Initially, I was super sad that Sadie became pregnant. I had planned on getting her fixed but thought she was too young. I let her out a couple times after she had broken her tie out and she got out of the fence multiple times.
She ended up having seven puppies (ie - past posts) and they are sooo freaking cute, but I definitely don't want that to happen again. I've got an appointment with the vet to take her in next week and hopefully we can get her fixed ASAP.
The puppies are about 5 weeks old now. She only lets them feed at night now, and it's become quite an event. She is starting to growl and snap at them. Makes me so sad. We feed them mush (puppy food and warm water), and gradually have been making it more dry every so many days. They drink water. I think they will be pretty ready to go to new homes soon.
One has already found a new home, which I am so happy about because they are cool dudes. Its just a little bittersweet to give up these beautiful babies. Unfortunately, I cannot keep 10 dogs and 2 cats. I'd love to, however, I don't think our wallets can afford it nor does my husband love that idea. I can't wait til they all get to their new homes and have wonderful families.
June has been a crazy month. New schedule at work went into place in May to make it so we're only open every other weekend. I finally was moved to the first half of the shift which means no weekends! Wooohoo! for less than a week, though. :( Then the new schedule was implemented, so not cool. I get it though, it was so the other shift doesn't have to work every Friday and Saturday. I hated it, so I totally get it. It still sucks, though.
We have had kind of a lull lately too due to marketing staffing issues. That's been fixed, and we have an awesome replacement, but we are just now getting the after effects of the previous' mistakes/faults...ie not even showing up to dr offices or actually doing any marketing. BLAH. Luckily, it's not been drastic to call us off multiple nights.
J is looking for a new job, and has a perfect prospect and has been offered a position pending background/drug check. I hope he starts soon, he seems so excited, and it will be nice for him to make more money and be happy! He seems so depressed working the other job. They aren't doing so well, and he has had some issues with things there, so on to better things!
Everything else is going as normal... nothing too exciting. We have some get togethers/reunions coming up soon, looking forward to that.
Can't wait to get back down to Houston again soon to see my favorite lil man! He is growing so much and isn't a baby anymore. Miss that little face of his. I guess I miss his parents a smidge too :-P
I need to get some new pics of the furbabies and puppies up soon!
