Like all babies, she's irresistably cute when she's sleeping
8:23 p.m.
Today, my puppy's been odiferous and not in that doggy-smell sort of way.
No, she's had gas. Not just a little gas either. A LOT of gas. I didn't realise how bad it actually was until I returned from the grocery store and opened the door to the smell of stale dog fart (it was particularly pungent, having just come in from the outside).
Poor Dusty - it's not her fault. She was napping on my lap this morning and looked puzzled when I started gagging.
I'm wondering if this is some breed-specific quirk of miniature schnauzers that my mom forgot to tell me about? Perhaps there's a more meaningful reason she named her dog 'Tudie?'
Whatever the case, I hope this clears up soon. It's too cold to open up the windows!
