The good thing for today is that we could finally stretch the tramadol to every 8 hours without appearing to affect how Winston feels. This is great for me since now I don't have to get up to give him pills between 10pm and 6am. The bad thing for today is that Winston is REALLY bored, no matter what I've done to entertain him. He's tired of being in his pen and he wants to walk. He doesn't care about any of the toys, and even the tennis ball (usually a favorite because he squeezes them until they burst in half) only held his interest for a few minutes at a time. He's been very whiny and has kind of an attitude. He's even been pushing at the pen with his nose. Mastiffs do this short sharp poke with their nose if they think you're not moving along fast enough ("get going" is what they're saying). He's doing it to the pen today, "Take this thing down and let me upstairs."
Josie is even bored today and has been whining at the door. I'm going to change into some warmer clothes and we'll see if we can sneak out and take a short walk. That only helps her, and not Winston. :(
