Turned out it was her lymph node, and the vet got a big kick out of it. :D

Glad to know she's fine as I was a little worried. This dog is our child at the moment, and we treat her as such.

I am not sure how to repond to this thread. I can't think of anything witty or comical to add.

It's the cat; don't worry about it.

BTW, it's a dog, not a child. You're not one of those weirdos that dresses your pet up in a jaunty little hat and costume for Halloween are you?

You're not one of those weirdos that buys their pet a birthday card, are you?

You're not one of those disgusting weirdos that lets their dog sit on a chair at the dinner table AND gives it it's own PLATE, are you?

Damn weirdos. The dog goes on the floor, it doesn't wear a costume and it has no idea when it's birthday is. You need a basic Dog Owners' Guide to read!

Number three would be my grand parents... When they come to visit the dog stays in the garage!

Elderly folks almost have an excuse. Most likely, they've raised children and grandchildren and all are now grown and fled the nest/hom area. Babyfying a dog is a way of reliving that.

Younger folks (i.e. 15-55) have no excuse and are just morons for dressing up their dog in a jaunty little outfit. I'd bite your nutsack if I was a dog and you tried to put a ballerina costume on me. :evil: Grrrr!

Glad to hear your dog is ok, Andrew.

And no, my Shetland Sheepdog doesn't get any weird treatment, though we (my parents and I) care for her well (she gets taken to the vet for shots and stuff; I train her for formal obedience work; she gets regular exercise, etc.).

Good, glad to hear that. I believe in great treatment for pets. Vet visits, proper diet, excercise and lots of love...but no stupid hats.

I was going to say "You need to stop trying to make the dog deep throat you", then I read your post. ;)

No, our dog would eat the hat or the costume if we tried to put anything on her like that.

And, the reason we dote on the dog is because my wife is being treated for infertility, and the dog is the closest we can come to having a child at the moment. So, fvck you.

And if anyone mentions adoption, please forward a check for a minimum of $10,000 because we certainly don't have that kind of money right now.
