Last week, my poor little Sadie went into pouting mode, so of course I grabbed my camera. Once a month, on flea and tick medication day, Sadie gets all pouty. First, she hates being force fed her heartworm pill. Second, I put medicine down her back that seems to feel icky and wet, but just won’t come off. And Sadie tries very hard to make it come off. Which leads to the last and worst offense of all, I make Sadie wear her pajamas. Because she runs around the house trying to rub off her flea and tick medication on any surface she can rub against, I make her wear pjs to try and keep the medicine off the furniture and on her back. I think she looks absolutely adorable in her pajamas, but Sadie disagrees. As soon as I put them on her, she stands exactly where I place her and refuses to move. I always try to give her a treat for putting up with the medication, but Sadie won’t even take the treat, let alone eat it. My dog basically turns into a mannequin displaying dog pajamas. So I have to pick her up and carry her to the bed, where she lies completely still and spends the rest of the night pouting. As soon as the pjs come off, Sadie is immediately alive again. She zooms off to drink water and find that treat she rejected earlier. I always feel bad about the pouting, but luckily it seems I’m always forgiven, until next month comes around.
