn’t know dogs had to have their teeth cleaned!  Sure hope it doesn’t hurt after all those other things they’ve done to me!  

He also informed Mom that I was good to go on the heart worm treatment.  Gee! what is that all about?  I didn’t think we could get worms!  Mom explained it was a different kind of worm that could kill me and that’s why I need to go through the treatment to get rid of the nasties!  OK, what ever she says, she’s done okay for now, so I trust her but am a little nervous!  So, I’m back in the same room that I came to back last October and in the same crate!  Wow, I feel like I’m being scolded but, Mom says it’s for my safety and explained that if I’m not confined something very wrong could happen and I could die instantly!  I said OK Mom, what ever you say!  Hey guys, I don’t understand all this stuff that Mom is saying but. it’s pretty scary so I will just listen and stay put!

Well, that’s all to report for now!  What do you guy’s think of the new song I picked out?  I think it’s pretty cool and suits me well don’t you!!  If you don’t like it send in your votes and I will pick out another song based on your suggestions!

Collie hugs and kisses to everyone!

Love Will
