CONFESSIONS OF A CONEHEAD!

Finishing my conehead imprisonment after my newtering. I don’t feel new?

Tomorrow at high noon, like in some Western film my cone will be removed!

Yippee!!

I was about to say imagine if you had a cone on your head like me! But you are human so how could you understand.

With a cone I had trouble reaching both food and water bowl. I had to be hand fed my kibble and a small bowl of water had to be lifted to my snout in my cone to quench my thirst. I lost my feeding independence. Too much mushed kibble sticks to my snout.

I kept bumping into everything.

It’s beginning to smell mighty bad even when the cone is cleaned with wipes.

I couldn’t puppy fight for fear my cone would hurt my playmate let alone bust a stitch.

But I loved scooping up the snow in it or my stuffies and flip them into the air. Given Toronto’s dismal job in snow removal I could have been a snow plow with that cone.

Yeah it is all for my own good. Isn’t puppyhood full of contradictions? Good riddance cone.
