It's never a good sign when...

Our dogs spend their time in their kennels when we're sleeping or gone. So it's never a good sign when one of the dogs meets you at the door when you come home. The first time this happened it was very confusing, but it didn't take long for us to figure out that Steve had gotten sick. Being that he doesn't want to spend time in his disgusting 'sickness' he somehow manages to collapse his cage and get out, therefore spreading the 'joy' throughout the house.

Well, last night we came home to Steve greeting us at the door.This was the third time this has happened and we immediately knew what the problem was, before the stench even hit us. Although it's horrible to clean up, we can't be mad at Steve, because he just looks so miserable and we know it's not his fault. Last night was no exception.

Even Nick knew that the big dog was sick. He didn't hump him, bite his neck until he bit back or taunt him with any toys. He just layed calmly nearby and didn't even fight for the attention too much when Aaron was cuddling with Steve. Luckily he seems to be feeling better this morning. Time will tell...
