Vet Visit

Odin went to the vet today because when I was cleaning his ears yesterday, the right ear was discolored on the inside. It isn't smelly, but it had extra wax, and he hasn't been shaking his head or pawing at it or anything. Regardless, he had a yeast infection. I brought Stampy with me a) for the experience, b) because I couldn't leave him at home alone with the contractor there, and c) to get his 3 years rabies shot (a few months early).
The vet tech said they were well behaved for big dogs.
The vet said that Odin was chubby. I looked horrified, because he said "only about 5 pounds or so" (after a while) and pointed out the places Odin was fat.
Odin might have weighed a little more than the weigh in with "O'Ryan" (123.6), today's weight - 127, I think, but that's because of his binge last night on Stampy's full bowl of food while Stampy was getting his bath and his Saturday eating a whole bag of wheat thins. (though maybe Stampy split them).
Mom and Dad are treating the boys to a couple days at Fido's Farm while the contractor is here which is a huge stress reliever for me because we have some deadlines at work.
