Chewy Day…

Originally posted 2023-04-27 09:33:48. Your purchases help us take care of Chewy and everything that comes with this surgery. We knew his ACL was torn but not a full tear nor did we know anything about his meniscus tear. It is funny because if you recall my husband had a meniscus tear and they had to take out over half of his meniscus. Now Chewy had to have half of his meniscus taken out just…

Twelve to Twenty-Four

Originally posted 2023-01-29 10:30:39. I don’t know if I should chalk it up to stroke brain or just aging brain. Either way it is something my dogs will likely never forget.

Rude Awakening

Originally posted 2023-01-12 09:30:37. This morning we were abruptly woken up by the dogs fighting for some reason. Now, Max, our eldest dog is approximately 16 years old. At least that is what we have estimated it at. Our daughter found him in 2007 and they estimated his age at around 6 months then. James and I have been together (as of June of this year) 16 years. So we always go off our anniversary…
