Sadly, it looks like our other dog is going to have to be put down. [e digicons]X([/e]
Oh no, that is so sad after losing Spanky not so long ago. You have my sympathies, Jim, that's gotta be real tough on you.
On a brighter note, I just became the parent of a 3 week old pup named Buddy. He is one of the 3 that Angel and Dazza made together, and a real cutie to go with it. He was first born and runt of the litter, so he needed that little extra attention and I became attached to him while ensuring he got fed and etc. At first the mother was just going to abandon him, so I made sure she fed and cared for him. Now at 3 weeks he is thriving and growing well, though he's still smaller than his brother and sister. Anyway, I've not had a pet to call my own for a while so I decided to keep him.
I like Buddy the most out of the three pups, and I think the feelings are mutual. Whenever I go in to check on them he shimmies toward me and whimpers until I pick him up for a cuddle. Once in my hands he nestles in to get comfortable and is quite happy until I put him back the bed with his mother again Yup, I think Buddy and I are going to be great companions... and hopefully you'll eventually meet a lovable bowdler who'll melt your heart and make you wanna take it home.
Bowdler? Yup, dogs go bow wow.... and a creature who make such a noise is obviously a 'bowdler'. [e digicons]:grin:[/e]
