| Update on Jackson and our little scare... I was able to get an appointment into the vet earlier today and we found out that Jacks has a collapsing trachea. We know its common in small dogs, and not a big death threat, but we were sad to hear it nonetheless. Thanks for your thoughts and well wishes. Our little guy is snuggling with daddy right now, so he's doing just fine.

| (((hugs))) and Welcome to the Club! Zoe and Zorak also have the collapsing trachea issues. They are usually okay since we use harness, the only time they have it rough is when they get over excited. We just calm them down and help them relax. Be certain to NEVER use a collar for ANY reason on a lead... you can use them to hold the tags, but not to lead the doggies by.

Oh, we never do that. We knot how delicate his little neck is. He's always in a harness if we're taking him on walks.
