Magical Monday
At least it is magical for us, we are HOME!!! Finally!!! And we are all very happy and very tired!!!
And where are we? Yep, we are in the no-sibe zone, the barricade is down. The roofers haven't started yet, maybe tomorrow. The weather has not been very cooperative. But once they start, we will have very limited access to our yard - too much flying debris and nails and staples for it to be safe for us outside.
We spent today in the spa and got all that dead winter fur washed and blown away. We feel so soft and clean now.
Ciara and Thunder did very well at their home away from home. They got lots and lots of attention and hugs and treats and extra playtime. But poor Phantom, he did not fare so well. He ate just about nothing from Tuesday night until Saturday afternoon. The vet helpers tried everything, even going to the deli for some turkey and Sonic for a burger. Finally Mom had one of our human sisters cook some pasta with some parmesan cheese sprinkled on it and bring it to the vet's place. He finally ate a bit of that. Then Sunday they got him to eat a bit of his kibble by handfeeding him. Today he didn't eat again. Why? Well, first of all, he probably was unhappy about being away from home. But the biggest problem was the weather. Every single day or night that we were there, we had very loud thunderstorms with strong winds and hail. Mom is sure he was very upset by that. The weather is still a problem and we will likely be under a tornado watch soon. But at least he is home and will hopefully feel better. He ate a little meat for Mom tonight and is now hunkered down in his bunker crate. Paws crossed the weather and Phantom get better.
We are way behind with the blogs and will do our best to catch up. We may just have to limit our time to reading without comments. Hope you all understand.
Woos ~ Phantom, Thunder, and Ciara

Oh you all look so pretty and clean. Mom was going to bathe us today, but her day got away from her... Has Phantom tried Sea Jerky? It's really just chicken jerky but it's got lots of good stuff in it like glucocimine. It's what they gave me during my acupuncture to 'distract' me. We'd be happy to pick some up for Phantom next time I go to the special vet -- probably next Monday. We all LOVE it...

OH Bless his poor sweet heart. I feel so badly for Phantom. I think your two legger sister is a true treasure fur fixin him pasta and Parm..
ReplyDeleteI will cross my paws that the bad weather stays away and that he gets all settled back in.
PeeS... Phantom and Thunder.. do NOT let Ciara see my blog tomorrow.. it is DIS GUS TING!!
BUTT your entries fur the Bug House were certainly not!! Everybuddy LOVED them!!!!
While you is sitting in the No Sibe Zone, I think you should roll around in that red stuff to get the shampoo smells off of you. But if'n you say I told you to do that I will deny it.
ReplyDeleteI know the smile on The Momster's face is as big as the ones on all three of woo!
ReplyDeleteWhat is it Dorothy used to tell Toto?

The weather has been awful. After we fell asleep the other night, Bailey started barking and when Mom woke up she heard the tornado sirens. We all went into the basement and turned on the tv and watched the storms for a couple hours till it was safe to go back to bed. Poor Mom hasn't had a good night's sleep in days. She's grumpy!
ReplyDeleteMorgan, Tsar and the Porties
ps - Tsar refused to eat tonight, so maybe another storm?
Poor baby, were you waiting for the pasta with cheese? BOL Welcome home!
ReplyDeleteBenny & Lily
Darn it Phantom, we command you to eat.
ReplyDeleteRemy and Flash
Phantom, you has us all very worried bout you. Pleeeeeze eat! Sissy April was sick too (again) last week, but has finally snapped out of it again and eating everything in sight.
ReplyDeleteGlad you are back home again! There's no place like home!
Oh Phantom! That must have been so hard on you, but you are back at the estate and safe and sound. You all look splendid in your white floof.
ReplyDeleteSlobbers,
Mango
You all look beawootiful after your spa treatments! Phantom, we're sure sorry you had such a bad time because of the storms. We hope you feel better now that you are home and please eat something! We worry about you! We're crossing paws for you handsome boy!
ReplyDeleteOhhhh, poor Phantom. I'm sure your Mom is finding all kinds of good stuff for you to eat now that you're home. I just hope all that banging and hammering won't be too scary. Our Maggie was VERY sensitive to stuff like thunder storms, so I know how scary it can be.
ReplyDeleteLive it up in the no-sibe zone. You won't get too many chances!!
Welcome home!!! All of you look gorgeous!! Phantom, we will have our paws crossed and prayers said for you to start eating good! Lots of love, Debbie & Holly
ReplyDeletePoor Phantom! We're purring for you, darling. But that first pic of you all smiling has us hoping that nwo you're home, you'll be OK.
ReplyDeleteWelcome home my furiends!
ReplyDeleteWoofs and Licks,
Maggie Mae
Glad to hear that everyone is back home!
ReplyDeleteSorry to read that Phantom did not fair well, poor guy.
