Izzie's birthday present(s) finally arrived. She'll have one more on the way soon but it's a functional present so that's like getting underwear for your birthday which is kinda a downer gift, though it might be considered like super sexy underwear since it is pink and exotic.
ANYWAYS
As you can see she got 8 million toys. Well only 12 toys, but i thought i might have actually ordered 72 toys which would've been excessive. They're cheapo latex squeaky toys and anyone that knows me, knows i don't do cheap. It's a curse really, i have expensive tastes. However these toys, specifically the blue fish with big red lips (who the hell thought of these toys? They're so weird looking) has a lot of significance to me and Izzie.
FLASHBACK!
*Insert Wayne's World Flashback Imitation Here*
When Izzie was just a 6 month old pup she had her eye clawed by a vicious devil cat named Jersey. She had to have extensive eye surgery with a super strict long recovery period so she didn't really get to enjoy her puppy hood from 6 months to 1 year old a whole bunch. It was unfortunate really. The blue kissy fish was her favourite toy though and it was non fuzzy so safe enough for her to play with for a little while anyways, too much activity could have affected the eye healing due to pressure. Anyways, one day i found it in shambles. One of the other Pugs was terrible and devoured the poor fishy. Izzie was heart broken and i couldn't find a replacement.
Until recently...
I was chatting with my friends one night about what to get Izzie for her birthday and referenced the puppy picture of Izzie with her fish and said "Hey i should find one like that!" and i did. I was so happy to find her favourite puppy hood toy and ordered 12 because they were assorted and i figured ordering 12 would at least get me a couple of blue fish.
Izzie loves the new toys though, all of them but especially the blue fish. It's still by far her favourite and she recognized it immediately and because playing like a little puppy again! It was so cute! I'm glad she likes her presents.

Nom the Fishy!, originally uploaded by mandypug.
That is the most awesome story! I have to say that those toys look awesome too! I'm so glad Izzie (and her eye) is ok after that nasty cat ordeal. I had a run-in with a cat about the same age, but he just scratched my tummy real bad. The nerve! Here's to many fun filled days playing with the red-lipped blue fish!
