Milo, The Sock Eater

This is Milo with squeaky ferret.


This is Milo's newest chew toy. He likes it but not as well as the squeaky ferret.



So yesterday afternoon had an unexpected trip to the vet after Milo inhaled one of my sleeping socks. He seemed totally fine after swallowing it, but in the name of avoiding future suffering, I figured the sock needed to be removed. Happily, Milo threw up the entire contents of his stomach after the vet gave him a vomiting inducing shot, then he got another shot to stop the vomiting process. TMI, perhaps. But the good news is it only cost 140 dollars as opposed 1500 which I guess is what stomach pumping and surgical removal run for puppies.

Milo seems just fine this morning and even tried to get another sock at the first sliver of a chance available. Sigh.

It has been a mellow day so far. Veggie sausages, upside downs, a trip to Target and now we are heading to the Love Shack for the New Years Practice. Jeff and I are going to make a vegan pizza for dinner and maybe go see Carolyn Wonderland.

Here are some more pictures.
