I LOVE that she captured Riley PAWfectly....Thank you!

Buck up Buttercup....

Mommy was able to get da medicine into Boo's ears dis morning all by herself, dad was out gallivanting all over town wif his daddy, so ....mom had to buck up and do it herself and guess what? She managed to get it in her ears and walk away wif all 10 fingers, ok da muzzle may of had somefing to do wif all 10 fingers being accounted for, but hey she did it.
NOTE....Boo is NOT a fan of the MUZZLE!!!!

Pic from da week...

Boo is NOT very Ladylike in this picture, however she is telling mom no more pictures by sticking out her tongue.
Boo was exhausted after the vet visit can you tell?
oh here I am being what else???  HANDSOME!!!!

I haz gone and done it...

I haz gone and done it...I iz hiring meself an attorney, hiz name iz Rufus Rabbit, cookie attorney. He will see to it I getz my fees, payable and on time. I know da cookie fairy haz come to our house in da past but I don't fink I haz ever heard of da "Cookie Snatcher"...so mom haz NO excuse for why she is paying me in HALF COOKIES. I don't understand her reasoning....here's my take....
I Titan Tagliavia Pooper Patrolman as sworn, (by RIley da Pooper Captain) will uphold all my duties to notify mommy and daddy whenever somepup haz to go outside for business. I will tell you each and every time, which by the way I exceed my duties in this area as I am ranked MARKSMAN...hehehehehe No pun intended. 
The responsibilities of da mommy and daddy is to actually pay me...I mean,.... dey haz to pay my fee for all duties performed, meaning if I inform you by either verbal (bark) or nonverbal (pawing at your arm till you pay attention to me) that a pup, any pup...me, Sandy, or Boo haz to outside and dey GO, den I get getz a WHOLE cookie. Dees were the arrangements Riley left in place before he handed over da responsibility to me. You knew going into dis contract what da terms were and you agreed to dem, so quit stiffin me wif half cookies! No where in da contract does it allow you to modify it for any reason...and da excuse mom gives is BOLOGNA, oh wait dat could subastute for a cookie, but back to my point...WHOLE COOKIES....weight control my batookis...dats right I said "batookis" I am an angry pup, half cookies...! 
So if dees conditions are not met, den I will haz Rufus Rabbit, cookie attorney...make some calls. Rufus Rabbit, cookie attorney haz friends in high places I know he haz a friend Zack Rabbit wif television connections...I will go public wif dis injustice if I haz to





******todays rant brought on by a HALF COOKIE*****

New Name????

I am QUICKLY shedding my title of The TERRORIST and taking on da Title Pooper Patrolman. I tell daddy whenever someone has to poop, and I iz GOOD at it. However we haz a system worked out where I will go out and go, then we come inside den about 10 minutes later I let dad know Boo has to go out, she goez out and I get a fee for my services (another cookie) Den i wait a few more minutes and tell Daddy Sandy needs to go out and after she comes in I getz ANOTHER cookie...I haz a good thing going, Dis does NOT work wif mommy...she no give extra cookies, cause she is a smart COOKIE. *SIGH* mom too smart sometimes for MY own good, but I can givez her sad puppy dog eyes and melt her heart and sometimes get a 1/2 a cookie,

 HALF A COOKIE???...I fink she calls dis weight control, I callz it "unfair labor and wage practices"...I fink I may need to hire an attorney, cause I not being paid ALL fees (complete whole cookies) for services rendered.

Riley is HOME

I placed Dixie next to him till she begins her journey. I have a froggy holding an umbrella to catch all of Mommy's tears. Those pretty pretty flowers were handmade by Zack Rabbit and sent to him when we first learned he had cancer, He sniffed and sniffed his flowers. The flowers are placed on top of a clay mold of Riley's paw print. The Snowbaby is holding a snowglobe of an angel.

Big Bed

I iz on da big bed and I slept and I didn't chew NUFFIN'! Mom sayz I iz getting to be so big. Daddy and me go for walkies and I love to play wif Sandy, but mom keeps calling me a new name and I don't get it....she is calling me "hemorrhoid"...HUH??? She sayz itz cause I walk right behind daddy and I won't let him out of my sight. I try and tell her, I loves my daddy and I fink he is cool and I want to be just like him and go and do everything he does....so I follow him EVERYWHERE he goes. 

HOME

Riley is home...he now rests on his shelf right beside his sister Lilgurl.
Zaziart iz making a portrait for his wall to hang behind him... http://www.zaziart.net/

Guess what I did today?????

I PEED on mommy! Yup when she wasn't looking and daddy was, I lifted my leg and let loose and daddy said "NUFFIN"! Dats right he just laughed and laughed, he finks I am a funny pup. Mom on da otter hand is not really impressed wif my antics dis week, I chewed her baby blanket and now I have gone and peed on her. Daddy tried to reason wif her saying " he is marking his mommy, telling all the other dogs in the neighborhood, you are HIS mommy and don't even think about coming any closer. I don't fink mom bought it....Papa said he would fix her baby blanket this week, so she loves me again....for now.

