Default Jelly's story

For all of you who asked...here ya go. Jelly was out of a litter of 6 little princesses. She was so much smaller than the others when she was born, her mom knew something was wrong and kept whining to us and moved her. We quickly intervened, made a homemade incubator, handfed every 2hrs, gave her dabs of cornsyrup, she was doing a little better than she aspirated, I thankfully had read up on puppy CPR but it took so much out of her. The vet told us on three seperate occassions that they didn't feel she would make it. She was just too weak. We refused to give up. The vet is astonished and makes over her everytime we have went in. The name Jelly hit me like a ton of bricks. Ya see we had been making Jelly/Jam for the 1st time over the summer and it had to be made just right to set, well the baby had to be taken care of just right to live, thus the name jelly, (it turned into Jelly Bean because my husband and 3 yr old son loves jelly beans. Of course my 3yr old likes to call her jelly fish cause she wiggles in his lap.)
