They came and took him! What do I do now? *UPDATE PAGE 5!*

Mom talked to Charles this morning and Stephanie is back. (Figured she would be) As far as I know we are still picking Nathan up Saturday (and this time he's staying for a whole week) Mom could hear Stephanie in the background saying "Nathan, tell her that you have a lot more fun over here." What baby (or any person for that matter) would have "a lot more fun" with a self-centered, selfish, angry, violent, always screaming person? She was just trying to get to us and make us think Nathan doesn't like it over here. Right. I guess that's why his face lit up when he saw his room and all his zillions of toys (according to what mom has seen he only a handful over there and Nathan gets bored with the same toys really easily, which is why he has so many here)
She reminds me more of a 10 year old than a 20 year old and I think I will just ignore her. She just wants attention and will do anything to get it. Which is probably another reason she wanted Nathan. Babies get you attention.

Anyway, a woman from Adult Protective Services came out today to get the story from mom again. She informed us she was a cat person when our kitten Maggie immediately caught her eye. And we informed her that Maggie was a person cat. So Maggie was in Heaven. She got to sit in the woman's lap for about 20-25 minutes and get extra pampering. It was weird because the dogs didn't bark very much at her (usually they go crazy when someone they don't know drives up.) Even Lacy quieted down after a few minutes (which is odd because Lacy barks and barks and barks and barks) I guess she was an okay person. I usually rely on my dogs to tell me if people are okay or not. I know to some people that would sound funny but I'm sure some of you on here understand what I mean.

Well, good luck with everything.

Totally understand... and if you say your pets say this was an okay person, then trust them.

Before King was my dog i took my friends over to meet them. If they didn't go over there i'd observe his reaction to them anyhow (if he wasn't chained up at the time. *sigh* Yes, they chained a dog in a fully fenced yard.) I paid particular attention if i was dating someone... and was a little more persistent that they meet him close up. (he he... S.o. was a bit frightened of King, but he still listened to me and got involved. In S.O.'s defense King did have a rather deep bark when he wanted attention. It still warms my heart thinking about that. After that first week, every time S.O. came over he'd stop to pet King first.) It was rare that King ever bared his teeth or raised his hair at anyone. I can count the number of times on one hand. Each time we were in a situation where either i'm sure he saved us from danger or it was someone i knew and was a very bad person... and King could sense it despite my cordial mood.

To give you a smile, your dogs' reaction to the woman from CPS is a good sign. There's a woman way down the end of our street who has only lived there for about a year (and the house is on the market - she bought an old housed and fixed it up). We've never met, but I know her and her dogs by sight - she's a small Asian woman with short, permed blonde hair, and she's got a yorkie I've seen her walking many times, and a gorgeous red pittie - looks like a picture-book pittie - that sometimes hangs out on a long lead in the yard. I drove by one day and saw an unfamiliar man in the yard, but instantly noticed the pittie's tail was wagging a mile a minute - in fact most of the back half of the dog was wagging, so I figured the guy must be okay!

Well he's here again until next Saturday
But when we got him he had these horrible bumps all over him especially on his back (pics attached) We have no clue what they are. His back is the worst but he also has them on his neck and arms and a little on his tummy.


But other than that he was SO happy to see us. He kept reaching his arms out for each one of us and when Stephanie tried to hold him again he wouldn't go to her. She gave us a list of instructions for his day. Did she forget who raised him most of his life? We ended up trashing them. She is a control freak. She likes to control everything around her. She never once asked what his schedule was here. She didn't care if she screwed up his structured, safe life. She just wanted to have control over him. She's a sad excuse of a mother.

Does anyone know what the bumps could be?

With NO mention of the marks or how they got there by his "mother"???


I'd have had him in the ER so fast his little head would still be spinning!

SOMEBODY with medical knowledge needs to see those - and QUICKLY enough
that YOU CAN'T be blamed for inflicting them.

Get a diagnosis of WHAT they are; then go from there.



**EDITED to correct "you can" to "YOU CAN'T" be blamed.

Oh, I agree. Get the baby seen by a Doctor.

[Grace]

Didn't he have bumps on his back last week, also?

ABSOLUTELY - take him to the ER or Urgent Care. Get this documented by a professional ASAP. Take the pictures with you.