DOGHOUSE

Mom sayz I am in da Doghouse and she does not see me getting out anytime soon. 

I may have accidentally CHEWED her baby blanket.

I said accidentally...its not like she found me wif it in my mouf, oh wait she did,

  I can explain..... I was moving it off da dresser and I kinda got it stuck on my toof and was pulling to get it free, really pulling.... but only to get it free, HONEST!!! 

Mom...do you still love me???? 

I give you big sad puppy eyes.....

Yoga

Mom took her first yoga class today, she really liked it. She said it was an hour of nothingness. She really liked the whole stretch and relax part...she does this at home, i don't know why she thought she needed to go to the gym to relax. I help her relax all day...oh wait yelling "Titan?" is not relaxing...well she does it a lot so i thought she liked it, oops my bad. Boo is starting to eat more, fank goodness she was scaring mommy....as for scaring mommy, we had tornado warnings at our house, we NEVER have tornado warnings, mom wouldn't let us go outside she said we would blow away like Toto did, ahhh who is Toto?

Hi

Hello, Titan here.....We are doing as well as can be expected. Mom is getting better and daddy is too...I keep them loaded up in da kisses department, I giving enough for two, (me and da Riguy) Annabelle is grieving big time, she haz been vomiting, but I think she will be ok soon.

So SAD

I'm sorry to write Riley crossed over Rainbow Bridge yesterday morning, he had a seizure then was diagnosed with fluid on his heart, his mommy and daddy are very sad. I, Titan will be taking over his blog so we can continue to share our misadventures the way Riley would have wanted....so now we are going to call it the Terrible Tagliavia Mis-Adventures.

Mom and daddy haz to go into Boston dis week to Fenway Bark, oh i mean Park...i fink dis is where daddy said he is going to see da Green Monsta...why in da heck would he want to see a green monsta, he iz weird, but oh well he'z my dad. Mom sayz she is excited to go because this is da one time dey get to go to da ballpark and sit in REALLY expensive seats and enjoy a double header...ahhh I don't fink i like the sound of dat? Double header? Doez dat mean you will be gone ALL DAY??? oh well dat means Auntie Erin and Papa will come and visit wif us and take us out to...well you know what we do outside i don't have to paint a picture for you, right?

Hello.....

I did not forget about my bloggie...I haz been workin on some stuff behind da scenes...It'z a SECRET so I can'tz tell you just yet, but itz kinda HUGE!!!!

Riley talking to mommy

Guess who came to see me today?

My PAPA and GRAMMY...dey came to get food from my momz but I know papa really came to check out my eye..and I must say i waz having a very good lookin day, da eye looks outstanding and papa said so too. Mom was very happy to come home dis morning and see dat my eye was looking so good, she finally breathed a little today because of it, she was starting to turn BLUE, hehehehehe.OH OH OH  I iz a very bad brudder......


Happy Birthday Titan, I love you Happy one years old!!!!!

UPDATE....

I am NOT cancer free but it appears my tumor is SHRINKING!!!!!!

set backs stinkers

I kinda have a bit of a set back going on, you see mommy came home from work yesterday to find me outside wif daddy going for a small morning walkie, she came up and was going to give me kisses till she saw my eye, mind you it doesn't hurt but mommy just looked and stared and then said, "what the BLEEP happened to his eye?" I knew right then my eye must not look good, cause mommy was using some really bad words, .....papa dos words were BAD, wif a capitol B. Anyway I gotz my kisses but not afta mom said I needed to go right in and get some ointment in my eye...let me tell you I get ointment in my eye every hour, dis is NOT da highlight of my day, but mom sayz its good for me. So in da house we go and mom getz out da yucky stuff and squirts it in my eye, yucky yuck yuckers. I got a really good treat afta so its not all bad. Then mom and daddy leave for the gym, they return home and mom says she really doesn't like the look of my eye but the last time this happened all they did was give me Rimadyl and ointment and sent me home, so mom haz both and is using them both to clear up my eye. She takes such good care of me, its not funny. Mom can't wait to come home and check my eye today, I hope it looks better, if not I may have to go back to the vetz...I have had enough visits der, I'm all set wif dat for awhile.

Hellllooooooo

Hi everyone, just wanted to stop by and let you know I am doing great, I have finished my radiation and the eye is well...RED! I iz ok though, and I get to go for my walks everyday wif daddy, "cept in da rain...he thinks he will melt, I try and tell him he is a good daddy but not sweet enough to melt. Mom and I go for walks too, she is more the outdoorsy type to we walk in da rain, mom knows there is nuffin sweet about her....I iz kidding, momma...hehehehehe...Papa will agree wif me so der. Ok so dat is all for now but I promise I will be back here tonight wif an update as to all things RILEY!!!! 

