Recent update


It's been a really long while since this blog was last updated, and for that I apologize. I've had a lot on my plate- I've finished up my graduate school this last spring and promptly moved out east.

C.C. came along, riding between Tris and I as we drove a moving van out. C.C. was a real trooper, enjoying the ride and sleeping during the dull points.

Recently we had to make an emergency move in lieu of a bit of crime making our previous neighborhood too dangerous to live in -- and we are now residing close to the Appalachian trail head by Del Water Gap. I am hoping to upload photos here soon.

In the meantime, C.C. is enjoying it out east- though the rain does put her in a grouchy mood. On the plus side, she has Felix the cat here to chase!

Don't feed me Chinese food

Today was an eventful day. Mom and dad ordered Chinese food a couple of nights ago and were eating left overs. I, being the respectful Shiba that I am, made some observances about their eating habits until Mom, being oh so wonderful and generous, which I am sure is wonderful karma, gave me several pieces of chicken from her chicken fried rice leftovers. It was delicious.
After that, Mom vaccumed the rug while I gleefully attacked that horrible machine. I victoriously beat that machine back to the closet.
Then mom made a cup of coffee and while I looked at her lovingly, I threw up. Several times.
On the rug.

Moral of this story: Don't feed me Chinese.

Now I shall rest sadly in my bed till I feel better.

Been a while!

Eek! It's been a while since our last post. CC is fine, up to date on all her shots as am I. Ironically she only had 2, whereas I had 3, which means I get to complain more. But CC's vet gave her babyfood (great idea, gonna have to steal that!) right after her lepotsospirois (spelling?) shot.
We live in an area with a lot of squirrels, mice, raccoons, and the oddball bunny rabbit, and CC, being a true shiba inu, is my mighty hunter. Yesturday she killed a fly! Next week, it could be an elephant! (In her dreams, probably not in reality). Back to the shot: it's a good idea to innoculate your animals against this as this nasty little bug is transported via water by CC's favorite food: squirrels and mice. Since it knocks out the kidneys and is a horrible way to die, we decided to go for it.
Not everyone chooses to innoculate their dogs against lepo, as it's not that serious of a deal if your dog doesn't chase squirrels, drink out puddles imagining she's a wolf, or do anything that dogs like to do. Like be dogs.
Also while we were at the vet, we were told that her heart murmur is a congenital defect, that's so minor that the vet wouldn't have picked up on it unless she was listening for it! Yeaaaaaaaaay! Green light for good health. I was really worried about her health as she's getting to be an older dog, and as I'm getting closer to graduating the more worried I am about not having enough time to catch little things before they become big things.
On cheerful, non health related news, I've chickenwired the deck so there's no possible of CC experimenting with flight. Even though she might think she's a rocket, the laws of gravity still apply to her, like everyone else. Expect possibly cats, as I've seen them defy the rules of gravity and logic multiple times. Case in point, my parent's new cat, who I can't figure out if he's a tad mentally challenged or if he just thinks he's a gecko, and can walk on everything. Ceilings included if the laser pointer goes there.
Anyways, this concludes another moment in the adventures of CC Lemon!

After redecorating...



After redecorating the apartment, CC has had more room to chill out. Specifically under the window where the breezes come in. It's cute because she's sleeping more under the window now, when she used to be easily alarmed by the window shades billowing in the breeze.


Ok, enough random jibberish! Here's for the CC pictures!

C.C. Lemon's adventures

Hi!

This is a blog about the adventures of C.C. Lemon, a shiba inu. C.C. is 14 years old this summer, and she has been with me since she was 5 months old. Over the years I've gotten to watch her mature and bloom into a wonderful little shiba who has possessiveness issues with the couch.

Everyone has their flaws.

On this note, I would like to say welcome and I hope you enjoy reading this!
