Linz,
This little mangy mutt (sweet baby LOL) is my Moms dog Mimi (I say Mutt lovingly, she is a porkie? yoodle? lol yorkie/poodle mix yorkiepoo). Mimi was a year old when a guy at the store just GAVE her to my mom. She was very timid (still is) and neglected. Mimi was the guy's wives dog and she left the guy and Mimi was left behind with 2 larger dogs. The guy was traveling a lot and had no time for Mimi. My mom fell in love with her at the pet store where the guy was dropping her off for grooming and asked to hold her. The guy just told my mom she could have her. Poor Mimi was attacked by a larger dog months later while on a walk with my step father. The vet did not think she'd make it through surgery but she did. Then they said she would MAYBE walk again but never jump or climb stairs again.
Well she does it all.... runs, jumps, climbs, walks... everything! I know I told you this, but it was MANY pages ago and I wanted to reiterate how special these babies are and how strong and will full and stubborn they are! So, like Mimi, Layla will thrive.
have a great weekend!
