August was a big month. I had my first heat cycle. I did not feel like myself. I needed to be close to my people–staying in constant touch (literally). I didn’t mind diapers and wore them in the house. We stayed away from tennis courts and other public places and I didn’t go for my usual walks. I wasn’t too bored, maybe because I felt tired and needed to sleep more. Now that my cycle is finally over, I am back to my usual playful self.
This month, I also managed to eat something during a walk that made me shaky and dopey. PADS medical knew right away that it was marijuana. Luckily, I only ate a tiny bit and got better after a few hours.
I am switching from puppy to grown-up food. I was getting a little chubby. Now that I’m not growing as fast, I don’t need as much food. The vet and trainers said I should not be much heavier than 50 pounds.
