Sigh (of relief)


Things are finally quieting down after a hectic month. After my last post I had three of the puppies get deathly ill. It was a traumatic experience. I feel very fortunate and blessed that after many prayers, the puppies are all okay now. Nessa spent a week at the Vet and they thought they were going to lose her. After she had been there for almost five days Fiero got sick while I was in St. George. Debbie took him to the emergency vet and he tested positive for Parvo. What a scarey experience. I had heard horror stories about Parvo so of course I was paniced. Later that night Sweet Ashley got sick too. I can only assume that all three puppies had the same thing. My dear friend Shawna came over to help me nurse Ashley through most of the evening and even Karen came and stayed the night. Ashley needed fluids given by syringe every hour. After about a week and a half of worry they finally started getting better. I got little sleep those few days. But, I am happy to say that all of the puppies have good homes. Two of them are even in my neighborhood. I found a home for Ashley in the same way Lucy was found for me. I feel very grateful to Heavenly Father for taking care of their sweet little spirits, all the while taking care of me too. Fiero lives with us and he and Lucy have a great time playing. She still mothers him alot though. When I am trying to get him to go outside to potty, he often doesn't because it seems he doesn't like the outside. When I am encouraging him to go out, Lucy will grab him by the collar and drag him outside to pee. She is the best!!!!

My exciting life.

Though I may not have a lot going on in my life or love from a man, I have lots of love from my friends. They reminded me of that this afternoon. They were ready and willing to break into my blogspot page to make a more exciting blog for me. Though this is not anything near as nice as what they have done with their own pages it will have to do for now. Jennie and Karen...I changed my password. HEE HEE HEE!!
