Today mom said it was time for me to get my boosters. I still didn't know what a booster was, but I was about to find out. Halo, my princess sister, got to come too because mom said she need a bordatello booster. So, we loaded up into the Pointermobile. I got in my travel crate and Halo was in her seat, and off we went to see the Doc. When we arrived everyone was really happy to see us. All the people in the front office thought I was cute and Halo was so well behaved. Halo didn't really want to go in and I wasn't sure why, but once we got in mom told her to sit and she sat so nicely and stayed that allot of the people in the Doc's office were really impressed. I hope I can be that good someday, but boy it must be hard. Well we registered at the front desk and the nice lady told us we could take a seat in the waiting room and the Doc would see us soon. I got to sit in mom's lap because she didn't want me on the floor. Something to do with not having all my boosters yet. Hmmm...still don't get that. Pretty soon the nice lady came out and told us we could go to the back room. Once in the back room, all the technicians came in to see me and Halo. Many had not ever seen GSPs before and they thought I was cute and Halo was really pretty. The Doc came in and told mom that Halo didn't need her Bordatello yet and wasn't sure why they had sent a card, but in any case Halo seemed to relax and layed down. Then the tech came in and said she had to weigh me. I gained 3 pounds in just 9 days. I now weigh a little over 13 pounds. That was pretty cool. After I got back to the room, I got to get on the table. The doctor came back in and she had the booster with her. It didn't look to cool, but I knew I needed it so I acted like a big boy. Now I know what a booster is. I was a big boy though and didn't cry or whine and the Doc was pretty slick. It really didn't hurt much. After I got the booster another lady technician came in and she got all excited seeing me and Halo. She also had just gotten a GSP puppy and her puppy was 14 weeks old. Her GSP was named Riley. Well Riley was in the back, so she went and got Riley and we got to play for a few minutes while Riley's mom and my mom talked about GSPs. My mom loves to talk about GSPs. She always tells people we are soooooo smart and the best breed ever. Well Riley's mom agreed and they talked about training, tail length, and of course how smart we are.
Soon it was time to go home. Mom said I was such a good boy I could have a special treat when we got home. When we got home Mom gave me and Halo a special cookie, and my big sister Belle even played with me a little. Here is a picture of us playing.
Then I got a little tired so I crashed with all me friends.
Until next time....
