I am so proud of my boy. He did so well. His appetite has come back. I'm not sure if he trusts Stephanie more (in that she isn't hiding pills in his food) or if the pills were making him not feel so fabulous (since Monday was his last dosage). At any rate, not only is he eating his canned food, but he is eating kibble as well. Eating kibble?!?! Now that is something to party about! I am so happy that he did so well.

He is almost back to his old self. Once he starts playing with his stuffed animals, then I will know that he is getting really close.

I am quite nervous today, but I know that Newton is in good hands. I have to go to San Jose for a customer briefing. Although I will only be gone for less than 24 hours, it is still very tough on me.

I am lucky to have met Stephanie. She is awesome and Newton absolutely loves her. I also set up a wireless camera so that I could watch Newton while I was gone. His favorite thing to do is to lay on the sofa.

Newton and I spent most of the day hanging out. I have to go to San Jose on Monday and was working on the presentation that I will be delivering. I called Stephanie, his petsitter, and she is cool with watching him. We are so lucky to have found such a wonderful person.

Newton is doing pretty well when it comes to navigating the stairs. He is also getting more adventurous when it comes to walking on the hardwood floors. He seems to be feeling much better.

Not much exciting happened today. I am still having a hard time getting Newton to eat. He still loves his double cheeseburgers from McDonalds (which is good...at least he is eating something) and he likes some of the canned food (Salmon seems to be his favorite). Although the canned food has to be plain. Once you add kibble to it, he no longer wants to eat it.

Our pill taking routine is working out well. I wish I would have thought of the water bottle sooner. He is such a sport. He is almost done with all of his meds which is a good thing.

Newton is definently getting tired of all of the pills. The pill gun has become one of my favorite tools. I also found that using a water bottle works wonders. Not only does Newton love drinking water from the water bottle, but also it helps wash the pills down.

We have been taking little walks around the neighborhood and Newton has been loving it. He has become such a calmer dog. He doesn't bark at approaching dogs and people like he use to. He seems to enjoy people coming up and saying hi.
