I can just imagine that strange look you got.....she was probably saying, "just what the heck are you doing back there?" Glad you got your sample!

All the pie at my house comes courtesy of Marie Callendar or Polly's Pies so you're safe. The pie tin in question is no longer with us.

well muttface (lola...that's her new nickname that is meant with the most love possible ) and i went to the vet today for her second round of shots. she now weighs 2.01 lbs! getting big, isn't she? lol! my sister's puppy weighed 2.5 lbs last saturday. for dogs these size that's a pretty big difference. :-) the vet felt her head a she still has her lil soft spot on there. lol. because she's so little it's taking awhile to close up, but that's normal she said.

also, i don't know if i've mentioned that she has a knot in her tail...it's always been there since i got her, and it doesn't hurt her because i've touched it. so i asked the vet about it and she said it was probably fractured at some point and it would probably always be there. i think it adds character.

Jbean how is the whining thing going? Is she calming down yet?

I had a cat a long time ago that was born with a crook in his tail. We called him Boomerang.

OG, lol!

eeyore, the whining has gotten so much better since she stayed with my sister for awhile last week while i traveled. since she's been home, she hasn't been whining at all at night...or if she has been it's been so quiet that i can't tell if it's her or if it's the cat meowing. one night i even slept for 10 hours. she's finally chilling out some! woo hoo!

Jbean! That is AWESOME that Lola has calmed down. I wonder if maybe she just wasn't feeling independent enough to have left her brothers & sisters when she came home with you the first time. Kind of like when you send a kid to camp too early. Some kids can go at 6 years old and be fine, some are a little more stuck to home and not ready to go, and just cry most of the time they are at the camp.

Are you thinking of taking her for visits more often to your sister's place? It seems like every visit helps! I'm glad you got to keep her after all of the trouble! Any dirty looks from neighbours in the past few weeks?

And what's with the lack of pictures!?!? All of you doggie lovers haven't been posting! AHEM!! VEE! AHEM!!

Sea, I saw that and laughed so hard, I almost cried. NEVER let me get THAT neurotic, PLEASE!!:-) Cami won't be getting any points for her shows on the 9th and 10th. She's the only Sussex entered! :-( We'd hope we'd have some competition from California, but it didn't happen.

Jbean, I'm soooooooooooo glad everything is working so well for you and Lola!!!! :-) Patience, it's all about patience and you're doing SUPER!!

just checking in, thanks for everyone's kind words, Oscar's tail is healing very nicely, I'll take him back for a last look and to take the stitches out if they don't dissolve on Friday.

I went to our first puppy class (sans puppy) it was very informative, I look forward to next week. Picked up a few tips that are already proving useful. Have a doggone wonderful day all.

It's been a rather hectic week in our doggy world around here and, as a result, Cami will not be at the show in Vegas next weekend. She 'will' be heading back to Indiana in August to show until right before Thanksgiving or if she gets her CH before that.

We had to fire our longtime groomer (she hurt Ollie...he's ok, but limping a bit more) who was going to be handling Cami during the show. Everything is working out, but it was a bit tense for a few days.

Luv, I LOVE the pic!!! She's adorable!

After a longer wait than I expected, I finally got the results of Chloe's last lab work. Our vet says that based on the urine test her liver function is good! Yippee!!!! We will do routine blood work annually, to keep an eye on her. But for now, it's all good. Thanks again for your good thoughts and prayers. I really appreciate it.

Wondering how Spy's Toby is doing.
Poor Ollie. Hope he feels better soon.
Princess Maggie looks very "regal".

I just received a new picture of Chloe's brother, Toby, that I thought I'd share. He's gone Hollywood on us.

Hello everyone from Oscar and myself! Cute pictures (Toby is giving that patented put upon look, lol.)Glad to hear Chloe is doing well.

Oscar's tail is healing nicely and he's up to about 42lbs. Our first puppy class together was Tuesday. He was a little timid in the puppy play time, just sniffed a few butts and came back to my feet. Poor guy seemed a little like a deer caught in the headlights. Hopefully he will be a little more sociable next week. He did pretty well with the instruction part though.

Jasper, thanks for the update! Sounds like things are going well and he'll get the hang of being around other people and dogs, soon.

Found out yesterday...we have THREE pregnant Sussex Spaniels in England!! WHOOHOO! Simon's in the bun warmer! Ollie's mom should be giving birth in just over three weeks and the other two girls should hatch in four. We're hoping Betty, Maggie's mom, will hold her pups and not absorb them. This has happened a couple of times before. We're pretty excited!! :-)

Good news Kstme. My mom's Cairn just had three puppies last week, she was very excited.

Oscar has no problem with the people, just other pups so far, just a little tentative, which in some ways is surprising considering he had three siblings and there was two cats and two other dogs in the household. He tried to make friends with a cat in the backyard the other day but it kept hissing at him so he gave up. I'm sure he'll warm up eventually.

when you say Simon's in the bun warmer, are you getting a male as well? (once there hatched, if you spoke about this before sorry, i must have missed it)

Yes, Jasper, we will have both a breeding b!tch and a stud male. Because of the changes we want to introduce to some of the American lines, this works the best for us and four other breeders who are very interested in our outcrossing and our new male. It is all pretty exciting! :-)

I feel Oscar is going to do just fine in time. They go through a lot of changes as they grow and need to be around other dogs to keep the inter-action going. You're doing great with him!!! :-)

Ever since I discovered that Spike had worms, I've become obsessed with poo.

I just had this developed and it's such a cool pic of Ollie with Mags in the background that I wanted to share.
