  3. Thank you. Miss Lindsey was quite proud of herself, and little did she know- the storm was far from over. We have another storm coming tommorow- just 48 hours after the storm that dumped 36 inches on us..

  9. Awww thank you! They have a great place to run in our back yard.
  10. Oh they are having a ball! I am literally having to make them come in.. lol
  11. Yea- she blinds in and was hard to get pictures of because of it..
  12. I waited until I knew it would work obviously. A friend of mine a few months ago gave me a tip on a product that you add to the drinking water that is fantastic on clearing mild tarter from teeth. Now I must say- this is with teeth you know there are no other problems- teeth all healthy, just a little plague or tarter on the teeth. Anyway- she swore by this and of course- it cost money. So I gave the link to a friend that looked it up with hemopathic people, and yes- it works! Even good for people.. Just in 4 days I can see a differenence and thought I thought share it. Anethesia in sighthounds is serious stuff- we have to find a vet that knows sighthounds, and only certain anethesia can be used, and even then- its a risk. To be blunt- we avoid anethesia like a life threatening situation- ie if we did not do it, the dog would die. So- avoiding this at all cost, this is how it started- Zubin is 4- and on his back teeth, you can see a little bit of plague. Nothing serious, teeth checked but we certainly want to avoid anethesia to clean the teeth. In talking with the same friend she said small dogs are at a risk for anethesia as well.. So this is what we did. We gave Zubin one strawberry twice a day. There is something in strawberries known for animals ( black bears for example) and people as well that distroys the plague acid.) Then we took the leaves off the strawberries, boiled them, let them sit, sift out the leaves, and added this to the water. ( same thing as the expensive product..) MY GOD - IT WORKED! In 4 days what little he had is gone! Now- key points- number one- know the teeth are healthy to start with ( we did) Second- look at the gums to make sure no inflamation, redness etc. Finally- make sure the dog has eaten and had water- then wont drink for about an hour after giving a strawberry. Oh and on 3rd day take either a dog toothbrush or an infant one and what is there- will fall off.. Now remember- again- this is not for a dog with advanced plague, tarter. So if your dog has a problem with that, a vet is best- I am talking about head off beginning stages to stop it- or should I say- HEAD IT OFF AT THE PASS...
  13. I swear- when this girl is awake- she is on the move. Little Miss 3 month old loves to play with 8 month old Lindsey. The Music is by Rossini and its the ... * you have to watch it but its really obvious... ENJOY!
  14. This boy is so out of it. He got on the love seat and hubby gave him a pillow to prop up his neck- right now all we are doing is making sure he is comfortable- this is a bad picture - but his eyes are HUGE! I took him outside to go potty and he tripped back legs over front legs on his front leg feathering. He obviously is not navigating well at all. He went to trip- here he is 4 foot tall at the head, at 100 pounds only 15 pounds lighter than I am and I am am trying to help him... I told him we both give up today- lets go to bed... Its 10pm here so now I am watching him sleep and first time I ever heard this- he is actually snoring! Poor guy- he is sooooooooo tired and relaxing well. He kept me awake most of last night yelping on and off in pain-. One of these days I am going to get some real sleep.
  15. Zubin reinjured his neck and this morning I had to rush him to the vet. He is on 3 meds and 'seriously stupid' as we would say. He is on rim, mthocarbanol and traminadol and half stupid. The vet said to keep him off stairs as he can not navagate and boy do I see why. Its like he is 1960's 'stoned. Can you see a dog at 35 inches at the shoulder at 100 pounds that even steps on his feathering on his front legs? I am glad he is okay- but boy does he look totally out of it. At least he is resting comfortably. ( pardon the comforter on the persian rug- but its his comforter from his double pillow top mattress and he likes it. I put him in the parlor for the night so he wont try steps and sleeping with him tonight as he is use to having someone with him.
  16. yes we do.. Deeply.. and thank you.
  17. Thank you all for your support and comfort. We are still numb here, trying to move things forward etc. We expanded our yard to give the dogs more room to run, and that seems to be helping Zubin alot with something new. He is obviously grieving. The last two nights at night, when he puts himself to bed, as he use to sleep with her, you hear the most gut wrenching mournful howl. It was less last night, but still present. Just like us, I think he just needs some time...
  18. for multiple reason. One- she is having a hard time and number two the original song I wanted is copyright still. So I changed the song. Femka has been the " glue" in this family. With the ability to raise young dogs to play- and next the dignified nature to deal with older dogs. She may just be a rescue, but that doesn't discount our love for her. She may have a scar on her face from her previous home, has her quarks as we did not get her until half way through her life- but all I see is beauty when I look at her face. She has an in-depth soul - I do not even know how to express this anymore than I have. Here you go- Femka was diagnosed with a problem in her heart, and I am afraid there is no hope. After two days of trying to find any answer, I am afraid the dreadful decission has been made. She has rapidly taken a turn for the worse. We lost her. Live on my sweet girl the 'black bullet'.
