Jump Eleanor! Jump!
Yeah!
Yes!
The pool is back!
Say good, wonderful, beautiful morning Pawdience!
We's at the vet.
To find out about all kinds of stuff we can do
to make you feel better. What you think of that?
Huh?
I think that's a great idea.
Yeah, you're a great idea.
Let's see what we can find out.
Are you happy?
Say all day, every day.
Are you ready?
3... 2... 1...
Hold on! I need to check for squirrels.
Try again! 3... 2... 1...
Memphis is like, I'm going!
I got this! I checked for squirrels.
Apparently, I didn't check for birds.
The birds are usually up high enough though.
Don't have to worry about them as much.
Run! Look it! Look!
It's... What is the date today?
May 14th or 15th or something crazy.
That tree is almost open.
That tree is finally open.
That tree is trying to open.
It's also 77 degrees today.
First really nice warm day we've had
all spring.
Ah! Northern Michigan weather.
That's pretty much how it is for you.
So clearly, as you can tell,
we are back from the vet with Miss Memphis.
What do we have to say Memphis?
Like, see you later. Bye!
So part of the reason
I took her to the vet today was for the...
Oh! Critter!
I don't think either of you caught him.
I'm pretty sure he's under the shed.
Memphis is like, I'm going to check him out too.
Look at you move! Look at you!
That was beautiful!
So part of the reason
we went to the vet this morning...
Let's go see if we can see what they're looking at.
I know what you're looking at.
You can't get him. He's under the shed.
So we took Memphis in today
to have a consultation with Dr. Ryan
about having PRP therapy done again.
I for some reason thought we did PRP therapy in November.
Apparently, we did PRP therapy
with Memphis last July.
So getting it done again,
definitely a good idea.
He agrees that we should have it done.
She's going to have it done next week.
Thankfully, he was able to get her in pretty quick.
So, as far as I know,
she's going to have it done on her right knee
and her right hock.
Look at her go! She's like,
I don't know what you guys are complaining about.
I can move just fine.
You are on the move today.
If they can get enough plasma,
they will also be doing
her left hock as well.
If not, her left hock is not as bad as her right.
So we're going to go with the right side
and see what we can do from there.
Bye Eleanor! See you later!
But that's kind of where we're at.
So if you guys are new here,
you may not have any idea what I mean
when I say PRP therapy.
If you're new, welcome to our lives.
They're kind of crazy.
PRP therapy is
plasma rich
plasma...
You know what? I'm never going to remember
either, so we're just going to put it on the screen.
I call it PRP because I don't remember.
Basically what they do is they take Memphis's
own plasma, they spin
out the plasma from her blood
and then they inject just the plasma
into her joints. Usually they can do
two joints at a time.
Sometimes if they're lucky, they can do three.
It just depends on how much plasma they can spin when they do the blood draw.
So we're hoping that they can at least do
the two, possibly the third.
And then, what else
are we doing? We're starting her on Attaquan.
Any of you in the comments that have used
the Attaquan, please sound off.
I would love to hear your experience with it
because again, if you've been here for a while
you know that we had a horrible experience
with the Labrella, which has made me
really nervous to try any type of injectable
medicine, but I've talked to a lot of people
who have done the Attaquan
and they've had great results.
What's crazy is I talked to a lot of people who used the Labrella
and had great results too, so I'm still a little nervous
about it, but I had
a really long conversation with Dr. Ryan
this morning while we took Memphis
to the vet and I feel a lot more confident
about giving it to her.
I think that's going to be the plan.
I'm going to put the dogs inside right now and I'm going to
go see how the boys are doing
working on the fence. We've got some
fence progress going on
and it's looking pretty good, so I'm going to
head down there and check out the fence.
Right girls?
It's warm today.
We might have to open up that pool today, huh?
Yeah, maybe. Maybe.
We'll see. At least I got fence
work to do. One dog! Two dog!
Three dog!
Good job!
Hey pretty girl! I did also
show Dr. Ryan
Memphis' cool brace and he
really likes the idea of those.
He also said he was going to send
me some information on some other supplements
we could be using for Memphis.
He asked me what we had her on
and I told him that we currently have her
on the Myos Muscle Formula.
He said this stuff is great to keep her on it
and then we switched from Dasiquin
to Geico Flex Plus.
He also said this is great
so he said to keep her on those
and he's going to send me some other stuff
to possibly start giving her.
Go on! Into the living room!
We got the AC's on for you.
You girls chill out in here.
I won't be gone long.
