A Special Report
on Graham Rabbit Riggins McGrey
starring Sophie Brador

Here's Graham

hogging the new honking pig and sheep.



I did get some alone time with the sheep.


Here's an excellent close up of me.


Here's Graham with the honking pig.



He was pretty happy when we got back from the vet this morning, because it seems like the diagnosis of Primary Brain Disease that some stinky vet gave us a few nights ago was jumping the gun just a little.


What?
you ask.


Well, far be it for me to say that Graham's brain is, um, a good one (he is no where near as smart as me), but apparently, I am not allowed to make jokes about this anymore.
But really, look at how small his head is!



It is true that Graham may have some neurological issues, but it could be anything and right now we just don't know. What seems probable is that his teeny little brain is making him all wobbly.



Wobbly like a Weeble that wobbles, except that unlike a Weeble, he actually fell down -- the stairs -- four times. Poor dude. Even I felt bad for him, because holy doodle dogs, that had to hurt!

THEN
A vet who is not our regular vet scared the sheeeeeeeeit out of us the other day. Literally. My IBS acted up and I was in one of those dire rear situations, and Graham started pooping all over the house. It was bad, and stiiiiiiiiinky. Woo.


SO
This morning, we went to our regular vet, who is a really smart guy and figured out pretty quickly that Graham has a herniated disc, which is definitely causing some of those wobbles. He's on some meds and rest, and his bloods are being done, and once he feels better from all that, we will investigate the neurological stuff. He might actually have Wobbly Syndrome ... or something like that. Really. It's a thing.

We're kind of hoping he doesn't and that fixing that herniated disc fixes everything.

Paws Crossed!

The Adventures of Sophie Brador


and her brother Graham Rabbit Riggins McGrey

___


Last Sunday was a beautiful fall day, so I bundled the beasts into the car and drove them up to the summit of Mount Royal for a walk.

The summit is a fabulous, wooded off-leash area where all dogs are free to run.


All except Graham Rabbit that is.

Being a Greyhound, he's a wee bit inclined to running away at the speed of light,

so he has to contend with being tethered to me


while the blond one romps.

Even this Irish Wolf Hound got to run free,

as did his owner with the nice camera hanging off his back


Now you may be thinking to yourself that some of these photos are not very good.



NONSENSE

This is art!

Sure, it might be better art with a camera like the Wolf Hound's owner had,


but I seem to be incapable of remembering to take a camera with me anymore.

These photos are all made with my iPhone.

Not the best ad for iPhone,

but fortunately, the beautiful Sophie Brador always looks good, no matter the technology.

Looking back on the day, Sophie thinks it was a marvelous adventure, even though she didn't attack anyone.

This is Sophie's Blog

This is Joey looking super handsome, thinking about Sophie

(despite whatever else he might have told you he was thinking).

This is Sophie, knowing it.

Almost Wordless Wednesday

Sophie insists she had nothing to do with this, but she was comfortable enough with the arrangement to have a good, sustained snore-fest.

(just imagine how many hits this page is going to get)

and
Graham in his Duds

Sophie thinks Graham looks like a total dork and I kind of have to agree. At least when in comes to the pyjamas, which are a bit much. But that rain slicker looks dapper. He is one natty dresser.

Sophie's 500th Post

and she's decided to share with you how much her life has changed.


No, she isn't losing her vision.

But some days she wish she was.


Sophie has had to make room in her life, and house, for her brother.

Graham doesn't actually get on her nerves at all,

and she even secretly likes him.

But she doesn't want to admit it and tarnish her tuffie-girl exterior.

Graham is a little pink in this video. Sophie would like you to believe he is always that colour, but it's simply not true.

Also, please turn down the volume so as not to hear my voice.
