Hi Everyone, Rocky Dodge here. I guess the aches and pains come with being a Rock Star. The doctor visit went ok at the Hope Center in Vienna Virgina. (I thought it was a gooood sign that the name of the place is "Hope" - since Mati's middle name is Hope too)! First a nice person 'Laura' helped check me out. She was nice. Then, the Doctor came in. She was a nice doctor who said she had GSD's at home. And she had a unique accent - that oddly enough made me feel at ease. Hmmm, I wonder what das accent was? Well, anywho, she was a really nice Doctor and Dad liked her too. This Wed night we have a 3rd appointment with yet another specialist. We still have to keep our paws crossed.
Oh, and Thank you to everyone for their kind thoughts and posts from last week.
Dad took this picture of me a few minutes ago. He needed help painting so I was standing by - ready to serve.
Then Dad noticed something interesting. Since my hips hurt, Dad has been feeding me on the floor - I lay down and he puts the bowl between my front paws. And Mati eats right along side. But here are the results:
Here's My Dish:
And here is Mati's Dish:
Dad starting to mix in his food with "our" food. I wonder if he ever tasted "our" food? I don't have to wonder why Mati won't eat "our" food. She takes out most pieces and licks off the good stuff and leaves the rest behind. I only eat it because Dad asks me to finish eating... otherwise, I would leave some behind in the bowl too.
Then Dad went into the room he was getting ready to paint - and asked Mati to go finish eating. This is what she said to him:
She wouldn't budge. Well, except for sticking her tongue out at Dad.

Hi Guys,
Hope treatment goes well. We worry about your aches and pains. Mati seems to be a bit of a fussy eater. There is never anything in our bowls after dinner and if there was mum would be taking us to the vet! We love human food, dog food, cat food, turtle food in fact any food! We have given you an award, come over and check it out.

Tanner would love to eat at your house, he'd eat every last piece you left behind.
Mati's picture is priceless! HaROO!!! Your picture is very handsome, Rock. Our new foster, Cheyenne is lookin for a boyfriend......
oh..izit mati started to lost his temper...
What beautiful photos of two of my favourite pals. Mati has such a cute little tongue. Even if she is picky about the food. Me I eat everything - but I do expect them to share their food with me.
You look after your poorly bones and make sure you always lie somewhere nice and warm.

Pippa! I love Pippa Dog! Rocky says HaRooo too! I have to keep Dad on his toes when it comes to eating. Maybe some toast with Jam? I should be so lucky :-( Have some toast for me! Love and Kisses Mati
Amber! You sweetheart! Dad just talks and talks about the A04 and sweet Amber. I listen, and then I give kisses. Especially the other night when Dad and I were curled up on the sofa together. We watched 8 Below. Dad cried more than me! But we Roooo'd with them and supported them thru the tv. Thanks again, Love Mati obo Rocky and Dad! Give Mom and Dad kisses for us tooo!
Sophie you cutie! Thanks for the good words. Rocky is feeling tired right now. He left for the vet at 5:15 and didn't get back until 8:30! I'll say hello to him for you, he has nodded off. Love Mati
