He GOT IT!


Now tell me: Don’t he look adorable? Just like a cute puppy? Just clownish enough to make him unique but not silly?

Yes, yes and yes!

The one thing no one could suspect is that this is not just yet another funny looking pooch.

He is a super male dog! He has 3 BALLS!

Well to be precise he has one now, after the initial normal surgery to remove the regular pair.

We took both dogs to the vet for shots and also because we suspect Matisse had ringworm (he actually has a severe allergy to bug bites, which I must say sounds a lot easier to treat). So he got his shots, a prescription for his ear infection and then was Jack’s turn so when the doctor went “hummmm” while performing a check up to see how he was healing from she found an extra ball, smaller than the ones removed (which were bigger than usual) but not small enough to be mistaken by scar tissue or anything else but an extra testicule. She proceeds to explain it is a very rare thing, way rarer than it happens to men but she wants to have it removed anyway.

So poor Jack is in for another couple of weeks of misery and my legs will be bruised for another month (oh well I never look good in skirts anyway).

I did think about suggesting we join the circus, hey is it that wrong for me to want him to make some money? But the true is because the reason he was neutered was that he has an enlarged prostate there is not much of an option, no matter how many balls he has they all have to come out.

We will probably schedule it for next Thursday, if it goes the way it was last time we will be able to have a night of sleep by Tuesday of the next week.
