A delicate problem. With tasteful photos.


Peggy had a slight itch. A problem near her unmentionables. In order to stop her doing the unmentionable to her unmentionables, she needed a special collar.  Unfortunately an ordinary cone collar made her giddy, fall over, and ( oh my, she would kill me if she knew I'd told you), lose control of her nether regions. Drastic measures were called for.   In true Blue Peter style, we made a collar from cardboard and sticky tape  but although quite nifty, it didn't do the job thoroughly enough.

So we tried the rubber ring collar. She took to it like a dream and would have been safe in any sinking ship scenario.

At night it was taken off  so she could sleep the sleep that only Peg can sleep. With lots of snorty snoring.

Her little problem  soon cleared up and her unmentionables are now problem free. But I won't show you a photo of that end. I'll show you this end instead.

And with her best pal who is frankly appalled that such problems should ever be mentioned in public.

LOL!!! :))) (Woops! Sorry Peggy, poor thing) Thanks for making me laugh Lane, you could say that it has been a wee bit shitty in the old work arena today ;-) Roll on retirement!

To stop her doing the unmentionable to her unmentionables....heheheh...poor Peggy!!

I'm glad she's all better now and I'm even more glad that you showed the head end!

Glad she's all better. And tell her, I won't tell a soul! ;)

Shirley Wells said...

Ha, ha, ha. Too funny. Glad she's better now!

Tell her from me she looks absolutely gorgeous with or without collar!

Dumdad said...

Peggy deserves a Blue Peter badge!

Chris Stovell said...

Never pleasant to have a never-mentioned problem with your nether regions! Very pleased to read that Peggy's local difficulty has been eased with a rubber ring. Mine was too after birth of first born. Except I didn't put it round my neck.

And so lovely to see Peggy having a snorty-snore!

Denise said...

Ah, poor Peggy! Gorgeous pictures. I had to apply cream to a similar region of one of my rabbits once, which obviously tasted so revolting she didn't go near it. Just as well, as I think she'd have happily eaten one of those rings!

Babaloo said...

Aww, poor Peggy! Glad to hear she's all better now, though.
And the picture of Peggy asleep in bed is the best ever!!! I just have to be careful Honey and Jack don't see that, they might get ideas...

Nora said...

Poor Peggy, having her nether regions discussed on the Internet. I'm glad she's all better now, though she did look adorable with that rubber ring around her neck. Poor little thing.

Faye said...

Poor Pegs! Having to live with the Can Do Girlz and submit to their contraptions when consistent snuffling of the nether regions would have solved the problem eventually. So glad she didn't pull out her mohawk in frustration. Not surprised that Teabag disapproves of this discussion. She still thinks proper ladies should ride side saddle, I'm sure.

Hurrah for rubber rings - sounds as if old Peg's got it licked :)

Amanda said...

Brilliant - so funny! Glad she's all OK now x

Troy said...

Bide your time Peggy - revenge is a dish best served cold!

Flowerpot said...

Dear girl - so pleased her nethers are better now! xx

Debs said...

Poor Peggy. I'm glad her recent problems with her unmentionables is now sorted.

Still, according to her photos, she's kept a dignified air about her, although Teabag looks suitably shocked by the entire situation.

sonia said...

her best pal does look disappointed in you for sharing. how do you cope with that look. Fab pictures- so funny.

Marcheline said...

Somebody tell SpiralSkies that that was what you were trying to AVOID...


8-P

Crystal Jigsaw said...

Excellent post!! I must say, she looks rather shy in that last photo!

Tom Foolery - Sorry to hear that. At least you haven't had Peg's problem. I hope:-)

Carol - to have shown the other end would have been plain cruel:-)

Nik - good. I'm sure Peg can count on your discretion:-)

Shirley - she does look rather gorgeous doesn't she. However when she was doing the unmentionable...:-)

Dumdad - Yes she does. Although it may have deflated her collar:-)

Chris S - ah the Rubber Ring. Yes, I seem to remember it was very handy then too:-)

Denise - If only Peg had been as discerning as your bunny about the cream!

Babaloo - If Jack and Honey did that, I doubt there would be much room left. Perhaps if they had their very own bed ...?:-)

Nora - I know, it was mean of me to air her problem so publicly. But I couldn't resist:-)

Faye - Teas is most certainly very old fashioned. I think was some aristocrat's lap dog in a former life:-)

Spiral - ha. Well she certainly did! Thank goodness for those rings:-)

Amanda - Thank you. And Peg thanks you too. (or she would do if she knew I'd written this)

Troy - cripes. You've got me worried now. I'll have to keep my eye on her:-)

Flowerpot - Yes. Happy nethers, happy dog. And owner too:-)

Debs - I think Teabag's default face is 'suitably shocked' where Peg is concerned:-)

Sonia - I know. She almost made me feel guilty. Almost:-)

Marcheline - ah but Peg had wearingthe collar licked. Thank goodness:-)

Crystal - she does look a bit shy doesn't she. Or bored that the camera is pointed at her - again:-)

Exmoorjane - not stupid you. I forget all the time to drop by my own blog and other people's. Nice to see you again m'dear.

Karen said...

Gorgeous pictures. I'm glad the unmentionables are mentionable again :o) I expect her best pal is hoping it's not catching.

Lane said...

Karen -Even though the unmentionable are mentionable again, we tend not to mention them if at all possible. Teabag prefers it that way:-)

Oh those sweet faces - I wish Pop got on with the squishy squashy collar, but unfortunately she was still able to reach the paws and gnaw gnaw gnaw away.

Glad Peg's problems have gone away - I love the caption on the 'not on the internet' photo. As if you would!
