22 May 07 Dear Guy &
Denise My husband and I are just beginning
our search for a new member for the family. We have done a lot of reading on
Boxers and we believe this is the next right dog for us. We want to visit a
couple of breeders and potentially get our name in for a late summer or fall
puppy, even a little later is fine. Would we be able to arrange a visit and see
your dogs and talk to you? We live just north of We are traveling this summer and do
not to get a puppy just now because we can not take it with us and we do not
want to put it in a kennel during the first few months as we get to know each
other. We have 2 older children, the youngest is 16. We currently have a
Boston Terrier, Blaze, who is almost 15, and we have two indoor
cats. We look forward to hearing from
you. Carrie

17 June 07 Dear Denise and
Guy, First of all, thank you
for opening up your home to us. Carrie and I had a great day and enjoyed
meeting and being ‘loved’ by the family. Your dogs are all beautiful, healthy
looking and have great temperaments. We also appreciated the amount of
information you gave us and were impressed by the genuine affection you have for
your dogs. After talking on our
drive home, Carrie and I decided we would like to become part of the Laymani
family – to say the least we were impressed. As I said, the dogs are beautiful,
but more importantly, each one was well tempered and truly showed love for you
and each other as they bounded about. This is the most important thing for us
and we have been a little discouraged by the continued interaction we have had a
couple of the other breeders. Interestingly, we were even wondering if we “made
the cut” of the selection process as we drove home. Glad we did – we are
excited but I have to tell you, Carrie can hardly sit still – I am wondering if
she is going to make me build a nursery!! I know your site said
no checks but thought you said the $200 deposit was OK that way. Could you
please let us know and also verify the mailing
address. We talked about what we
were looking for. I know we have time, but wanted to give the basics
again. ·
We are definitely
looking for a female, leaning towards brindled but that is not a must as Jazzy
and Sissy were gorgeous as well. ·
A little on the smaller
side (although Thurman was something else!) as this will be Carrie’s walking
buddy and might even play on the agility course. ·
Our home is a little
quieter since the kids are starting to leave the nest, I am sure a boxer pup
will help liven it up. ·
Temperament,
temperament, temperament. For us it’s all about the love (with a little bit of
gorgeous boxer looks on the side). To be honest, your recommendation of
personality fit will take precedence over looks of the puppy (I can’t imagine a
bad looking pup from your family). Thanks again for
everything. Dan and
Carrie

18 June 07 Dear Denise and
Guy, Thanks for the e-mail
and all the information you supplied! Can’t wait for the puppies to be born!
However, for you August is going to be very, very busy! The check for $200 was
just put in the mail, so you should receive it by the end of this week.
Thanks again and please
keep in touch. Dan and Carrie

26 June 07 Denise and
Guy, Looks like the weather
has been great for getting out although I think the streams and rivers have to
be on the lower side with the lack of rain. Carrie and I have been
playing around with potential names (kind of the things parents-to-be do) and
have a couple we like, will probably wait until we see the pictures to make sure
the right one fits. One we are just sitting on right now is Luna (short for
Lunetta). We are playing with the astronomy theme as brother Blaze’s formal
name is Blazing Star, kind of want to have a little bit of legacy. Besides,
flows nice with the Laymani name. What do you think? Anyways, we have a ways
to go and are still coming up with names. Glad to hear that you
have more visitors coming, I am sure they will be impressed as well by the ‘pack
of love’ – they are all tongue and nubs! We have been sending pictures of your
kids to members of our family so they can see. My Mom’s already excited as we
have had dogs all our life. Talk to you
soon. Dan and
Carrie

26 June 07 Denise, Hi! I’m glad you like
Luna. Dan came up with that one, so right now I’m just letting the name settle
in. Sometimes a name sits for a while and you want to change it. But, so far I
like it. Yes, we looked up Italian girl names and that was one of them! Yes,
we did see the new homepage and it does have a feeling of nostalgia, love the
black and white photos ( it really does send the message: a young boy playing
happily with his puppy). Has anyone else commented on
it? Sounds like you had fun
kayaking last weekend. It was nice weather, but we do need the rain. Is your
area in a drought? We are. We did kayaking last summer down the Little Miami.
It was my first time and I wasn’t sure if I was going to like it. I thought I
did pretty good for my first time! Just made sure I stayed out of the way of
other people. Well take care and
we’ll continue to keep in touch throughout the summer. Love all the updates you
are providing! Have fun playing with Sophie and take care of the moms- to-
be. Carrie

