Sometimes Barn-E and Stella’s playtime sounds like they are bringing down the house. This video is pretty mild compared to those wild times.
Right now the house is quiet. I sent the cats upstairs and Stella is alone. She’s tearing up brown packaging paper for fun. Better that than anything important.

Stella returned to the Pulaski Veterinary clinic for a booster shot today.
Before the vet administered the shot, he gave her a treat of soft cheese to lick off a paper plate. The idea was to distract her so she wouldn’t associate pain with going to the veterinarian.
Stella gobbled the cheese and didn’t even flinch when given the booster shot. In a month she’ll be back again for her fourth booster. By then she’ll be old enough for her rabies inoculation, too.
So far, Stella likes her trip to see her doctor.
By the way, she gained a pound since coming to live with me. Stella had to be treated for itchy skin. The pills worked. Her hair is growing back nicely.

Where did Stella go? She’s in and around the hosta plants. When she in her tunnels, she’s difficult to see.
Sometimes I think she’s coming out on the right, only to find her running past me on the left.
When she wants to hide, Stella is almost impossible to find.

There are many benefits of getting up early. One is the beauty found at sunrise.
Another is enjoying it with my four-footed friend, Stella, as we work on housebreaking.
I celebrate the beauty of the morning and the fact that Stella is getting better at doing her business outside.

Housebreaking a puppy isn’t easy. Stella is on her way to being a good house dog.
I’ll take anything that takes us closer to the time when I can trust her in the house. She’s well on her way, though I know today was a fluke, but I’ll take it.
Until next time, that’s all there is from Sunnybook Farm.
