I still only have Honey, Loki and Roxie. My granddaughter applied for a job at the local shelter. I was so happy. I told her she could keep me posted on what dogs came in. Her reply, "No grandma, absolutely not. You are not getting any more dogs. I will not tell you anything about them." I guess I can understand that. I am, after all, 72 and I really don't want to leave my family with a whole bunch of animals to care for. Maybe I will start fostering.
My son called me last week. His smallest one, 3 pounds, had jumped off a chair and was crying and favoring her leg. He grabbed her and rushed to the vet. Vet told him she had just bruised her leg and was ok. So this attachment to animals is genetic. My sister has 9 dogs, a Nigerian dwarf goat, two cats, 26 chickens and 10 ducks. Of course she lives in the country, but still I am jealous. One of the cats thinks she is a dog. The goat thinks she is a dog. Oh and a chicken that rules everyone. Love animals.
