Pets are good therapy

ohh, Ginger,   since chemo; with thyroid problems, my hair hasn't come back..his will.....

   i also have trimmed my dogs before they were yorkies, and ya know what? it grows back!!!! its' better to start short, even it out, and then when it grows, it'll be gorgeous, AND managable!!!$100.00 is So much to pay for a cut on a dog!!! keep him washed, smelling foofy, and he'll be cute as it grows back!!!! chin up girl.....3jays

Llamas and Alpacas are coming over to mow my little pasture for me. If we get along some may stay as foster friends. I think this is so amazingly cool!!!!!! Remember I am a city girl who had pet "everythings" in a little city house. I am really excited about this!

Also I just found out my poodle puppy will be coming home in a couple days, maybe Saturday or even tomorrow. I have waited for this puppy for a long time. I am still working on a name. I want a happy but not dumb sounding name like Dumbo.  I think Zeus would be a cool dogs name but not for a red standard poodle. Our Grandaughters name is Zoe and our daughter asked me not to name him Elmo, so I won't although it was tempting.   I have considered Zollie or Rollie. I have cats named Rudy and Daisy plus a dog named Harry. This will be a big dog. Ideas are welcome. 

Harry is looking happy in his new haircut already. I am also feeling better about it myself. Thanks everybody. 

Love Ginger

Ginger - How about a french name for the puppy  .  You could Google french first names for boys.

edited to add - We have a Shitzu named YOYO s in Yoyo Ma.  In Chinese yo means friend and the ddoubleing of the name means most honored and beloved of that name.

We are going to pick up the puppy tomorrow, Saturday, at noon. I have a vet appointment for him at 2PM. just as a precaution.

His name is still undetermined. I imagine it will come tomorrow. 

We have the small crate out so he has his own home to retreat to. One of the puppy/baby gates is up, we need to put up one more.  I have explained to Harry that he has a brother coming home. Harry said, "My life is perfect, do not tamper with this perfection." I hope he enjoys his new friend who will out grow him with in this next month. 

 I will get some photos and put them up. 

 What was the name of the mythical Nordic God? The one with the red hair? Hm

I think I have it! Stewart, Stewie for short.

congrats on the puppy & have fun finding the perfect name.  it will reveal itself.

my diep went well & came home this afternoon.  the buckmeister didn't fare so well with me gone.  drove poor dh nuts.  on the way home he told me about all the bell ringing, the letting out only to have the buckster park himself in the middle of the yard at 2:00 in the morning, sniffing, and pondering as only a frantic papillon can do. then he would go in his crate & 'sleep' for  a bit, then up on the bed between dh legs, until dh moved or breathed or thought about moving, then 'whoose' back to ringing the bloody bell.  pretty soon i was begging him to stop his narrative as it was making me laugh-ouch-laugh-ouch

The buckmeister wanted his mom home, he really led your DH on a very lively chase, I was laughing reding your description of his doings. Take care, Karen

My puppy Stewie has been here since Saturday. He is 9 weeks old now and is an adorable big red puff ball. Today he figured out how to unplug lamps. He also stole a long squeeky dog toy snake away from our 4 year old dog. He taught us more about all the things we need to put up, now. He is a busy boy after being very mellow the first two days. He will begin puppy class on Sunday at 12:30 PM. So will I!  

Marybe, be glad Harley is not like a mutt I used to have.  He could not get near any body of water except a bath tub without going for a swim.  He was only 30 or 35 lbs. so my guess is tat he probably had some beagle blood.

Baby Zoe 9 mo  and baby Stewie 9 weeks

You pets can be your good companion. After a year having a pet cat, I'm contented about it. My pet cat is so lovable and she do loves playing all the time which makes me to be away from boredom.

How did I pick Stewie?

LOL  My Grandfathers name was Harry Stewart. My 4yr old poodle mix rescue is named Harry, my new puppy is named Stewart, thus Stewie.  I imagine in some families my naming practices are weird but it feels nice to me.
