Because I feel like every couple needs to jazz things up in their relationship...I brought home some puppies. This meant 6 dogs in our house. It certainly "jazzed" things up. As "D" hated them. Seriously who couldn't love these guys....and how hard could it be to raise a few abandoned puppies for a "few" weeks.
It started with an impassioned plea for help. The rescue had 9 abandoned puppies. They were too little to be adopted. Plus all the dogs must go through a two week quarantine. How could I say no. Look at those faces.
We took cute photos for the website. And we made them a cozy home and we loved them...For exactly two days....then PARVO!
Parvo is almost always fatal if supportive care is not received. The virus can't be treated but the symptoms can be managed.
Now we had sick puppies. Lots of medicine. Lots of trips to the vet.
An emergency transport and lots of sleepless nights.
This baby almost didn't make it.
But she did. And before we knew it she was home, playing and growing.
The cuteness is just too much!
And they were adopted and I took them to their forever homes on their 8 week birthday. It was wonderful to have them in our lives for 4 weeks.
