Goldie Loo

We got bad news last week about our dear Goldie Loo. She has been dramatically loosing weight in the past 3 or 4 months. She has had cancer removed in the past and we were warned it would come back. Meanwhile she has fatty tumors and skin tags popping up all over her old body,it's like the poor girl has been cursed. Once she started loosing weight so fast Chuck & I knew something more than just old age was going on. So we took her to her vet last week who confirmed we we thought. She has cancer. Most likely in her lymph nodes and has spread to her stomach & lungs. For the past about 8 months she has had a tumor that comes up in the same spot on the outside of her mouth. It is so disgusting,stinks,bleeds oozes of nasty foul smelling stuff. Needless to say we have not encouraged anyone to come visit during these times as hard as I try to keep it clean it still has a horrible smell. This is most likely where the cancer has started. It went away(basically rotted) several weeks ago,was gone 2 days and came back quickly. Even if she were young & healthy enough for the surgery the tumor will keep coming back.

She don't seem to be in any major pain. The tumor makes it hard for her to eat so everything she eats is hand feed to her & she still has a good appetite. We are giving her 1 Ensure a day which she loves. She is still going to potty on her own,barks when the other dogs bark,wagging her tail and talking short walks with us which surprises us as skinny as she has gotten that she has still been able to do.

Goldie just turned 15 back in June. We know we are very fortunate to have had her this long and thankful for every day we have left with her. Goldie has been a great dog. She has always loved every dog she ever met. She still acts like a puppy but in a old dogs body. So we are spending as much time as we can with her while we can. My therapy has been looking at all the wonderful pictures I have taken of her over the years which I will post as soon as I can. 

I wanted to add more recent pictures of her but she just looks to bad.

This is one of my favorite puppy pictures.

Man oh man is it hot out there! Here in Arkansas we have had 100 plus temps going on 5 days. Thank goodness our humidity has been low. I always worry about people who have to work in this and of course how hard it is on the animals. I think when the temp get's this high it is harder on the animals then the winter.

 I hope everyone is staying cool and drinking lots of water. :)

Tiger Lilly Has Her Forever Home

After almost 4 months & so close to death more than once, Tiger Lilly has a FOREVER home.♥

And it's with US!

Many of you know poor Tiger girl has been sick so many times since the beginning when she came to us.  After almost 4 months we just can't stand the thought of putting her threw anymore trauma.  In the beginning we honestly thought she would never be able to be around other dogs & was not sure what would become of her but we know now she was only aggressive because of all the trauma she had gone threw, being so close to death and loosing the sight in one of her eyes. She now gets along great with our dogs. If any of them play a little ruff she cowers away but they are all learning to play perfectly with each other.

 My nephew came over yeasterday to attempt to take a few pictures of me & Tiger Lilly but as you see we had some "bloopers",lol. We triedd getting the other dogs in the picture with us but they were too concerned with sniffing around....and well sniffing each other too. ;)

Looking back now we are so very glad that someone was dumb enough to throw her away & so happy she found her way to us. Their loss is our huge gain! 

Pictures of Mariah.

Many of you know one of my favorite hobbies is photography which I love but seldom have time for. I recently took some for a sweet beauty Mariah who is not only beautiful on the outside but inside as well. Mariah is already enlisted in the National Guards. I'm so proud of her.
