    I was supposed to keep them apart, but that didn't happen. Eddy acted like he was going to die if he didn't get to see her.

    Ama, Maggie looks great. Isn't funny how tiny her little bones are under the fluff?!
    Yippee for Twiggy. Heidi and Maggie were thick-as-thieves from the minute Maggie arrived. Heidi about bounced off the walls "oh goodie, look what they brought me, a friend!!!" I bet you were relieved they hit it off so well?

    Occassionally, I shave the girls myself and they both are so tiny under the fluff. They seem like such bigger dogs when we let them get a bit wild 'n wooly.

    Oh my god--this thread is my weakness...I couldn't resist. What a magnificently cute little thang!!! She is absolutely perfect for 12.

    What kind of dog is she??

    She is a Shih Tzu. Pure love and loves to snuggle. Some people think these dogs are barky or yippy. She really does not bark much at all until she gets excited while playing with my husband. Gosh she is such a sweet dog.

    Here is my ferret Whizz, unfortunately no longer with us:



    And this is Eric, the cat, about to celebrate his 8th birthday, but still behaving like a naughty teenager:

    Aw, that's a cute pup, solo.

    Twiggy came home last week, took one look at Eddy, and went into heat (he's VERY handsome). Luckily, she wasn't that bad....but Eddy was, well, enthralled with her! She was well enough to get spayed Tuesday, and she's recuperating very nicely.

    Here she is in her Elizabethan collar. She actually doesn't seem to mind having it on at all.

    Tulip - what kind of dog do you have? I've been looking for a dog between 20-30 pounds that my son could train.

    Here's my Zeus - a 12 yo border collie mix therapy dog. He's the other love of my life (my son is the first). But he's definitely my bested buddy:

    I'm glad you finally got Twiggy home!

    I rescued a kitty last week -- it got beat up by the household dog. She's 4 months, a tabby. Broken cheek bone, broken jaw, and injured left eye and nerve to that side of the face. What a trooper! We are having to tube feed her, but she is better and stronger every day.

    When she finally is "home-ready", we'll be needing a home for her! I will post a picture in case anyone local is thinking they are ready to take on a beautiful little girl! She stole everyone's heart at the clinic. The owner was considering euthanasia but we talked them out of it and took ownership of her.

    Somedays my job is GREAT!

    I had a shih tzu when I was a kid (Schnicks, cause that's what he looked like). I hate to say it, because I loved him, but your's is cuter, and looks like an ewok

    LOL..I was just told that today. I hate to brag but she is just so darn cute. I can't help but to smile every time I see her.
