Hi y'all!
It's been a while, so I thought I'd check in really quick.
Mama's home for a bit; I like that we get to enjoy snuggles, snacks, and lots of outdoor time. We are expecting snow every day this week, but mom assures me weather will not stop us from getting a bit of exercise each day.
Last night as I was noshing my knucklebone mama's memory was triggered:
"Oh yes Maggie, getting your dental is on my to-do list while I'm home. Though marrow and knucklebones are supposedly good for canine dental health, I do need to get Dr. K to remove any remaining plaque."
OH NO!!! I'll be required to undergo general anesthetic, which also means NO food, and time away from you mama!! Do Schnauzers pray and fast, because I'll do just that, pray for intervention, for wisdom for mama NOT to withhold food and water and subject me to anesthetic.
I begrudgingly admit healthy pretty white teeth make my smile even more fetching.
"Maggie, let's not be a drama queen. I will not subject to you any unnecessary treatments. However, overall health, for you and for me, means tending to dental health. Everything in our bodies is connected. Besides, canine dental cleaning is more expensive than a pair of Vortex Viper binoculars that I WANT, they are a necessity…but your teeth are more important, and Maggie Rose you are so worth it."
Oh mom, I really think you should purchase the binocs, seriously. Please.
I'll let you know if mama has a lapse in memory, you know she's no spring chicken, on level whatever, vintage some may say. Just sayin'
I love all y'all.
xoxo
Maggie Rose the Schnauzer 🐾
