Confused and Overwhelmed-Diagnosed Anal Sac Carcinoma (Woody has passed)

That's the best attitude to have babe. At least it's in the afternoon so you didn't have you force yourself up too early. Like you say all good experience.

Forgot to ask, when is Mac coming for his visit?

He is arriving next Friday the 31st and staying till the Monday morning, my mate is going to Luton for her grand daughters christianing, Mac normally goes with them but they are flying down so he can,t go. He is a sweet little thing and is no trouble, is great on and off lead, doesn,t bother with other dogs basically the complete opposite of Woody lol

Tia was the well behaved one, Boyce is also a rotter with other dogs!

Will be good for you to have him for the weekend. I took Boyce on different routes for a while so I didn't feel so sad so might be an idea to go exploring further with mac. Will be nice for you to have doggie company for a few days

Yea I,m looking forward to it, I do miss a little doggie in the house, this is the longest I have been in 15 yrs without a dog. I only last 4 weeks between Bruno passing and Woody arriving, but I,m determined to stick to my plan of job - car - doggy as I would have one right now but I need to make sure I can afford it, as we all know how high vet bills are. So if I get the job tomorrow that's me one step closer to a getting a new friend :D

I went a few months between Tara (red staffie) and Tia and Boyce and I know that's it's a very empty feeling.

I do so hope part one of the plan comes off tomorrow. If you rescue then you don't know what could crop up so it does make sense to me. Vets bills are shocking for all of us

Do you think you will go for another Boy or get a girlie this time?

I,ve only ever had one girl and that was a very badly abused German Shepherd, her owner took an iron bar to her, she was my first rescue and turned into a beautiful, calm dog, then I had Rebel (boy) he was a rescue long haired Shepherd, he was a crackin dog and died of old age, not a sick day in his life, then came Bruno (boy) a JRT cross who was kept in a shed till the SSPCA took him at 16 wks old, I got him at 18 weeks and he lived till he was 11 and half, he was terrified of the world, suffered separation anxiety but he was my soul dog, and then came my wee man Woody and we all know how that turned out. I think girls are more loving than boys in some breeds, but basically I don,t look at sex or breed its just whoever chooses me for their new owner. I am inclined to get another terrier as I do love their personality. I would have german shepherds all day long I love the breed but don,t have the lifestyle for them.

Oh I,ve just given you my doggie history :p:eek:

:D loves doggie history. Poor little mights, people who hurt animals make me so angry, will never understand it. Good on you for giving them a great home.

I love terriers too as you know. Spunky little characters. Will be one little pups lucky day sometime soon xxx

I hope so, as I don,t feel quite complete unless I have a 4 legged furry friend to come home to :D Woody was a Dogstrust dog, and they have already contacted me about a young JRT needing a home, a few weeks back but I,ve managed to say no, and told them when I decide to rehome again I will let them know. :D

Did you win the battle between the washing machine and the socks :confused:

Good its 11.30pm already, you better get yourself off to bed soon for work in the morning;)

Bet that was quite hard to say no.

Yes, we have hard water here, so I figured the pipe might be a bit clogged so shook it around and bashed it to free it up then put a cleaner in the machine. Wasn't gonna lose those were nice ones I got for Xmas!

Didn't realise it was nearly 12, will try and pop in to wish you luck before tomorrow, if I can't, will be thinking positive vibes for you

Night night
