Well, let me tell you, she is becoming a little diva pretty fast, LOL! I don't know if you know the story of my Roxie, but she died one month ago today from eating a sago palm seed that she got in our backyard. We had no idea it was poison and it had been in our yard for 15 years. It has been horrible and I still cry every single day. I keep thinking I will wake up from this nightmare. Penny was my lifeline and I think I was hers, too. We needed each other so badly. I still cry and grieve over Roxie and always will, but Penny has made it bearable for me.
Your babies are just precious! Looks like they are on the spoiled side, too! |
So sad what happened with your precious Roxie. Kudos to you for being able to help another in such need... not everyone can do that. It does take time... one of my females that came from a not so bad situation 3 years ago is still 'coming out of her shell'. She, just this week, started playing with me on the bed... chasing after my hands. She hasn't played with any toys yet either. HAving other dogs around I think helps them immensely
