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

Well we have been looking to foster but a friend found this little guy in her apartment complex looking rough, she already has 2 dogs and can't handle another dog. Got to hang out with him today and we are going to get him on Friday.

My little Walmart greeter, Bonnie needs your good thoughts and vibes headed her way. She has a mass on her spleen and they are going to do a splenectomy tomorrow. I booked it fast since it is bad if these things rupture. If all goes well, they will remove it and it will be benign and that cures her of this thing forever. If it is malignant then 6 months at best. She is the sunshinest little thing with her helicopter tail wag and insisting you pet her for your own good. 

I hope the best for you, my sweet puppy girl. I want nothing more than to bring you home and feed you all your favorites and fatten you up. Please, may it be so.

Four days ago Sebastian snatched one of my daughter’s socks when I dropped it on the floor doing laundry.  When I tried to grab it back he swallowed it.  Yesterday doing poop patrol in the back yard I found a really long turd with a purple tint.  I squirted it with a water hose and it turned out to be her sock rolled up like a hotdog and covered in dog shit. I rinsed it off real good and dropped it in the washer with its mate. Both are back in her sock drawer now.  When I see her wearing them I’ll tell her the story.

Bonnie is home and recovering. They gave me pain meds and antibiotics to give to her. She pooped this morning and that made me very happy. I was clapping and "Good Girling" her about poop because this is where we are at now. Fuck you, Cancer. The vet who did the surgery was a blunt fellow and even though the pathology test hasn't come back yet, he is sure it's malignant. He saw other clots when he took the spleen out that were not in the spleen and too dangerous to remove. Before the surgery, she was her Bonnie self, just a bit skinnier. I just want a chance to get her back to that, please let me have that time.

Her message to the world has always been love and friendship. She is just the kindest thing.  When Tiny Clyde pulls on her ears some mornings to get her to play, she either does when she is in the mood or she comes over to me and sits near me so I can save her. She never bites his mean little dick ass. I tell her, "don't let him get away with that, sic 'em!" and she just looks up with her sweet face and lays down.  My girl is a lover not a fighter.

The best dog that I’ve ever had was a stray.  Good on you for taking Benson in and giving him a good home.  He will bring you so much joy.

Haha my gf said the same thing. He is probably just being a spoiled fucker. Back to normal today though. Vet called and said all blood work came back alright for the most part but he is slightly anemic probably due to malnourishment. 

Nothing a double meat, double cheese Whataburger won't fix.

This will be a tale passed on for generations

well, we are all settled/moved into our new home...and i'm ready for a new dog. i lost Maggie in April, this is the longest we've gone without a dog in 25 years...

guys, i really really want a miniature dachshund of my own, and i'm not sure what to do about it. cost is not the issue.

we had four rescues, big dogs, prior to her, and i loved them all, each was the best dog in their own way. 

but my mom had two miniatures, Greta when i was in high school, then Maggie later on...and i absolutely adored them both. such great personalities, smart, lovable...i mean our other dogs were too...but there's a special place in my heart for the little doxies! 

we don't have a full yard, just a small fenced patio (it does have grass), so i feel like a small dog is the way to go. but there is a giant park across the street, so technically that wouldn't be a huge issue. 

i dunno...i mean it's going to be a 'fight' of sorts b/c my husband hates 'little dogs' and keeps saying we need to just rescue another...and i have no issue with rescues, like i said we had four and they were outstanding...but i've just been thinking/wishing/wanting a little doxie of my own since i took in Maggie. and i keep thinking 'well, those dogs need homes too!'

i dunno...somebody talk me into or out of this, b/c i'm gonna have to fight for it.
