New pictures of the dogs

I have some new pictures of my silly dogs on my webshots site.

The Cats

Since I last posted , we lost Miss Kitty. She developed hyperthyroidism. She was on meds for a while. They worked pretty good. A few months ago she suddenly went downhill. She stopped eating or drinking very much. We took her to the vet on a Friday, brought her home for the night , then took her back to the vet Saturday morning for euthanasia , we then took her to the pet cemetery for cremation. We cremated her because we do not have a place to bury our kittys yet.

Last night I thought we might loose Sylvester . He would not walk. He would drink and eat if we put it near him.
His arthritis in his back was acting up real bad. We had a weather system move in and it aggravated his back. He was doing better this morning , but I took him to the vet any way. She said , yes , it was time for him to get his arthritis shots again. We take him in every two weeks for a shot (total of 3) . That will take care of him for another year. He seems to feel better tonight. He is funny though. He knows it will hurt to get up on the sofa so he can lay down next to us , but he insists on climbing up there any way. We have to let him do it on his own though, we hurt him if we try to help.Right now he is sleeping by the fridge, it has warm air from the motor that blows out and there is a heater vent there too. He is also  hoping some one will drop some turkey or tuna or something on the floor. The dogs keep checking on him to make sure he is ok.

Well gotta go let the dogs in , talk some more later.

November

I have not been keeping up with this very well.
Today I have a gripe, but a triumph.
Every thing on the internet has their own search engine. It is a pain in the butt. I have spent the last hour getting rid or them . finally figured out how to do it on Google Chrome. I kept getting directed to 6topsearches.com, DO NOT GO TO THIS SEARCH ENGINE. On my computer it goes nowhere, just sits there and makes you mad.
Well, I got rid of the POS. I only want Google and Yahoo. I am familiar with them , I like them and I know how to use them.

got my new knitting book

I just got my new Modular Knits book today. I got it from Amazon for not too much , and it is new too.
Stayed tuned for some knitty stuff.

Melting snow

today it is warm (63) and the snow is melting . There are puddles of water everywhere.
Puddles equal mud which equals muddy puppy prints.................

Winter

It is freezing cold again. We are supposed to get more snow tonight , anywhere from nothing to over 12 inches.
I don't like the cold. It makes my feet hurt , and my hands, and it makes it hard to breathe. It really makes my asthma act up.
Most of the snow from last week is melted. The one year old dog loves the snow , does not mind the cold. She was pouncing and diving like she was a fox stalking something , and she was eating it. She is pretty heavy, has a thick body so the cold does not bother her, but then Pebbles is a kid dog so she does not know it is cold out.

Jewell likes the snow, but it is way too cold for her. She is not skinny, but she is a more slender dog, so she is not fond of the cold. She does like to chase the snow balls and things if you throw them . She loves trying to find the wild rabbits that live in the back yard. Neighbor said he has seen field rats in the area, we are close to some fields, I have not seen any. The rats would be stupid to be in our yard though, the dogs would worry them to death

Pebbles when we got her

Pebbles from last month, she loves that bone in her mouth

We got Pebbles last year in March , she is supposed to be a Australian Shepard / English Setter.