I'm going to go down and see what the fence looks like.
Hey look it!
Look at this!
While I was at the vet
they got to work.
We're almost to the corner!
This is so cool!
Yesterday all of the posts got cemented in.
Today all the cement was dry and now
they are putting out the panels.
It's looking pretty good!
Are you playing pretend driving?
Where are you driving to?
You're going on a road trip?
Yeah? Where to?
Where are you pretending to go?
You don't know, do you?
Yeah? Where?
Oh! You're going to a campsite?
Okay! Alright! I'll take it!
You got dirt on your face, bud!
This is so crazy!
It looks great!
It looks pretty good!
Hey! You got a fence!
It's a fence!
It's so cool!
Check it out! You can see your fence from here!
Yeah! We're on the other side!
Does it look amazing? Yeah!
It looks pretty good!
They're still building on it.
It's got to go all the way around.
It looks pretty good from here, huh?
Yeah!
Ready to keep riding?
Keep riding! You can do it!
There you go!
You got it John Matthew?
Yeah! You definitely know how to ride your bike!
You got it?
There you go!
You're doing it!
Oh! So close!
You can do it!
Charlotte is going to leave us behind!
Alright! Back from the fence...
I also was going to tell you guys...
What do you think those two did?
While she was at the vet's office?
Don't worry! I have some clips of it!
So yeah! For those of you wondering...
Those two still do not like it!
This one is not home! Hi baby!
I know! I'm back from the fence!
What do you think?
Do I smell like Stewart?
I did play with Mr. Stewart for a little bit.
He's going to be so excited when he has a fenced in yard!
Good morning Memphis! More like afternoon!
Hi Eleanor! How you doing?
The vet just called to confirm Memphis's
PRP therapy on Wednesday.
So, looks like she'll be getting it!
They'll be getting... They're going to try
to get her in and get it done!
Get her in and get it done!
How come you're getting in before the dogs?
Jump in the pool
and I will get the dogs!
Yeah?
Alright!
First of the year!
I thought the heater was on!
I think the air is just really warm!
Ha ha ha!
That's exactly what I wanted!
Ha ha ha!
So refreshing!
Alright! Go swimming Greg!
Ha ha ha!
Yeah?
Yep!
I'll go get your dogs!
I swear this dog knows what's going on!
She's like...
Wait a minute! It's not fair!
It's not fair! Greg's in the water!
You're not in the water!
I'm letting you in!
I don't know how I feel about this!
Are you ready for this?
Are you ready for it Jamie?
Is this open?
Mom?
Are you teasing me?
Please don't run around like psychos!
Are you ready for them?
Here they come!
What was that?
You didn't even get in!
You're supposed to get in the pool!
Get in! Save Greg! Get in!
Jump Eleanor! Jump!
Yeah!
My goodness!
That's the happiest pupper on the planet!
She's been trying to get in this pool
for two weeks now!
Here she comes Greg!
Greg, will you do the thing where you hold me?
Maybe? Maybe? Maybe?
I changed my mind!
I'm going back for here!
Please don't run around like crazy now!
That's exactly what's gonna happen!
Feel better?
Yes!
Going in again El? Look out! Here she comes!
She's not supposed to be running
and she is!
Memphis is like,
Yeah! It's enough for me! I'm good!
My dog bed is not out yet!
I know! We'll get your umbrella!
Getting back in El?
Watch Memphis! Don't fall!
Greg would have to save you!
She's like,
I don't really want to get in the water, but this is great!
I like this part right here!
Maybe I'll get in the water next time!
Maybe next time?
Eleanor, can you get in the water?
Splash Greg! Maybe she'll get you!
Get in there El!
Get in there! Get him!
Get him Eleanor! Get him!
She's thinking about it!
She's like, no I'm going for the bugs!
Dad's getting bugs out of the pool, I gotta get the bugs!
Get in there El!
She's like, no way I got in once! I'm good now!
I did my swim! I did my lap!
Get in Eleanor!
Yeah! Here she comes!
She's coming for you dad!
Coming for you!
She's like, you better hold me, cause here I come!
You know what I want!
She's like, yeah!
Here I go! Look how fast I am!
Swimming the laps!
She's so fast!
She's like, hi Greg! Bye Greg! Thanks!
She's like, I'm good!
Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!
Don't run!
And wiggles! She's like, this is great!
This is what I missed!
Not supposed to run around the pool!
Please!
And thank you!
Trying to convince Kira
that she should get in too!
