grass grazing

I pushed myself too hard physically this morning and made myself a bit ill, and Ziggy is the kindest of nursemaids.  She sticks very close positioning herself either at my feet on the rug, across the room on a chair to keep an eye on me, or beside me on the couch  WE've been in and out a lot with laundry and other tasks and I tripped once from the exhaustion and now she tries to block me from getting on the stairs altogether.  This is a dog who learns quickly.

She got quite upset with me last night for removing her collar.  I think it's probably good to do from time to time and I want to brush her and it's more effective wtihout collar, but she went bonkers and wouldn't stop jumping on and scratching me.  I held her down which I know is not the best way to handle things, but sometimes grabbing her by the scruff of the neck like a naughty pup is the easiest thing to do.  She now lets me do that, but nobody else.

She's sleeping hard and isn't eating and I'm a bit worried about her.  This morning she ate a lot of grass and vomited it up. She will play for a bit, but she's not upset about no walks. 

Poor baby.
