My Baby Boy Duke passed on

He was only 4 years old but such a fantastic dog. There were no warning signs it just happend and my heart just broke. I love my animals and try and do the best I can, then when something like this happens I just wonder if I should ever have animals.

This dog, slept all day long and woke me up at night when he wanted to go out and in the morning when it was time to feed them. Now everything has changed, no tag along. I miss him very much. I belief every animal has personality. He was like a child just needed to start to talk.

My daughter phoned me early the morning crying because he couldn't walk his whole back was dragging behind him.

The week before he was at the Vet where they took off a growth on his one back leg. There were no signs that anything was wrong. I just don't feel satified enough not knowing the reason why a healty dog would just brake down like that. I don't think at this time that I would concider buying another dog!

Bokkie is growing up very beautiful, she is like a child. Keeps me running catching socks and picking up shoes. She will be loosing her baby teeth soon hopefully then we won't have to hide everything from her.

People probably think that I am nut because I think of my dogs as my kids but they realy are. Everytime I go out even if it is just for 5 min they are always happy to see me and great me with a smile. Every night I go home after work they wait for me at the gate and I feel needed because I then give them food and see that they are happy to be with me. The only problem is that they get sick and can not tel me what is wrong so I can help.


When I am in a bad mood and they come closer looking for attention it brightens up my whole day. I think that I need them just as much as they need me.

Susha is 7 years old, she was born with a deformed hip. There wasn't much anyone could do for he because we couldn't afford the procedure. But by grace she is still with us. She is one of those dogs that sleep during the day because she is awake at night. So many times she has told us of someone close to the property before the person appears.

Now that duke isn't with us anymore she sleeps in the house and at night in my bedroom because I want to make sure that she gets rest I don't want to loose her soon. This whole year I was worried that she wasn't going to make it through the winter then what happens the one we new nothing about duke dies.

Baby Rabbits

Yesterday my daughters rabbit had five baby rabbits, only one died. The mother either doesn't know who or just plain wants nothing to do with them. So yesterday I gave milk to four small rabbits. They looked like mice. The whole day it was rainny and cold I felt so bad for them that they had to keep warm with a hot water bottle. They are so beautiful and tiny, will just have to take care of them no matter what. Today is day two and the mother still wants nothing to do with them so lunch time I will have to feed them some milk again. At least today isn't so cold hopefully they will not feel to cold today.

Mind in Overdraft

You know how they say take everyday as it is don't worry about tomorrow? Well I feel it today, today is not one of those good days. When I was young nothing much bugged, but now that I am all grown up things start to scare me. Things like when my husband keeps getting bad spells, not sleeping well and he just doesn't seem him self. What goes through my mind is, how will I cope if he dies? I know it sounds silly but it creaps in when you see people change and know that it has to do with age and hard work. You don't think that one day you might have a huge life style change but it happens it is part of life as we know it. Today I appreciate my husband and remind myself that he is my life and that everyday with him is a blessing something not to take lightly.

Today the 30th Sept 2011 I took my husband to see a heart specialist. Wednesday he's got to go to hospital for another test. Part worried part not, I think that he is going to be ok the worried part is the part that goes into overdrive on any situation not under control. Will not worry about that now we are going to enjoy our weekend and spend time together doing what we love doing.

My New Adventure!

A time to try new things and experiance new things.  I find myself is a place where I need to have a life, when you grow up everything changes and different things start to mea different things. I love spending time outside, talking and playing with my dogs, I love them so much cannot imagine life without them. Soon I will load photo's of them and you will see what I mean.
