Thanks for all your kind words. I am at my daughter's lacrosse games & don't have enough time to post Trixie's story just now but will hopefully be able to do that tonight....if u are like myself get your Kleenex ready bc it will make u cry - but I am blessed to say it is a sad story that has a happy ending !! I give thanks every day that I was able to save Jazzy in time, she is such a sweetie. If it's OK I will post her story in more detail as well, in 2 separate threads. As for Trixie's puppies - sadly I can't afford to keep all 5 of them; I am keeping 1, possibly 2 of them. Trixie had to have an emergency c section and as y'all probably know that was quite expensive. Then 2 of the puppies got sick & without my amazing vet they would have died. Thankfully that did not happen, it would have devastated me. So the vet bills & cost of they & Trixie's care have went into thousands, instead of hundreds, of dollars. But worth every cent & I would do all over again without hesitation! Unfortunately, as a single mom w 2 expensive teens(aren't they all lol) I did not anticipate just how expensive their care would be, & it has left me deep in debt so I'm hoping to recover Some of the $$ I have spent by adopting out 3-4 of the puppies - I apologize if adopting out is the wrong wording, 'selling' jusy seems so cold. But I can assure everyone that any prospective adopters will be fully screened & questioned extensively, I like to say they will need national security clearance to adopt one of my puppies lol ! I am hopeful that they will go to homes near me as I will not ship any puppies! And that their new parents will agree to allow me to keep in touch & visit <3
I'm off to watch lacrosse but will reply when time allows & hope that anyone reading this thread will check back & read 'Trixie's Story', as well as 'Jazzy's story' that I will post later this evening or tomo. Thanks so much !!! |
