norman's diet



this week norman (the world's greatest golden retriever) had his "manhood" removed. he was to go in no later than 9am and be picked up after 5pm. all pretty standard stuff.

at noon the phone rang. it was city vet. a very calm voice on the other end immediately broke into laughter and explained that before this procedure (by the way, it's laser now...geez), all dogs are given some morphine. it is very common for dogs to get a bit sick after the morphine, and norman had thrown up. a baby squirrel. whole.

she then said, "we've never seen anything like this happen before. (more laughter)" that of course, made me feel so good about my dog's behavior.

yes, yes, my friends, apparently norman has terrorized the squirrel population in the m-street area by EATING them. gross. very gross. squirrels, watch out for your young...norman's in town now.
