Our dog and the flu

We got our dog and the flu yesterday. Apparently we brought a stomach bug back from Kansas. Yuck. It sure has made the adjustment to the dog more difficult. She really wants to go outside and eat the chickens and cats. I have very little energy today as I spent most of it being really sick last night. She is strong and jerks me around quite well when she hits the end of her leash. She pulled my youngest off his feel once already. She pulled out of her harness and took off after the chicken. It was smart enough to flap, fly and fuss into the barn where it lost Snickers. Snickers is a good natured girl. As I was throwing up last night she would nose into the bathroom to check on me. She is a golden lab with sad brown eyes that she uses in much the same way my kids use their sweet eyes. Well that is about all for now. When I get enough energy I will post some pictures of Snickers and the boys.
