Ins and Outs of Puppy Owners

This week has been one of the more eventful weeks in the life of Zeke, the mini dachshund pup.  He got his third puppy shot,  was able to begin his leash training, and was bitten by something the vet seems to believe was a scorpion.  After calling in to the vet about the swollen left side of his muzzle, we took him in for a vet visit.  She gave him a shot of Benadryl, prescribed children's Benadryl for him later that night and this morning then sent us on our way.  He is now back to normal after being kind of loopy for the past 24 hours.  He loves going outside but still needs to figure out his purpose and priority of the walk.... it is not just for sightseeing!  

Curtis and I have been hired to work at the Surprise, AZ spring training facility in the concession area.  We have to go to a training session for food handlers and get our permits to work with foods as AZ requires on Feb. 5.  The job starts on Feb. 25th and lasts for about 6 weeks.  The Texas Rangers and the Kansas City Royals use the stadium for their training and there are games every day for the entire time.   We don't have our schedules for working yet but I don't think it will be for every game.  Should be fun doing it so we are looking forward to giving it a go.  Our motor home will be parked in the area, too, so we don't have a long commute to and from the stadium.

  1. Dude. That is pretty cool! The very first baseball game I ever went to was a Rangers game.

    (Also...randomly...I love the name Zeke for your puppy - that is too cute.)