7 July 07 Denise and
Guy, Hello and just a quick note to see
how everything is going. Are your girls progressing well with their
pregnancies? We’re getting excited about the new puppy. We’ve recently
purchased a crate, which she can use as she grows. In addition to some toys,
new leash, etc. Also, made her a nice soft fleece blanket. So… getting ready.
Almost done reading Boxers for Dummies, which is a good read and a bit humorous
too! We have shown the pictures of your boxers to our family and Dan has shown
them also to his co-workers and everyone thinks that they are
gorgeous. Hope you are relaxing and enjoying
your summer, as I know next month will be extremely busy! We are actually
getting ready to go on vacation soon to the east coast, so if you e-mail us with
updates we might not be able to respond right away. We’ve been thinking about it and we
like the name Luna( Lunetta Laymani). A little Italian boxer
girl!! Anyways, keep the updates coming and
take care. Carrie
|

5 August 07 WoooHooo!!! What great
pictures. Carrie was like a kid
at Christmas this morning. What a great start to the
day. We know you will be
VERY busy over the next few days, please don’t worry about
responding. Take care of yourselves
as well as the little ones. Dan and Carrie |
|
|
26 August 07 Denise and
Guy, Thank you to you two also for the
Saturday visit. Glad you enjoyed the wine, you deserved it! We got home
safely, although ran into a bunch of heavy rain showers. I’m sure you got it at
your house, because the rain was moving in your direction. Anyways, we loved
meeting all the puppies and seeing the moms again. We felt comfortable with
Luna and I think she felt the same way too; although all the puppies loved being
cradled and getting that extra TLC! Dan has looked at his work and travel
schedule and we have 2 dates which would work out for us as far as picking Luna
up and taking her to her new home. We have available Sunday,September
16th, which we already talked about with you, and the other day is
Saturday, the 22nd. So, let us know which one would best for you and
then we can make arrangements for the big day( also have to make kennel
arrangements for Blaze). Also, we have a pet store in town
which sells the EVO, so we’re thinking of going with that food. Either way,
Luna will be put on some good quality food. Thanks
Again! Carrie and
Dan

3 September 07 Denise and
Guy, Hi! How is your weekend? Able to
get out and relax? How is Luna doing? Last we heard the puppies were being
introduced to a ball, another new texture for the babies. The pictures we took
last weekend are on our screen saver now, but I’m sure she looks a little
different now. Have you placed any more of the puppies? And, how are the moms
feeling? Well, if you have any recent pictures or upates we’d love to see
them. Luna is all set for her first vet visit here, she go in the day after we
pick her up. Dan has attached a couple of pictures from our
visit. See you in a couple of
weeks. Carrie |

On September 6, this puppy weighed 5 pounds. The following photos are from bath time. |

6 September 07 Denise and
Guy, Oh, she’s so cute and
she looked thrilled! When you had her standing up I had to laugh, it looked
like she was taking a shower. And, wow!! How she has grown since we last saw
her! Amazing. Well, we’re counting down till next Sunday. How mobile is she
now? Does she move quick and does she have a preference for certain toys?
Trying to get the house ready for her, just need a baby gate so she doesn’t go
downstairs to the finished basement. Keep in
touch! Carrie

17 September 07 Denise and
Guy, We had a really good night with
Luna. Things are going as smoothly as we can hope
for. She is already crying when she wants
to do number 2 (has only done it once in the house as she had not trained Carrie
and I yet). She has found a place outside in the mulch she loves as a pee and
poop yard. She only woke up twice during the
night. We played with her quite a bit and I imagine she was a bit tired form
the ride. She slept with one of her smell goods and a new rope toy she likes to
tug on. Blaze was doing OK until this little
bundle of energy wanted to do everything he does. You should see Luna’s nub
move when she spies him coming around the corner! The cats are warming up to her as
well and this has really amazed us as they normally hide for many days. I guess
she is just not threatening (yet!!!!). We attached the picture from
yesterday. We will keep you posted on the news and any New Adventures of
Luna….& Blaze….& Hallie…..& Amy. The Proud New
Parents, Dan and
Carrie

