Homer at the vets

The Magical World of Tylluan Penry

Paganism, the green man, solitary witchcraft, spells and festivals.... plus just about anything else that crops up along the way!I have written a book, 'Seeking the Green' about my personal pagan path, which was published by Capall Bann last year (2008) Their website is at : http://www.capallbann.co.uk/(copy and past into your browser window).

This year they have also published another book of mine, 'The Magical Properties of Plants and how to find them.'

I am a regular speaker at the Witchfests run by the CHildren of Artemis. You can find out more about these events by checking out the Children of Artemis main website.

Homer at the vets

by tylluanpenry @ Monday, 31. Dec, 2007 – 10:00:17

I'm not the only one who gets buffetted about by the dogs. Homer, the Bassett Hound was unlucky enough to have Barney land on top of him on Friday after a game of tug of war (with my cardigan, unfortunately.)

The result - Homer has been limping. When he limps he gets all sad and depressed and stops eating, so today Mr Penry took him to the vet. On the way we heard a strange hissing sound.
Is it a plane?
Is it a bird?
Is it Superman?

None of these - Homer had sat on the de-icer and managed to spray it all over the floor.

[The vet gave him an injection and some painkillers and all is now well in Homer's world. I think maybe I should visit the vet too.....]

  Thanks Jack! He says he might be able to manage some gingerbread later on, and maybe a bit of chicken breast washed down by a nice little Chablis....

    Maybe the odd truffle perhaps.

      Yes, I'm sure he'd appreciate that - although he might have to fight Florence for it!

        That sounds like Gaelic, Jack - what does it mean?

Maybe Homer should stick to his writing...

You're still sore then? That's not so good...

  Homer says he was just minding his own business when that great lump Barney landed on him. (I know the feeling) He says he will get back to his writing as soon as possible....
  
  Yes, I'm still sore, but at least it's down a notch from excruciating agony now

    Sounds as though there's a little improvement then; take it easy and get well soon.

      Yes, I'm going to do my best!
      
      Homer's managed a little chicken broth this evening but he's really off his grub.

        It's never a good sign when a dog's off his food... hope you're both feeling better today.

        A little bit better, thanks, Usky! But I think both of us have a bit further to go!

        Well, I tell myself that I am, but to be honest the amount of improvement is miniscule and this cold weather isn't really helping!

        That's not so good then... especially as it's set to get colder over the next few days.

Aaaah! He looks so sweet!

  Oh he is sweet - and exceptionally cunning and intelligent too.
  But for the moment, he's his Mam's wounded little soldier, and I've got to make a big fuss of him!
