Dentist appt for Buddy.

Buddy had a long day today. He had to be at the vet at 9am for a dental appointment. Yes...I said dental. He had 17 teeth pulled. I kind of freaked out at first until she told me dogs have 44 teeth! I guess this is pretty common for smaller breeds of dogs to have bad teeth and by middle age to have them pulled. I though that was weird since buddy is really only almost 6, but then I guess his life expectancy is 12 years, so that would make him middle aged! I felt really bad until another pet owner came in with their dog who was much smaller than buddy and the vet said that the dog only had 4 teeth left! Now we really have to work hard at making sure he gets good oral care. The best part is, his breath is so much better! Charlie really missed him today. I knew he really liked him, but didn't realize how much till today. Charlie asked about him every two hours. He was so excited when it was time to pick him up!

Charlie loves sunglasses. He found this old pair of Grace's in the house and said they were his and put them on. He walked around with them on for a while! He is kind of weird that way.
