and bought her a crate. Then I came along and got her. She still had her stitches in her belly and they gave me her crate. The shelter is 28 miles away from home, so on the way home I could tell she had kennel cough. The vet could not see her that day, but next morning she was at the vets. He said she was days away from death from her kennel cough, he gave her a shot and pills and we went back 3 or 4 days later. Bambi was feeling a lot better. the follow up visit went well. Her stitches were taken out and he gave her a thumbs up!!!
That will be 12 years ago the 1st of February. I have never had a dog this long before!! I love it, she knows me so well and I know her so well. It is WONDERFUL !!!!!!!!
Happy holidays my blog friends!! We are having a great time. Tom has gone back to work today.
He plans on working 3 days this week and then a long week-end again. I hope that is the way it plays out!!!!
Big hugs, Bambi, Happy and Fern

I have seen that happen so many times...for some reason, the fit just isn't right between some people and dogs. Bambi was meant for you and vice versa!
ReplyDeleteThat is so lovely. So lucky that you came along and that there was happiness ahead for both of you.. Lovely... Hugs GJ xx
