The dog who swallowed a basketball

Once upon a time there was a funny looking dog named Lucy. She was low to the ground and a meter long, and had reddish-golden-brown fur. She was very unique in appearance.

But she decided to do something to make herself even more noticeable, so she swallowed a basketball. And there she was - a skinny front end, a skinny back end, and a basketball in the middle.

At least, that's what I think happened. Because there's no pups coming out of there, and if the belly gets any bigger it will go POP.

Her appetite is still - ahem - VERY healthy, her temperature is stable, and she shows no signs of impending birth.

Except for that basketball in her belly.

Have you thought of bouncing her around a bit, to see if THAT would encourage those puppies to make an appearance?

Awwww Lucy, I apologize. I know all about the struggles of being a single mama with no support and being a plus size, so I should know better than to make fun of you. Perhaps we can go dancing tonight? Or a quick game of one-on-one? You can be the ball.......Oooops, another basketball joke.

(And whomever taught Lucy to use the keyboard......could you please come clean the coffee out of my computer??? Toooo funny!).
