VISITING THE CHRISTMAS PUPS

I visited the Christmas 2024 Rescue dogs yesterday.  I’ve been w them several times.  They all had numbers from the shelter but we also gave them Christmas names.  We do that to every dog who comes to us during December. 

We chose: 
Tinsel, Jolly, Jack, Jingle, Nicholas, Kringle, Gabriel, Noelle, Kris, Bethany, and Holly.   There was a big range in weight/ from 7.2 pounds to 13.5 pounds.   All are underweight. But they love to eat and we have them all on Hills ID food.  I use it for every foster.  They like the taste and it’s a good choice for avoiding stomach issues. It’s gentle and easy on their systems. 

They’ve had their labs done.  They were all anemic from the fleas.   Their skin was a mess.  But they are healing.  
Some are bossy. Some have no need to be the boss. They love attention.  Some just want to snuggle. 
At least 3 will see the ophthalmologist.  One needs an eye removed.  Some need nasal fold surgery and  dentals. All  spay/neuter and the ones who have hernias will have those repaired.  Coming into rescue on the holidays makes everything a little slower.  Two left the vet today for foster homes.  More will go to their foster homes soon.  It’s a lot to take in at once. 
Kringle met my crew and was not phased a bit. Everyone sniffed and then decided he was okay. 
Today is the last day of 2024.  All of these pups are beginning a new life.  We think it will be wonderful.  #Chistmas2024

READY FOR 2025?

I mentioned that as the holidays are finishing we would like to rest.  I think our pets do, too. Hunter has watched me coming and going,  doing extra things, and as I write this, he is curled up across my lap, sound asleep. 
Callie hasn’t done anything strenuous, but she’s our old girl so she sleeps a lot anyway. 
Cinnamon is worn out by Hunter so she curled up on the bed and fell asleep. 
Piper did too!  After a hair destroying play session w Hunter, he was ready to just zone out for awhile. 
Hunter later took over the top of the bed. He likes getting under the covers if he can. 

Even two of my grand-dogs are exhausted.  So much going on means TIME OUT.  Lily climbed on the couch and that was it. 
Dave, a big recent addition got up there too.  And he requested covers. 
New Years is coming fast.  Dave is going to sleep through it.  What are your plans?

CHRISTMAS REST

This was a full week.  
Paddington and Toasty loved celebrating this week.  It was so much fun watching the grandkids open presents.  But Christmas can make you want to take a nap. 
Piper (who shakes and then looks wild) was definitely ready for a rest.   Piper and Hunter play a lot now.  It’s really good for Hunter.  He needs a friend when he finds a home. 
Hunter likes to get under the covers at night.  He comes out and snuggles w me.   Resting is fun! 
Granger was exhausted.  Thank goodness he found a box to climb into. He’s the cardboard king.  Maybe we can all rest a few hours today. The New Year is coming so rest up!

MEMORIES

Starlight…All of us have special memories that come up at Christmas.  I remember my parents, my sister and special friends who are no longer here.  But I also know we are creating new memories every day. 
Lexie was my first IMHA Peke.  Oh she was a sweetheart. She loved the tiny tennis balls. 
If you’ve known me for long you know how Kai Kai and I had such a bond.  I love putting my face to his hair and breathe in the love. 
Bee Bee and Nala.  Losing them both, especially Nala, was difficult.  My second and third IMHA dogs. 
Minnie was beautiful under the tree. 
Tiny Clara was so loving.  I could hold in my hand. 
Cranberry was the first Mama Dog here.  She could look over her domain but she wouldn’t come down until she realized everyone was having fun except her. 
Minnie again at Christmas, snuggled in w some toys. 
Callie is still w us.  She’s old and gets meds for high blood pressure and other old age things.  She’s still happy, a little slower.  She’s definitely Mama Dog now. 
 Kenobi wasn’t here long but what an impression he made.  So much sweetness.  Every time I see the red sweater I remember him. 
My gang of Five loved ones. They each left an imprint on my heart. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Gidget (adopted by Amee) and Sissy.   Gidget is still singing at Amee’s house.  Sissy was a precious one. 
Each one was a special part of my life. Christmas is a  time of  hope.  I believe tomorrow we will be making joyful new memories.  If you’d like to post a special memory. I’d love for you to share. 
πŸŽ„πŸŽ„MERRY CHRISTMAS! πŸŽ„πŸŽ„
