Tonks before and now

Tonks is getting so big

So Tonks is about 4 or 5 months..I'm gonna say 4 just because she still has all her puppy teeth! Boy is she getting huge! I'm going to weigh her tomorrow during puppy class. I think she has to be at least 35lbs. she was only 151bs when we got her last month. So far she's learned Sit, Stay, Come (kinda) and shake...we're working on roll over today. Maybe I should start vlogging her progress. We'll see...

watch where you're going!!!

Come on people....When you make a right had turn at a light make sure there are no pedestrians! Maggie our little dachshund and myself almost got taken down by a woman in her SUV.  This woman made me so angry...I wish she would have turned into the shopping center where we were headed because I was ready to take HER down after that. Actually it was pretty funny...because I yelled after her while I was walking across the street...she started turning into where we were going and then made a U turn..I'm not sure if its because she knew what she did our she was just really making a U turn, but it made me laugh thinking she was just scared of me.  So anyways...please make sure to pay attention while you drive there could be people with their dogs and/or kids out and about! Thank you!!!

Goodbye Jack Hello Tonks

Well its been over a month now that Jack passed away..I never wrote a post about it cuz it made me too sad to write about. 
Unfortunately we had to take him to the emergency vet the Friday before Easter because the injury he had just took over his body. We ended up having to transfer him to a neurologist and things just got worse from there. We found out it wasn't an injury at all, but a fungal disease he probably picked up at a shelter in Utah. (Where he came from). The vet said fungal diseases can mask themselves as spine injuries and when you give the animal things like pain meds and steroids to cure the injury, it helps the fungal disease take over....The vet did not look optimistic about Jacks well being....he was in a lot of pain those last couple of days we had him so we made the hard decision to let him go peacefully.  It was the first time my husband or myself had to put a dog down. Jack was the first dog we adopted as a couple. He was crazy, fun and a sweetheart and we still miss him terribly....but its nice to know he's not in pain anymore...

......Well my husband and I thought it would be nice to go to the local animal shelters a couple of weeks after Jack died and just look at doggies, a little bit of dog therapy! We weren't planning on getting another dog....we just wanted to look and it actually felt nice seeing all those puppies and knowing we might be able to give one a home one day. Well......we stumbled across a bundle of cuteness and we couldn't control ourselves! We had to have her! She's was a four month old Cathoula Leopard Dog they named her Misty and she was in a kennel all by herself..We went into see her and fell in love.  She had two holds on her so we thought for sure we would never get her...but because she's a wild child both families dropped out of the hold and she was ours! We knew it was fate....who would pass up that adorable face?  So we adopted her and brought her home! She for sure has not taken the place of Jack...she's actually the complete opposite of Jack....She's feisty, does not like to cuddle and doesn't come when called..haha..but she's super cute and VERY smart. Oh and we names her Tonks after the witch in Harry Potter.

Hopefully things will work out with her. I'll keep an update on her progress as a growing puppy..she's already learned sit and shake! Well I think thats all I have to write! I think this is the longest post I've done...hopefully I'll do more!

I'll miss you Jack! You were a fabulous dog!!! You and Tonks would have had so much fun together...