Hope you all stay safe with the bad weather approaching
Oh dear Phantom~Isis sends her softest comforting wooos, she has the same problem with not eating when away from home- and she totally understands those nasty boomies:( hope you feel better huskerboo!
ReplyDeleteAnd thank you all so much for your well wishes for RA he is doing much better today:) take care mates!
RA & Isis
Poor Phantom! I sure understand what he is going through. Samuel is very afraid of the thunder and bad weather and doesn't like to eat either. And, we have had a lot of storms lately!
ReplyDeleteWe sure hope the weather calms down and Phantom can get his appetite back.
Holly
I'm glad Ciara and Thunder enjoyed their vacation at least =]
ReplyDeleteHopefully you can get Phantom to eat something soon. Luckily (maybe?) Snickers is a bit of a pig and never turns down anything he can eat...Have you tried canned green tripe? To people, it smells and looks nasty - but I've never seen a dog turn it down. It might just do the trick =]
Glad you are back at home!
ReplyDeleteAnd sure I hope Phantom will feel better now.
Paws crossed!
Take care
Kisses and hugs
Lorenza
We hope Phantom feels better soon and the storms stop. Poor Fellow.
ReplyDeleteyou all look beautiful. Are you going to get red paws again, now that the barricade is down?
XXXOOO Daisy, Kendra & Bella
I am agreeing with everybody that your Spa picture is really super gorgeous! Wow, you are so beautiful, you three!
ReplyDeleteI hope Phantom starts eating again and doesn't let the pounding scare him. I love the Sister who made him pasta and cheese!
Kisses,
Stella
all the smiling faces :)
ReplyDeletefeel better soon Phantom.
You all look so nice and clean! I was just looking at the chi's the other day and thinking they could really use a bath. I have a long list of stuff I need to do, I'll have to add that to it.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry Phantom isn't eating. I know how worrisome that must be. Hopefully now that he's home, he'll be able to settle down again.
So glad to have you back even with limited backyard access...
ReplyDeletePoor Phantom! I wish I could make him a hot dog, peanut butter, cream cheese, roast beef and egg stew that he'd gobble up and get fat! Many good thoughts for a better appetite. Have you tried the Thunder Shirt on him? We've had some success from our clients who've bought them.
The kiddos look lovely! Nyxie had a good bath and both girls were brushed out this weekend (again). I will email you soon!
Welcome home,,,
ReplyDeleteOf course we understand,,,
we are just happy to hear from you.
We hope Phantom gets to feeling safe,, and better very soon!
love
tweedles
The 3 of you look so floofy and soft!! Sorry to hear that poor Phantom's been bothered by the bad weather.. hope the weather gets better soon and he regains his appetite.
ReplyDeleteYou all look lovely! That spa treatment was great for you!
ReplyDeleteMaybe Phantom needs to try a Thundershirt. Dad put Lilac's on early this morning because she was unhappy about the weather and it worked like magic! We were all very impressed by how much it helped her.
Bunny
We are glad you are home and hope that the weather gets a little nicer or at least less threatening. Poor Phantom! Quinn totally understand getting upset about being away from home and changing the routine so much...and I know about the thunderstorm fear. White Dog positive energy that you will have calm blue skies and not too much roofing disruption. Sibes in The No Sibe Zone make it a Sibe Zone, right? Momma said this is like a logic question in math.
ReplyDeleteOMG. PHANTOM! If you don't eat this very minute, I'm gonna come over there myself and feed you some Swiss ROSTI... OMG, i'd bet you'd like that! fried potatoes, eggs and some sort of greesy sausage. yuck. but just like a doggie likes it.
ReplyDeleteplease eat... please! and the thunder storms? phoey on them. they're just all bark and no bite.
Don't you all look so fluffy and pretty?? I would love to fun my fingers through all that soft fluffy fur! Sorry Phantom took the time from home so hard, we have our paws crossed that he is feeling better real soon.
ReplyDeleteWe're so glad you're home, guys and we love seeing your happy smiling faces. Feel better soon, Phantom!
ReplyDeleteLove ya lots
Maggie and Mitch
Phantom,
ReplyDeleteYou were very brave and now you are all safe at home! What a sweet sissy you have for fixing you some pasta!
I'm glad that you had fun away from home but I hope that Phantom starts feeling better soon. Those darn storms - what terrible timing. Being home with you will hopefully calm your boy down.
ReplyDeleteBTW, we are heading out of town for a while but can't announce it ahead of time on my blog. So, please don't worry when my site goes silent.
We're very glad that you are all home again and hopefully Phantom will start feeling much better soon! Very worrying for your Mom and the weather reports don't sound promising either.
