New Family Member!

Well, my sister Tena called and offered up a new dog last week. I didn't think we would take her because of what is going on with Sidney. However, Chris surprised me and said yes. He was worried about Mishka being alone. On Sunday, I went and picked her up! Her name is Pumpkin, she was born on Halloween and will be 2 this October. She is a full blooded Dachshund. Here she is:

Isn't she a beauty? It was really love at first sight for me! Totally different story with Mishka. Mishka doesn't like having a new dog in the house. So far they have had 2 Royal Rumbles and Mishka has countless growled and snarled at her. Sidney on the other hand is fine with her and we thought he wouldn't like her. We thought Mishka would love having her to play with. So far this is the closes I can get all 3 together.

I keep telling Miskha that Pumpkin is here to stay and she isn't going anywhere! Pumpkin is a great dog. Already housebroken and everything! So, keep your fingers crossed that all will work out in due time! We are so hoping that Mishka and Pumpkin becomes geat friends!

Sad News!

Earlier this week I took Sidney to the vet for all the peeing he has been doing (especially in the house). He lost another 7 lbs. He weighs just 38 lbs! When he should be around 60ish. You can see his ribs and his backbone. The vet looked him over and is pretty sure he has cancer! He is a lot more lumps and bumps then he did when he was checked in February! She could take a sample from a lump but it could be hit and miss with so many different ones. Basically, it is just keeping him comfortable. The vet did not tell my how long, I did not, could not ask her! I don't want to know! This is killing me! Every time I look at him my heart breaks a bit more each time. I give him lots and lots of treats and loving, no matter if he pees on the floor or not. He is like my baby, I got him the year after I had my ectopic pregnancy. He is such a joy to have around, such a good boy. I'm trying to be very, very strong and not cry every time I look at him. Until the time comes, I will continue to enjoy, love and spoil him!!