Although, she's shedding way worse than Eleanor!
She's like, I'm thinking
about it!
Thinking about it!
She's like, maybe!
She sees
Eleanor running around!
She's like, maybe I go out there with Eleanor
and run around! Whoa!
Look out Jamie! She's thinking about it!
She's like, it's not
warm enough for me to get in the pool yet!
Maybe not yet!
Remember when she used to just jump in?
Now she's like, nope! Nope!
You're not gonna watch me jump in!
You gonna get in?
Your last chance! Go Kira!
Go!
Go Kira! Go!
She's like, where's my ramp?
I'm not gonna push you in!
You're not supposed to be running around the pool!
Look out!
There she goes! She's gonna do it!
She's thinking about it!
Maybe one more time around?
Maybe the ramp?
Normally, that's what she does. She has to run around a few times
and then get in. That's why she can't be in here.
That's why I usually try to
let Eleanor stay out.
Watch out! She's gonna try it! She's like, you jump in dad!
I'll jump in after you and save you!
Look out! Look out! Look out!
Make me so nervous!
You're not supposed to run around the pool!
You're not supposed...
Nope! That's too far!
This is where she'll make the debate!
She might do it now! She's gonna do it!
She's gonna do it!
You almost did it!
She might need one more lap!
Oh! That's too fast of a lap!
There it is!
Yeah!
She's like, that was my lap!
And I'm out!
Yeah!
Too much water right away, huh?
Don't wiggle! Don't wiggle by me!
Look how skinny she looks
all of a sudden!
Now, I have lost all of my floofs!
There!
She's like, yeah!
That was awesome! That's great!
Thanks guys! That's so fun!
Ready?
Going back in?
Make a lap and then go in?
She's like, I'm making a lap!
The ramp is in!
Don't drink that water! It's gross!
Jump!
Don't drink the pool water!
She's like, no! I got my feet wet! I'm good!
She's like, that's pretty good dad!
There it goes!
That's not in!
That's around!
I don't know why running around the pool
is so fun!
Jump Eleanor! Jump!
Yeah!
She's like, come on Greg! Let's race!
We're racing!
I don't know where you're racing to, but holy cow!
You're fast!
Yeah!
And...
Super wet!
Good job!
Uh-huh!
You got in and now you're all wet!
She got in and she's all wet!
Memphis was like, no!
We got the floaty out, but she didn't seem to want to float in it.
We're like, we don't need to put her in it!
Look how pretty you are!
Hi! You're all wet!
So are you!
You are skinnier this year!
Good! You did finally lose some weight!
And you look like a twig!
Apparently I have to feed you more
again!
She's weighing in at 46.6 pounds, but
I think she needs a little bit more
meat on her bones.
Kira's about perfect!
Memphis is always perfect! You are always perfect!
Look! We got your bed out. We got you some fresh water.
We got your bed out, so you can hang out out here.
Yeah!
Good stuff!
How is it every time you guys get out of the pool
and then you find something
magical to roll in?
Sometimes I wish they could just tell me
what it is that they found.
Whatever it is, Eleanor thinks it smells great!
She's like, Kira!
Get out of there! That's my stuff to roll in!
Get out of my stuff to roll in!
You don't even know what it is!
I don't know what it is! Is Kira gonna do it too?
You know it's good if Kira rolls in it.
Then you know it's really, really good
if Memphis joins in.
Let's see if Memphis joins in.
I don't know. Kira's like, what were you sniffing
that made you want to roll?
Did you find it Memphis?
Oh! Oh! Whatever it is, it's right there.
It's right... It's gotta be right there.
Is she gonna go upside down?
Is she gonna... And roll!
Roll! Roll! Roll! Roll!
Roll and wiggle! Roll and wiggle!
She's drying herself off on the grass.
She's like,
She's like, dad I got tired of waiting for you guys
drying myself off on the grass.
She's like, yes!
This is the best part!
She's like,
I'm gonna stay wet for forever.
I worked so hard to get in the pool.
I worked so hard.
Now you want to dry me off?
I don't think so.
She's like, hey you dry me off again.
I think I'm gonna have to get the blower out.
Look at her butt.
It's just coming out.
Kira's like, I'll let Greg pet me.
He doesn't have a towel in his hand.
Memphis is like, I'm dry.
You can pet me too.
Oh!
Oh yeah!
This is great!
Look at all these floofs are gonna come out as soon as you
dry me off.
Don't you eat that spicy raisin.
Spicy sky raisins.
