We're back from the vet. BJ did real well in the waiting room-- he didn't even bark back at the Rottie that barked at him and he didn't even bother with another Rottie that slipped out of her collar and came over and sniffed BJ's butt! I was so proud of him ( Read more... )

BJ's home. He's pissed at me but he's home! LOL Lily was very glad to see him. He's sleeping right now, which is good ( Read more... )

Just talked with BJ's surgeon and vet (Dr. B and Dr. H, respectively) and everything went well. They want him to stay over-night to keep an eye on the drains they put in his ear. They said it could get pretty messy the first 12-18 hours and we all agreed they could deal with that better than I could! LOL Anyway, the drains will come out in seven ( Read more... )

Woofie's been pushed back into his own driveway until I can make $$ arrangements with the Volvo place to have a complete diagnostics test run on it.

Poor Woofie... Sigh... The Woof Mobile is still under the weather. Literally since it's raining! LOL More research and more testing and the consensus is that the ECU is kaput. And that is a dealer only item. And a dealer only install since they're the only ones we've located with the correct gizmo to program it for this car. And with dealer only ( Read more... )

Because Ron (and I but mostly Ron) didn't follow his gut but went with something Erik (know-it-all know nothing neighbor) said, the whole day was wasted taking the wrong freaking part off the car. I won't go into detail now (I'm still a bit upset with Erik) but Ron went to the Volvo dealer, found out what he needed to know (which was totally ( Read more... )

Okay. The Woof Mobile is home. Sort of. Per my lease, I can't do any work on the car in my driveway. So I had the tow truck driver put it in the neighbor's driveway. Ron talked to his mechanic guru this morning and they both agree it's the fuel pump. Ron's researching it now and as soon as we know the cost, we'll do what we have to do. Ron said he' ( Read more... )

I'm having a hard time reading/typing right now. I keep telling BJ they're tears of happiness but he's hovering. Why, you ask? Well, I'll tell you. :) I got a call from my vet this morning. Someone sent them a check for $750 for BJ's account!! The vet wouldn't tell me who it was. Said the check came with a real nice letter requesting no one ( Read more... )

I'm home. My car's not. The Woof Mobile is in the library's parking lot, dead. At first, it would fire up, but then die immediately. Now it won't even start. All the electrics work. It's got an almost full tank of gas. Ron came and got me and did what trouble shooting he could do and he's pretty sure it's a fuel problem. Either the fuel ( Read more... )
