It's been a month since the accident and I'm feeling really good! I have been extra protective with my family, barking at the door. I can't help it I am part super hero with my super intense hearing power. I lived so that I could have more time here with my peeps and I want them to be safe. They don't need no stinkin' alarm system when I'm around. I lost part of my spunk though. I'm not as playful and I stopped chewing up things and digging in the yard. Mommy says I aged about 5 years. That's probably true for now. My body feels older. This weekend, Daddy took down the kennels. That was sad and weird. We still haven't found the perfect place to bury Sprinkles. Right now she is on Jaelyn's dresser in her "casket". Jaelyn wasn't ready to bury her but tonight she said she would be ok with it. I think secretively, no one is ready to bury it because then it's final. I have loved the freedom of running the house when my family is away. I have been sneaky, sleeping on the couches. I'm not sure how Mommy knows, but she does. She bought me a soft bed and put it in my favorite spot by the window so I can be a watch dog and protect the house. I love having a real "job" to do. Jaelyn has been spending the night alot with friends and I miss her when she is gone. She is always the one to make sure I have a pillow and I'm covered in blankets if I'm resting. She takes good care of me. Braden sneaks me treats. In fact, the other day, he gave me a whole handful of treats just for going outside to pee pee. Evan is talking about Sprinkles a little less. Avery is a teenager and sometimes lets me in his room. Honestly, it smells in there and the door automatically shuts behind me and I get trapped. Now, I like putting socks in my mouth, but to be stuck in a teenage boy's room for longer than an hour is torture! Overall, my recovery is near an end. My wounds have closed completely. Now we wait for hair to grow over the scars. That day will always be in my mind but I'm glad I have another chance and more time with this great family I call mine.