BOOZERS

Happy Barkday to my BOOZERS...wuv you Annabelle!!!

DATS IT???

I haz my last radiation appointment tomorrow...mom said I haz been going for a month but I sure don't think so, its gone by so fast.

Walkie....

Mom asked me if I wanted to go for our morning walk this morning...I waz like DUH??? of course I want to go for my walkie. So mom put on my leash and off we went down the stairs and thats when it hit mom we were not going for a walk we were going for a RUN! I was feeling so good I wanted to go running this morning and running I did, but you should have seen me dragging mom, she couldn't keep up, I kept looking back as if to say " if you can't keep up, let go of the leash, you're holding me back."  I think she would have been happier if I told her we were running so she could have changed her shoes, oops bad doggie no biscuit. We went for a nice run then we returned home for some treats and water...ok turn about is fair play right? when mom gave me my favorite treat...FRENCH TOAST STIX they had a new ingredient in them...she slipped my meds in der...dats unacceptable. I was not happy but hey French toast stix wif meds is better dan no French toast stix at all right? Mom didn't even make me share wif da otta pups, how cool is dat, i haz dem all to myself. I manged to sucker dad in to a walkie later in da day, but he laid down da law before we left he told me " DIS IS A WALK NOT A RUN, GOT IT?" yeah yeah old man i got it...fun stuff wif da mommy only.

Radiation

I hadz my radiation today....it was not so bad except I  had to stay at da hospital for a long time wif out my mommy, i hate dat. Mommy came and gotz me as soon as dey called, she was right here waiting for me when i woke up from my very drug induced nappy. I had a little trouble standing when I got home but mommy cuddled wif me and we took a nappy....ok honestly...I took a nappy and mommy well she watched me sleep, cause she is a worry wort (dats what daddy calls her) Annabelle and Sandy were waiting for me at da door when I gotz home, Titan was barking his fool head off in da crate...I went and said a quick hello den I was ready to SLEEP. Titan climbed up on da bed and we all took a nappy together....
    I iz so sorry dis iz all over da place but hey, I got some really good drugs today and they have not quite worn off yet, so I in a la la land state of mind. Lalalala oh look a kitty..... oh where was I ? I fink I might have a touch of ADHD at da moment...

"Attention-Deficit Hazy Disorder"

 hehehehe at least i iz still trying to be funny. mom sayz I a funny puppy.

Thank you

Thank you so much for all your support...we are doing ok, mommy and daddy are still crying every now and then but they are getting better. I start my radiation on Friday at 11 am, they tell me i won't feel a thing. My CT scan went very well the other day however my eye is really really red and swollen, but it doesn't hurt at all. They did find the tumor and it is HUGE we are talking golf ball size as mommy put it, but I don't feel any pain. I know dis cause da doctor tried to push my eye back in my head and I didn't even wince, nothing didn't feel a thing....Mommy and daddy sure did wince, they actually cried at the thought of da doctor hurting me. I am going to see a very nice Dr Lee on Friday and he is going to give me my radiation then I get to go hone and cuddle wif my mommy cause daddy will be going to work.

I haz a tumor called "SARCOMA" behind my eye...da vet said it is an aggressive type of cancer. Mom and daddy keep crying and giving me hugs and kisses. Mommy sayz I iz going to start radiation next week to keep me comfortable, I am in no pain so mom iz happy bout dat...but dat is all she is happy about...she tells daddy her whole world is falling apart. I will bloggie more later but right now I haz to go take care of mommy...dose tears just keep coming...i getting all wet, shake shake shake....

Ct scan

Hi everyone just wanted to let you know that I go for my CT scan in the morning....Mommy haz to drop me off at 7:30 am and I can not go home till after 9pm...dis iz going to be a very long day away from my mommy. I don't like it one bit and I know my mommy hates it as much as I do, daddy sayz he getz a raw deal on dis blog cause I never mention him but I know he loves me as much as mommy does, so daddy I mention you ok? My daddy iz da bestest daddy ever....Hi daddy!!!!

Fingers crossed

I iz going to the vet hospital today for a follow up appointment for my eye, please wish me luck and say a pray for me that it iz an infection and not a tumor, fanks.....

Sick

I am very sick right now, I haz a swollen eye and da vet finks it may be a tumor pressing on my eye making it pop out of socket, dis is not good and Mommy is a wreck...things don't look good and da vet said I can not see out of dat eye anymore...dats ok i know where my mommy, daddy and food bowl are...so i ok wif dat. I am not in pain, but i look funny wif one BIG eye bulging out of my head...I am on lots of medicines. We should know more by Monday, please say a prayer for me, fanks in advance.....hugs, Riley