ReplyDeleteWe'll keep our paws crossed for you.
take care
Clive and Murray
Hopefully being home will get Phantom's appetite back. Poor guy. We're glad that you are home and are praying that you stay safe from the storms.
ReplyDeleteWelcome home my furriends!
ReplyDeleteLotsa Licks
Casper Bear
We're glad to hear you're home. Feel better soon, Phantom!
ReplyDeleteThor and Jack
Poor Phantom! We feel for hime but just look at his smile, all of your smiles! We're so glad you;re all home!
ReplyDeleteWoofs,
Tommy
Glad to have you back home! You all look very nice with your groomings and I bet the Momster is gonna be happy when she can get the no-sibe zone reinstalled.
ReplyDeleteI hope the weather gets better, keep eating Phantom!
~lickies, Ludo
Paws crossed for Phantom. We think lots of time in the no-Sib zone will perk him right up. They all seem so happy there...
ReplyDeleteGosh, poor Phantom. I feel for him over the weather and being in a strange place. I've been known to be a super picky eater myself. I bet he had the vet peoples about to freak out. Ha.
ReplyDeleteKitty
Oh no, poor Phantom. We hope he starts to feel better soon now that he is home.
ReplyDeleteAlso, there should be no such thing as a no-Sibe zone, although I guess we have one room that is a no Sibe zone because it is Wilbur's room.
Steve
Poor Phantom! At least he's home now with the greater pack!!
ReplyDelete- Charlie
I is so happy that everypup is HOME! I sure hope that Phantom starts feeling better.
ReplyDeleteMom says that we hope that the tornados just pass your whole state by with out a look back!
woos, Tessa
My dear Phantom,
ReplyDeleteyou love to stay home... that is the only thing, isn't it?
I am like that.. when my humans leave me at my breeder's I eat the minimum possible... I am all bones when they are back...
I am afraid of tornados, stay all next to eachother, it will pass soon!
Good luck!!!
Ciao Lucille
Aww...sweet Phantom. Have you tried the Thundervest for him? Maybe that would help? I am hearing a lot of good things about it.
ReplyDeleteWELCOME HOME!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear about the trouble with the storms. There was just a post on Bunny's blog about Morgan and her thundershirt. Does that help Phantom at all?
Wags,
Zona
You certainly look soft and clean! I hope Phantom feels better soon - I will keep my paws crossed for him.
ReplyDeleteWelcome Home friends!! Hope Phantom will be better now that he's back in his domain!!
ReplyDeleteCheers!
Maxx
That Phantom is just so sensitive! You know, we swear by chicken liver brownies to get finicky dogs to eat. But, we've had one that was terrified of thunder too. That can really stress some of them out!
ReplyDeleteHope all gets back to normal ASAP!
Look at you guys! You look so clean and fluffy, but poor Phantom! Not eating is very upsetting to both your tummy and your mommy. I know I'm a really finicky eater too and my mommy hand feeds me just about every day or else I can go without eating for three days and then I start to upchuck yellow foam and that's yuky! But I'm a little ole, spoiled rotten guy. Hope you'll be feeling better real soon and hope you won't have to go through a Tornado - that is scary!
ReplyDeleteYour friend, Gizzy and his mommy.
Hugs to you all ;-)
Thunder, you need to find that appetite and stop worrying your pack mother. :)
ReplyDeleteLet's hope the weather breaks for you soon - you don't need the complication.
♥
Welcome home (though we certainly have our paws crossed for Phantom to suddenly decide that a buffet of food would be a perfect idea).
ReplyDeleteThe 3 of you look so happy to be home. We are so sorry Phantom still isn't eating right. I'm still terrified of thunder and lightingfrom when I was a little girl dodging traffic in that Thunderstorm. I know exactly how he feels. It hasn't rained here in forever so we could use the rain but not the thunder and nasty lightning.
ReplyDelete{{{huggies}}}....Mona & Weenie
Welcome home!!! We are thinking of Phantom and sending him hungry vibes...hopefully, you won't get the bad weather. Husky hugs!
ReplyDeleteWe are so glad you are happy to be home! YAY!! Poor Phantom...it is not nice at all to be scared when you're away from your home. LadyBug gets scared with thunder lately...this is something rather new...she didn't used to be bothered by it. You all look so nice and shiny and I bet you feel all spiffy now! Hope you all have some fun today!! xoxo Chloe and LadyBug
ReplyDeletewoo all look so floofy clean! but phantom i can send some of my cookies STAT! that should do the trick?!
ReplyDeletepawsitive vibes ,
tula
Ohh you poor thing. Home's the best place to be, I hate wind and storms and never eat away from home buts Phantom, that was such a long time to be silly.
ReplyDeleteGeesh! We haven't been bloggin either cause of company, but at least WE didn't get shipped out! We bet woo pups are hot-diggity-dog happy to be back to your home sweet home!
