I was a stray at the Richardson Animal Shelter in April 2002, when FatBoy took me home to live with he and his small dogs (with the long tails) that purrrrrr. My real name is Dog # 469, but the Humans call me Beta. My full name appears to be "Beta the Wonder Dog". My birthday appears to be 15 October 2000. My IQ has been measured at 17, slightly more than an apple.

I passed my blood test - whoopie!
I overheard a message on FatBoy's answering machine, where Dr. Cold said everything looked normal except for something called a Thyroid Test, where I scored 0.9 instead of 1.0 or higher. That's close enough, right? Since they never let me attend school, I'm not sure ...

Woopie! I got to go visit my friend, Dr. Cold Stethoscope today.
FatBoy seemed concerned about my bad dream at 3:30 this morning. (okay, so I did "wet the bed" right afterward - my bad!). This seemed to spook FatBoy enough to take me to the vet. As soon as I got out of the car - I saw The Bug again and had to have a taste. And, just like last time, I started frothing like crazy out in the parking lot. Then, as soon as I got inside .. well, I don't remember what happened. FatBoy says I had a seizure right there in the waiting room, all legs extended & twitching and frothing badly (I don't remember any of this - he could be making it up).
Anyway, Dr. Cold took me in the back room and gave me a diazepam (Valium) and drew some blood and took an X-ray of my back left leg (it's been bothering me for a couple weeks, hence my hopping). He told FatBoy that I may have something called "epilepsy" but that's hard to diagnose. He also said that the results of my blood test will be back tomorrow. Gee, I sure hope I pass!

I waited until FatBoy left the house, then I uploaded a photo of one of the short dogs (that purr) onto this website: Scrooge yourself. I wonder if anyone will notice?
