The Cone of Shame

A couple weeks ago my dog Roofus cut open his paw while going to the bathroom. It was a pretty big gash and my parents tried to fix it. They soaked it, put it in a bandage, and made sure that he wouldn't take off the bandage. He's a dog, so of course he took off the bandage ten minutes later. For the past couple of weeks my family and I have bandaged it three times a day, put a bag over it, and tried to make sure that he doesn't lick it. We didn't want to go to the vet for him and the "no licking" and/or "no biting" commands were not working, so my dad had to do what he had to do. My dad took Roofus with him and they went to Petsmart. When they came home Roofus was wearing the Cone of Shame! It was SO funny! I was laughing so hard, I started crying!

The bad thing is, is that the Cone of Shame is to small for him. Today he took off the bag, the bandage, and he started licking on his foot, with the Cone of Shame on! I think we might need to buy a bigger one.

My First Rabbit Show Part II

Hi!!! Today was the big day! The Junior Livestock Show. It was such a long day. I woke up at a quarter till six, then left the house at a quarter till seven, and was at the fairgrounds till like 11:30am. It was so slow in the barn. But it was worth it because I came out of there at 11:30am with a big smile on my face!!! Mr. Squibbles did great!!! He won 1st place for when the judge was checking him!!! And, this is my first year so I'm not all that great at these things, but on the score sheet it said that he got Best of Show and B.O.S.V. I really don't know what that is. Then, he was in the Fur competition. He didn't win anything that time, but it's okay. After that was the big deal competition. SHOWMANSHIP!!! On the score sheet the judge marked that we got a 94/100. Isn't that great?!?! That made us win 2nd place in the Intermediate Division!!! I'm really proud of Mr. Squibbles and happy that we were able to get in some practice for the County Fair!
