The loss of a loved one


Today was a very sad day in my house today. Jeff woke me up, and told me that Morris was breathing funny. I went downstairs to check on him and his gums were very pale and he was taking shallow breaths. I put him in a crate and Jeff rushed him to the vet. Jeff called me in a few minutes to give me the bad news. Morris had died on the way to the vet. He was attacked a few weeks ago that almost killed him. He went through very invasive surgery and extensive treatment. He was doing so well, but he lost his battle today. He was such a sweet guy. he adopted us about a year and a half ago. Someone dumped him off here and took to us immediately. I love and cherish the time we got to have with him. I just wish it had not been cut so short. Please keep us in your prayers as we deal with his sudden death.

A New Doggy Addition To The Family


Some of you may not know how passionate I am about animals. If you do not know...then let me tell you...I am VERY passionate about them. Jeff and I work with a rescue group called Mostly Mutts. You can visit them at www.mostlymutts.org. Jeff does the website. Anyways, so Jeff and I started fostering the little black dog in the above pictures a few months ago. He had been hit by a car, and his pelvis was broken along with other injuries. After months of rehabilitating him we have decided to adopt him. He gets along well with our two older dogs Big and Dakota. This makes our 7th dog and our 13th animal. I know that some of you think that this is crazy or even gross to have this many animals. But these are my full time job, and Jeff and I work very hard at keeping the house and the animals clean. They are our family. We love each and every one of them. I will be posting blogs about my animals from time to time and I will add pictures to introduce them to you. What can i say? I love my babies!! Oh! By the way, the 13 are: 7 dogs, 1 cat, 1 sun conure parrot, and 4 guinea pigs!
