Sending many healing thoughts! Take care of yourself!
Thx one and all.
I'd like to add one thing I purposely omitted before.
Yes. it was 2 of the 3 Rotties that attacked me. Coco was always the barker and the one by the fence all the time and the one the owner smacked on the butt, Her mom, Sheba, the sweetest, tho outside, did not go under the fence. But, baby daughter, Angel, who's rarely out and also very sweet, followed her sister and therefore must also eventually pay the price, :(
Please note I do not in any way consider this an 'awful' breed issue. I didn't want to start any problems or arguments. People who know me are shocked at the incident since I am the world's most avid dog lover, period. I've been around Rotties, Pits..all those 'Dangerous' breeds. I've been drenched in kisses by them.
They happened to be Rotties. They could have been any other breed. I put full blame on the owner. Remember I was dog sitting a baby pit. So. please, do not think I'm mad at the Rotties. People have a tendency to react to this story in horror, more than if I had said 'Poodles' ..sorry Pam... :rolleyes:
All blame on the owner. He knew the back fence wasn't stable and did a makeshift fix up job.
Fingers all wrinkly like I'm 90. Less swollen. In constant wiggle..people think I'm waving at them. Sure is a conversation starter. The 'Boys' are still treating me like a queen-which of course I deserve ;)
Terrible moments of temptation but still NO ciggies. Saved $35 already. Puffing on the inhaler-it's pretty good. Go thru 1 a day. Normal is 4-5 for a pack a day smoker..so I'm determined. No weight gain yet. Thx for your loving encouragement. You're the best friends ever!
I'm glad to here your hands at least getting a little better. I can't even imagine how difficult it must be for you. Congrats on the ciggies, going through all this and giving those up is amazing. Prayers to you for a speedy recovery.
Of course you deserved to be treated like a queen!
I can sympathize. When Logan bit me, anytime I explained what happened, the persons first response would be, "So are you going to have the cat put down?" or "Do you hate cats now?"
People that are not animal lovers just don't understand.... :(
*HUGS*
I hate when people say that.Quote:

I'm fine if a dog runs up to me quite as its more the snarling & barking that scares me.
Aw Karen, you admire you so much for how you are handling this!!! You are the best! Thank you so much for keeping us all update!!
I am including you in my daily prayers!!!
Hey Karen, it's so good to hear from you! :) Glad to hear you're doing good. And how awesome that you've quit smoking!!! Good for you!
Oh Karen... I know many others have said this before me.. but you are my hero! I wish you the speediest recovery and I wish you all the luck in the world with the no smoking!
Keep moving those fingers!! ;)
Aw, Karen, thanks for updating us. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...lies/Hugs2.gif Prayers and good thoughts continuing.
I was wondering what kind of dogs they were Karen, so sad they have to pay the price for their owners mistake.
YIPPEE for no ciggies!!! You go girl:D
Still sending healing thoughts your way!
Wow, no cigs! You are AWESOME! Protecting that puppy and putting yourself at risk, not smoking and typing with one hand means you are a hero to me, girl!! Hang in there, Karen. I'm sending tons of positive thoughts your way and wiggling my fingers right back at ya;)

Sorry for not checking in sooner. I hope you're doing a little better by now. Congrats on the not smoking thing! I wish you much success with that as I know it's hard to quit. May you continue to get better and I'm so glad that you're being taken care of so well. I'll check back in with you this weekend. Got to work tonight and sleep tomorrow. Glad to hear from you, friend! Duke sends his love and kisses to his girl, Klo.
