Trey and Meg

This was taken a couple days ago, its Megan in the new sweater I made her and Trey being goofy.

Meggie Meg Meg!

Ohhhh, Meg is SOOOO cute!!!!!

She is um... how should I say this... SPOILED! And we weren't the ones who spoiled her!! LOL I really have no idea why anyone would have given up this dog!!! She's obviously been fed only table scraps as no matter what kind of dog food we give her she won't touch it. I've been mixing dog food w/ people food hoping to wean her onto her own food lol. But honestly, she is still SO skinny that if she eats ANYTHING we are excited. She was (and still is) dangerously thin when we got her, but she's starting to gain a little, bit by bit. She loves chicken and scrambled eggs - and left over Chinese haha!

And the best thing!?!?! She PEES OUTSIDE!!!!!! HAHA That might not seem like much, but Athena never got the hang of the outside business. She isn't totally trained on doing her "other" business outside, but since she isn't eating, she isn't doing much of that anyway. We do need to work with her about letting us know she needs to go out, but she will instantly pee when you take her out - its awesome lol!!!

She gets along great with the kids, too - well, when they aren't forgetting she isn't Athena and try to play a little too rough.

We can tell that Meg is feeling much better, because she's running around now, and jumping on the couch and starting to bark at the cat lol. I bought her a rawhide bone today and it was hilarious to watch her play with it.

She's a keeper, for sure!

There's a new dog in town!!

Well, Athena left us yesterday, and we got a new dog today. :-) (And just so you all know, we heard from Athena's new family right after she was delivered and they were VERY excited to finally have her, and loved her already.) We had to drive to Louisville to get the dog, but she's worth it. She's a Basset Hound, and she was adopted from the Humane Society. She's VERY skinny, but she just was spayed yesterday, and all of December has been filled with Vet visits, shots, being spayed, and moving from place to place. So, you can't really blame her for not wanting to eat, right??

As soon as we brought her in the door she found part of a biscuit from this morning's breakfast and ate it right up, even though she wouldn't touch the puppy food, so we fixed her some toast lol. She did eat some. Her little tummy is still sore, and the lady who did the adoption missed that she'd just been fixed yesterday, so we didn't know. Fortunately, we were already being very cautious with her!! Syd said, she must have JUST had surgery because she has stitches on her belly. So I looked through the paperwork, and yup yup, she was spayed on 12/5. So anyway, she's doing VERY well for being one day post-op, in my opinion lol!!! She did a little warning growl twice at Trey when he got in her face after rolling around her, but that's acceptable, I'd be growling after surgery lol.

But she's in bed with Charles and Trey right now, and I'm hoping there will be room for me when I go in there in a little bit!! HAHA (Bigger pics coming soon)

Ohhh - her name is "MEG".
