    Oh Pet Talk, what have I gotten myself into?

    As some of you may know, I work at an animal hospital. In March we had a patient that got attacked very badly by the other dog in the home. It happened again last month and they ended up surrendering him to us.

    Well, meet Ace...


    He is a six year old Basenji mix, around 35 pounds or so (needs to lose a few!) I have fallen for him. And the feeling is mutual. It's very apparent that I am his favorite person. He's generally unamused by anyone or anything until I step in and he's full of spunk and personality. It's been killing me to leave him there every night when I left work.

    The only thing that's been holding me back is Mufasa. He can be a jerk to other dogs. Well, Ace and Mufasa met today... they are in love.

    So, it's not official or anything, but he may just be another Muttlie!

    His ears stick up when he's really excited!


    ~Kay, Athena, Ace, Kiara, Mufasa, & Alice!

    Love with all your hearts and never forget
    How good it feels to be alive
    And strive for your desire"

    What a smile! Um, congratulations, Ace! (I couldn't have resisted that face, either Kay!)

    As much as we pick our pets, it's funny how they also pick us .

    Congrats on the new addition .

    Hey, when its meant to be...........its meant to be. Theres not much you can do about it.
    He is adorable and I was so happy to hear Mufasa got along with him.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!
