Well that was just about the hardest thing I’ve ever done.  How is it that an animal buries itself so deeply into your heart and soul.  He was my best buddy in the world.  Not seeing him waiting in th

Oliver left us last night. He waited until I got home from the field, brought him to bed, snuggled him, and tucked him in. Then he left. I could sense for the past 10 days that he was saying goodby

Had to say goodbye to one of my best friends of the last 14 years today. Her name was Avery. At 8 weeks old she was left tied up in front of my future father in law's vet clinic. Freshly out of c

The doofusness of dogs is maybe their most endearing trait.

 

Agreed.  I have had three dogs as adults (these are two of them, and of course Abby who I had for over 16 years), and it amazes me how different they all are in personality.  I will say though, both Rini and Harvey have adopted some of Abby's quirks, things she used to do that they never did, and now, they are doing them.

It looks like someone dropped their wig. 

I remember one time she was passed out on the floor and a friend saw her and didn't realize she was laying right in front of him. I mentioned something about her after we left and he says to me "I thought that was a mop in front of me on the floor. Had no idea it was your dog!" She is really quiet for a small dog.

i got the shirts 2 years ago on St Pattys at the UT baseball game, they were giving them out.   

 

I went for the smallest shirts possible, so they both are a childs small... which fits 63Lb Sadie just fine.... 43Lb Chloe.... not so much... she squated and pissed on it about 10 seconds after I took the pics.  Sadie had no issue wearing it the next 3 hours.

Phoebe had a bad day yesterday.
3 broken bones in her paw.

She and our older doofus were playing in the backyard and she just started screaming and came up holding her leg up.
Heartbreaking to hear.
Nice $700 emergency vet bill since our regular vet couldn’t work us in.
Ugh.

Sweet girl.  Sorry for the $$ hit but that is not a bad bill for such a high end treatment.  Hope she mends quickly.

So the problems Little Bitty was experiencing that I posted about earlier when we saw the vet this past March 5th have unfortunately returned. She rebounded from her vet visit for a bit and then began vomiting again. She in now in the hospital overnight until an ultrasound can be done to determine next steps or what is causing her issues. She’s 16 and a fighter and such a sweetheart. I cannot express what an important part of my life she truly is. If you pray she could use one. Or good thoughts or whatever you are comfortable with. Just talked to the vet again for the third time today. She called me tonite before her shift ended and sent me this picture.

Thanks all for the well wishes and thoughts and prayers. Today was a very sad day. Little Bitty passed away at 2:34 pm. They found a tumor in her small intestine that had caused a full blockage. I’m devastated. She’s in no more pain.

think of it this way, shes probably had the best 16 years she could have possibly had, and received as much as love as she possibly could (and given every bit of it back and more).  she fulfilled all of her duties to get into doggie heaven

Little Bitty’s greatest hits: Heart breaking because it doesn’t feel real. My favorite is the second from the last because even though she couldn’t see or hear well she loved watching the Vampire Diaries for some reason.
