The never ending ride...

Blue and Winston

Well today we took Winston back for his 2nd puppy shot. Man oh man what a trip. As you may remember when we brought Winston home he didn't really like the car. We blamed it on the de-wormer they gave him moments before we left. We had our game plan made last night. We were going to put his kennel in the car and have him ride in it. He really loves his kennel, most people seem amazed by this. The down fall to the story is that we have to drive from Fort Worth to Preston & 635....this is about a 40 minute drive.

As we left we ran by the dry cleaners...then we were on the road. No more than had we made it off 35 in Fort Worth and on to 121 did it begin. CAR SICK!!! He was sick the whole trip. We had planned for everything, except this. Luckily I put a towel under his kennel in the car, to keep it from sliding around. This came in handy when we had to remove the blanket to put a fresh on in because it was soak with puppy vomit. Once we made it to our stop he was totally jazzed to be out of the car. We took him in and got his shot....not even a peep came from him. (I think it still the happiness of being out of the car) We did a little shopping, you know ever where we go we must get him a new toy (spoiled little guy). Then off again. After a quick trip to CVS to pick up a couple of extra blankets. We headed to meet my friend Wiggs.

Wiggs has a sweet black lab, Blue. While we grabbed a bite to eat Winston got a moment to relax and let his stomach settle at her house. After lunch we let Blue and Winston have a little play time. Blue is so wonderful with him. She just took him on like he was her own. Winston gave her kisses and everything. Here a few pics from their play date! We can't wait to see Blue and Wiggs again. I guess by the ride home Winston had nothing left in him. He slept the whole way it was great. I just hope he out grows this...we have to go back on the 21st!
