2 pup madness

Ok, ok I know I had enough animals!.... but I have been wanting a dog since we lost Ford and then Owdie. My husband did not want any dogs! .... so we went 3 hours one way to pick up the dog he didn't want. And then we tried picking one out to go home. When my husband asked how much if he took both 😳 and we went home with 2 boys! Jay said he felt bad for splitting them up.. and I mean look at those eyes... who could say no? 

They have completely different personalities. RUGAR ( the one who has a solid black ear. ) He is the boss. He just plows into anything and just loves the cats. But he is 100% border collie energy. Now his brother BULLSEYE is very timid and about half his size ( and both males ) 

Fast Forward they are now almost 7 months they have not got much bigger ( I will add another picture once I get to my tablet ) but Rugar is still twice the size but Bullseye is now the boss! Rugar is the sweetheart but Bullseye boss's Rugar around more and gets Jealous the most. But over all they do get a long great. I was more of a crazy cat lady. even though I always had a dog 2 dogs are new to me. So I have changed my dog training up as time went on. I now only walk one at a time. they go out to pee and poo separate times ( every time ) I take them on 2 walks each days ( I try I live in Pa so the weather can be cold, rain or snow lately but it should be getting nicer ) so that's 4 walks for me each day. ) but Bullseye LOVES his ball. he will bring it back... Rugar also loves it but he loves to run away with it. they say Border Collies are the smartest dogs... But idk they do learn fast but mine are just not there yet. lol they are not supper cuddly :( maybe if we would have just got one it would have been better. I mean don't get me wrong they are great but I wouldn't tell people its a good idea especially if you are not home! I am lucky enough to be home all day with them or be able to take one of them with us all the time. if they where left home all the time no way it would be a nightmare and could see the problems people could have.

I did loose 2 couches ( check my social videos TikTok or YouTube ) they literarily chewed the one to pieces. I think I was just with them when they were little 24/7 well my husband never wanted to crate them when I did have to leave them ( just for literally a tiny bit ) they got nervous and chewed it. then I did get a box and my husband forgot to put the one in it and they got to the big one ( so I have half chewed couch now cause I do not want a new one cause I am scared to get a new one Cause If they ruined a brand new couch I would be so upset. at least this couch I literally was ready for a new one ( I mean not the way I wanted it to go out but hey... puppy life? so I hope with summer coming they will get to training a bit better so far I can see a big change. they treat the cats good. and I have to make appointments to get them fixed soon! I do know Ticks are really bad this year the medicine I did get them this month did not work ! so next month I will try something else! should I get them their own insta? follow their madness right now on my socials ... here is their updated pics 

Trip to the emergency room.

Anyone who knows me knows how much I care about animals, one of my pashions. And my pets are family!

Most of you know my black lab ford. He is a British block head lab. We had got him when I first got pregnant with aspin. Making ford almost 9. And OK he is a bit over weight.

We found him really sick when we got back from the zoo, he couldn't control his bladder , and didn't have control of his body, foaming at the mouth and flinging his head back. Wow I still can picture it as I'm writing this. Was so scary and I couldn't do anything to help him, probably one of the worst situations you can be in.

My vet was closed I took him to closet vet hospital,  to be honest I didn't think he was going to make it.

Him being 135 lbs we struggled to get him in the car to go. After getting him to the vet they ran blood work. Everything came back fine ! I was relieved a bit cause first thing I thought was limes. But now all blood work came back good now what? She said it had to be something neroligical. I had 2 choices .... I could let him there to be monitored overnight with iv and steroids or transport him (4000) to a hospital that did mris.  I said to monitor him overnight as he was already coming back to himself.

As I left him there overnight sick with strangers I never met and didn't have his stuffed animal to give him. I walked away worried then he went to stand up to follow me, I knew he was feeling better. As before he couldn't even follow his eyes. Was a long 12 hours waiting for vet to call back! Finally 9 am I call. They said he was 100% better. I can come take him home. Hard to believe, and needed to see myself to be the judge of that. Rase down to get him.

Waiting patiently in the waiting room just waiting for him to get brought out . And i heard it ... his tail hitting each side of the hallway on the way out. He was himself and so happy to see me ready to leave!

It's been 3 days. He has been on steroids 2 times a day. He is 100% better than he was ! But not 100% himself. Let's hope the medicine helps. I don't know who comes up with the price of vet bills but no wonder you see some deserted at shelters. Too expensive and when you can't afford it they fine you.  Shame sad world.
