Maxx is still spraying a bit but it is getting less and less everyday, he also has calmed down on his humping LuLu as well. He is becoming more trusting and has actually starting jumping up on my leg to get up. I have seen huge changes in him over the last few days and I don't think it will take long to get him to a happy normal state.
LuLu had no health issues at all and her teeth are good. On top of that my vet said she was not 'over' bred and was not 100% sure if she was pregnant - but said we would soon find out. LuLu is happy as a clam and is not timid and shy like Maxx (I think she got more attention in her last home)
My vet felt so bad about the whole situation she actual cut me a deal on the vet visit (which included shots) and is doing Maxx's whole dental procedure for only $150. I am over joyed. With the medical out of the way I am very relieved, now I can just focus on getting these pups to a healthy mental state!
Regardless if I was ripped off or not I am overjoyed with my 2 new family members and can see a very long life them. The whole family (even my husband) is just in love with these 2 dogs!
I will post pictures soon. |
Isn't it amazing what love and caring can do? This...what you are seeing, especially with Maxx...is the whole reason I have rescued animals for so long...and why my family growing up also rescued animals. To see an animal in the condition your Maxx was in...who knew nothing of what it is like to be loved...and the turn around he is making because even without knowing what love is he can see that you and your family do love him...is without a doubt one of the greatest gifts you can receive! What a human may have tried to do in terms of financial manipulation against you will be returned many times over to you by the unconditional love these babies already have for you. You've uncapped their love buckets...get ready for the outpouring! Bless you for giving these babies the first real chance of their life!
I can hardly wait to see their pix!
