Good bye Dear Friend

Yesterday I had to say goodbye to my dear sweet Scoutie. After we brought little Maggie Mae home, she started getting sick. I thought it was an upset stomach because she was not happy about the puppy, but it kept getting worse. Called the vet and they gave her some medicine for the stomach. It settled her stomach but she still wasn't eating or drinking much and she was getting weaker and weaker to the point where she was no longer able to walk by herself. We took her to the vet on Monday and they did blood work. The results confirmed that my sweet girl was dying. Scout came to us 10 years ago as a rescue and we loved her from the first moment we met her. Scout would of been 14 years old in June. Wheaten Terriers normal life span is 12 to 13 years. So I know she had a good long life. Doesn't make losing her any easier but I do know that we made the best decision. There was nothing that could be done for her and I just couldn't let her suffer. I take comfort that it was a peaceful passing and she was in my arms when she went to sleep.

Goodbye My Scoutie Girl. You were my bestest friend and I loved you muchly.

Oh Maggie


She is growing so fast. Now 12 weeks old, she is filling out and her personality is coming thru. Maggie is a smart little cookie. She knows her name, she will fetch a ball and then return it to me and drop in my hand. She sits. She comes when you call her and she is such a treat ho. She will fall all over you for a treat. I think she is a piglet disguised as a puppy.

Thanks for stopping by.

MarthaAnneKnits

The Etsy shop is finally open. I still have alot of work to do on it and a ton more items to photograph and get loaded.

The shop was created so that my Mom could sell all the little baby items she has made. I will put some of my hats there eventually.

Please check us out at MarthaAnneKnits.etsy.com and tell me what I need to improve on.

Thanks

Meet Maggie Mae Frazer

This little cutie became part of the our family on Dec 30. Her name is Maggie Mae. Maggie is a West Highland Terrier. She is almost 9 weeks old and weights 4.5 pounds. She has only been part of our family less than a week and we absolutely adore her. Well most of us do.
Even tho it looks like Maggie and Scout, our 13 year old Wheaton Terrier are great friends, Maggie loves Scout much more than Scout loves Maggie. Scout has been extremely patient with the new puppy. I am very proud of her.

Thanks for stopping by.
