Okay, I know....it's been forever since I was on here last. But I have had a rough time. I think the last time I posted was after Justin died. So really quick I'll try to update on everyone (in order by age),

Jewel--Still as mean as ever.

Blue--Is begining to have a really hard time moving around, and the cold weather we had this winter didn't help. But now that it is hot again, he is doing a lot better.

Mama Dog--Going strong.

Dixie Belle--Here is my problem child. She decided that she didn't like the food we were feeding her and quit eating. I'm talking she lost so much weight that you could count her ribs by looking at her. We tried several different things, and finally found that she will eat canned Alpo, and dry Co-op mixed together. After trying to starve herself for about a month, she is now putting on weight and looking good. No more ribs!!!

Beautiful--Been having a bad time with her too. Someone dumped a tom cat out and he was chasing her off and eating all of her food. We were finally able to catch him, only to have him get loose and run in the road. A truck hit him, and he didn't make it. I was really upset because I was going to try and find a home for him. It just sickens me the way people just throw animals away.

Otto--Still doing good.

I think that brings everyone up to date. Sorry it's been so long since I posted, but Belle really had us worried. Maybe I can get some more free time.

WAIT!!! I FORGOT PRINCE!!!

Prince--Is tring to be the big dog of the house, to bad he is the smallest pup in the pack. But he finally got old enough to be fixed and we just had that done two weeks ago.

Okay, now that's everyone!

Welcome home, Dixie Belle!

It sounds like things have been very eventful. Hope Prince, Blue, and Dixie Belle are all feeling well now. (Is Beautiful fine now that the 'visiting' Tom has RB'd?)

Dixie Belle, shame on you - worrying your Mama like that. You saintly babies aren't supposed to be greyhound skinny! Now you eat up good, or I'll have another saintly girl I know come steal all your biscuits!


Dixie Belle's mama - welcome back! Sorry you were having such a trying time, but we're here, and glad you are, too.

Welcome back, Dixie Belle! I am so sorry to hear about Beautiful. It's such a shame that any living creature is ever dumped. The poor thing :( At least you tried. Your other furkids sound great and it's great to have an update on them.

One new update since you last heard from me is that i have a new dog. Her name is Kersey and she's a labbie/GSD mix. She's lovely and I love her to pieces. Graham had a terrible accident last autumn, but I am not sure when you left. He jumped off my balcony and dislocated his ankle, and now he has a fused ankle joint, preventing his leg from bending, but he's doing pretty good.

Anyway, it's great to hear from you again. If you have any more pics I would love to see some new ones of your gang :)

Dixie Belle, We don't know you, or you us, so we thought we'd take a minute to introduce ourselves. I'm Anna, the proud owner of Angus the Rottweiler, and Roxey the Siberian Husky. We just wanted to give you a big "HELLO" and tell you we can't wait to hear more from you:D

It's uncanny how just when you start thinking about somebody hard.... you hear from them :eek: we haven't really talked before but you touched me. Maybe I should think more often :p Who knows who might show up, Phred... are you reading this :confused: :D Laurie
p.s. (don't mind me..I always think of something after I've sent the original) Dixie Belle... do take a look at the SouthEast meeting thread - what a treat it would be to have you join us - if we get it together :rolleyes:
