Splash learned to say 'No'!

Keeks continues struggling along...

This morning I woke up to find Kikos right eye black and cloudy. So I rushed to the ER.  I am hoping that its temporary and that its just from bumping into something and not the beginning of blindness.  Poor little girl.  Just recently I found out that her back legs have no joints at the ankle and I am in the process of making her braces.  *Sigh* What next?  Hehe, no mater what happens nothing will change her attitude for life! and for food!  My little crippled toothless Keeks! If she can survive Distemper she's got the will power to pull herself through ANYTHING!  Below is a video I made when I was feeling glum today, of the last time she ran a lure course. I will no longer be able to let her run like that.  Gosh she used to love chasing the lure! She gave the big dogs a run for their money. 

Playdate with Jack-Fiesta Island

Jack strikes a nobel pose.

Chihuahua beach adventure

'No swimming today thank you very much!'

'Now that's more like it!' 

'We are determined not to have fun at the beach.'

'WTF just happened to us!'

Thank you for voting for Splash! She is one of the two semi-finalists picked to go to New York to compete for Starpet 2008 with host Montel Williams.  The event will be a fund raiser for Bideawee- an animal welfare group.

Over hill, over dale,
Thorough bush, thorough brier,
Over park, over pale,
Thorough flood, thorough fire,
I do wander everywhere,
Swifter than the moon's sphere;
And I serve the fairy queen,
To dew her orbs upon the green.
