Well, I just had my surgery on Wednesday and things went very well! I have less pain than the first surgery (possibly because I am right-handed and this was on the left hand and elbow). I'm already noticing a difference...no more numbness. I even felt well enough to go out on the boat to see...

I just had this surgery (called open release) which severs the transverse carpal ligament. I also had the cubital tunnel surgery (anterior submuscular transposition of the ulnar nerve) at the same time in my elbow which also severs a ligament and the ulnar nerve is repositioned. It's...

It is with great sadness and also relief that my beloved JoJo has found his new family. Due to financial and family circumstances beyond my control, I have had to find homes for two out of three of my boxers. It was so heartbreaking leaving him with his new family. They seem like wonderful...

I also think that the term for her coloring is checked. She is absolutely gorgeous, however, and you must feel fortunate for having such a beauty in your life!

This post reminded me of a time when Daisy was just a few months old. My brother was visiting from out of state and we were taking a day trip that would last about 8 hours. Being my first puppy, I did not realize that the bag of hamburger buns on the table outside would become a victim to her...

First and foremost, I am very sorry for your loss. No matter what, he was still your biological father and had a part to play in you being here. With that said, you sound like a very mature, rational person and handled everything as good as you could have. We all have disfunction in our...

38 seconds! Now I gotta try for the record here. Good job Gen G!

I just had to reply to this one! I have two almost empty bottles of perfume in my bathroom cabinet and I'm looking for some ideas of something new. Ones I have now: I Love Love--citrus with a slight hint of spice Ralph Lauren's Romance--very mild, hard to describe!

I like Onyx. I've always liked Baci (kisses in Italian--pronounced Bah-chi) as a name for a dog--especially a slobbery one! I also like what someone else suggested--Magpie--a black bird that's very vocal! Others I like: Jetta--derived from latin meaning black Ciara--Irish for little...

Lily is now home. She's a little tired and dirty so I will give her a bath after she naps. Got new tags, new license, and updated her microchip info. I think I learned my lesson!

Yay! I got a phone call from the old number on her tag. It seems she got picked by animal control. I will be able to pick her up tomorrow! Thanks so much everyone!

Wow, I just did that. Thank you so much!

It is with tears in my eyes that I post this. We had a very windy day yesterday and my gate blew open somehow. Daisy and Lily got out but only Daisy could be found. Lily is white, deaf, approximately 50 pounds and wearing a black leather studded collar with a tag bearing her name, deafness...

My white Lily was basically free from a show breeder. I just paid for the airfare, health cert required by the airline, and her crate she was shipped in!

Absolutely agree! But in my JoJo's case, his eight week puppy stacked pictures showed a little bit longer muzzle, his topline not to standard, and he is very plain. Thus being sold as a pet and was neutered before he came to me at 15 weeks. Well, when he matured, I got some really great...