Jalapeno snacks.
Bless you!
What is this?
Hi!
Hello!
Are you that mad that I stole your floofs?
Alright! Now she's wet.
This is what's coming out for butt.
I think...
Bless you! We need to blow your coat out.
We'll just do it the easy way.
What you think?
I don't have to put you on the table. We'll just be fast about it.
We'll get some of it out. Ready?
You're next ma'am!
You're next!
So, if you guys ever wondered
how huskies are born.
I think they're born out of this.
You can definitely
make a puppy out of it.
Holy cow! That was just these two.
I didn't even do you.
They're not even done.
They both were just done. I couldn't do anymore.
Kira was getting loud at the end.
I didn't want her scaring anybody.
What you think?
Should you get up on the table for a minute?
You had a long day.
I don't know if I should put you on the table.
You're not shedding as bad as the other two.
So, maybe not. But, maybe.
We'll see.
We didn't blow out Memphis' coat.
But, clearly you can tell.
We blew out Kira's coat.
She's also dry, which is good.
We need to get into a better habit of drying her completely after swimming.
We blew out your coat.
You look beautiful!
Look at this shiny coat.
As you can see, there's still little furs coming out of her.
She's like, don't do it mom!
Don't do it! I already did it.
I took the brush, the slicker brush
and I ran it over both of you girls.
Even after all that fur, I got out with the blower.
I got out this much more.
With the brush.
I didn't even do you!
You look tired. I'm tired.
I'm tired from all of that.
But, you both look much better.
Memphis,
I'll try to work on you the next time you get wet, I think.
The only reason I didn't do her,
was because she didn't get wet.
Since these two got wet, I figured I better do it.
The other girls went swimming today.
Memphis did not go swimming.
I'm gonna take her on a short walk.
We're gonna do about half of what we normally do.
But again,
we just gotta keep her on this routine.
Since she didn't swim,
we almost let her swim.
We probably should have let her swim.
She didn't seem to want to get in the water today.
Since she didn't swim,
we're gonna do a short little
15-20 minute walk.
We'll basically go around
and come up the short road.
Yeah?
Yeah!
She does really good on her own.
She doesn't want to run.
She doesn't really pull.
She walks differently.
I think I said this the other day too.
She walks differently when she's by herself.
Sometimes, it's a little bit easier.
Right? Sometimes.
And again, this is really just therapy
for her working on
strengthening those legs.
Holy cow!
Oh my goodness!
I just went to let the dogs outside.
I think the neighbor's house is on fire.
The neighbor's house is definitely
on fire and that was a huge explosion.
Holy cow!
I'm really hoping
it's not their house.
There's also a garage back there.
And I think that might be
what's on fire.
The garage.
Because there's stuff blowing up
back there for sure.
Holy cow!
I went to let the dogs outside before the rain started
because it was going to start raining.
I was walking through the living room
and I'm like, why is the sunset still out?
The sunset shouldn't be out.
And then I saw this
massive fireball
shoot. Oh, it's so thundery.
There's also
thunder and lightning.
But I saw this massive
fireball shoot up from the sky
and then I realized that the neighbor's
place was on fire.
Come on, it's raining.
Oh, I missed the lightning. It was right there.
Okay, back in the house.
So anyway, it's thankfully
just their workshop
that was on fire, not their house.
The fire department was there.
Other people had already called,
thankfully.
It looks like they're going to be able to
hopefully save the house.
So, I rode over there and talked to some of
the neighbors and they said everybody in the house is okay.
I did stay off
the roads that were blocked. I didn't want to get in trouble
or be in the way, but I did want to go talk to some of
the other neighbors.
So yeah, I don't know if we can still see
through the dark out this window.
You can see
glow happening right there.
That was crazy. That was
really crazy. Not what I expected
to see when going to let the dogs out.
And that is what
burned down last night. The barn.
Thankfully. It looks like
they possibly got their boat out.
But I'm not sure. But
the house survived and
everybody was okay.
What a crazy night that was.
So crazy what a difference it was from yesterday
to today. Yesterday it was 80 degrees and they were
in the pool. Today
it's 47.
And we forgot to say goodnight last night. So we're going to go ahead and do that
right now. We hope you guys enjoyed today's video.
As always, thanks so much for watching.
Thanks for subscribing. Stay positive. Dream big.
And we will see you again soon.
Goodnight Pawdience!
And yes, I verified again.
The building that burned down
last night, everybody was okay.
It was just the building. It didn't harm
the house. Thankfully.