22 September 07 Hello, Thought you would an update on
Luna! First, she is training us well. She
has only pooped in the house once since we brought her home. She has a specific
bark and has taught us to listen. She is still peeing a lot and was squatting
quite a bit even after peeing which didn’t seem normal. We took her back to the
vet and found out she had a little vaginitis so she is on puppy antibiotics. It
is making a big difference. She probably goes about 70% of the time outside – a
smart little girl. The vet says she is very pretty (we all know that) and she
has a slight umbilical hernia which should retreat on its own. Other then that,
worm free and looking good. In true puppy fashion, she is
exploring everything around her. She approaches, bounds, paws and finally the
teeth go on it. She loves to run outside, you can see the picture where she
found our ornamental grasses and she thinks they are keen. We can’t wait to get
her second set of shots so she can go to puppy “training” which is a
socialization course Carrie has found. You can see the picture of her with
Blaze, every time she sees him her nub goes hypersonic, but Blaze really just
wants to sleep. The cats are doing fine with her, they stay out of her way when
she has free time in the house, but will sniff her in her cage when she is quite
or sleeping. No hissing or anything! She gets us up about 2-3 times at
night to go outside, but then comes right back in and goes to
sleep. The punch line, we love her and
couldn’t feel better about how she was brought into this world –
THANK-YOU. We know 2 more leave this weekend so
you will be busy, no need to write, just thought you would like to see the
‘first to fly the nest’. Dan and
Carrie

29 September 07 Denise, Thanks for writing back
and letting us know about the puppies. I’m sure things are winding down for you
with all the puppies leaving etc. Luna is doing great! She’s a very smart
puppy too! No joke, I can have her come to me and with the hand signal and sit
command she’ll sit. Always gets good food treats during these times. She
continues to grow and explore the house. Finally figured out yesterday that she
can climb all the stairs to our 2nd floor, but not able to come back
down. We give her a lot of free floor time after she’s been outside to potty,
which is progressing very smoothly. She’s actually sleeping longer at night and
learning to hold herself longer. I usually get up around 3:00 am to take her
out, big improvement from last week. She wasn’t crazy about her crate at first,
so we move it out to the kitchen area in the daytime and bring it back to the
bedroom at night. It’s been working well, but when she’s unhappy she gets very
vocal!! She goes to the vet on
Thursday for her next set of shots. The vet thought she was beautiful and very
cute as did everyone at the vet office. There’s just something about a boxer
puppy’s face! I will post one of your business cards in their
lobby. Two weeks from today
she starts her puppy education classes which I’m looking forward to. I think
she’ll enjoy getting out more and playing with other pups. The only question we
have is she likes to bite during play and sometimes she bites too hard. I
usually have a toy in hand to offer but sometimes that doesn’t work. Do you
have any suggestions on how we can handle this? We try saying “ouch” loud and
walk away but then she bites your ankles. Other than that she’s a sweet dog,
loves to be held too. I’m loving that because I know it won’t be too long
before I can’t do that. We are really enjoying her. Thank
you!! Write
back. Carrie

10 October 07 Dear Guy and
Denise, It was great getting the e-mail last
night w/ al the puppy updates, both current and past puppies. It was neat
hearing how Luna’s brothers and sisters are doing too! Sounds like they’re all
adjusting. She got her 2nd set of
shots last week, Oct. 4th, and weighed 10.8lbs at the time. She is
growing so fast, doesn’t look like that little baby anymore. She’s got long
legs. She’s also been started on her flea control, frontline plus and
interceptor for the heartworms. Doctor told me to wait until her 3rd
set of shots before I take her for walks on the street. But, she walks on a
leash fairly well in the yard. As soon as you start to leave familiar territory
or if she hears another dog bark or the geese were flying over our yard early
this morning she gets scared. New sounds and sights!
She had to go back on antibiotics
again, a week ago, because her infection returned. This time she is on pill
form of amoxicillin, stronger dose this time compared to the 1st
time, and is on them for 2 week duration. I knew something was off because she
completely had no bladder control and was bleeding a little too. Called the vet
right away and since she’s been on the meds she’s been doing ok. Had a couple
of pee accidents in the house over the past 2 days. We take her out often,
because if she’s engrossed in play she’ll get up and go. I will watch her
closely after she’s done with her meds to make sure the infection is gone for
good. Luna starts puppy classes this
Saturday, had her kennel cough and is ready to mingle with the other pooches. A
couple of young boys that live on our street love to come over when she’s
outside playing, you should see her little tail go! It’s cute. And, she enjoys
chasing our neighbor’s cat! Training at home is coming along well, definitely
knows sit now and currently working on the down with the food. She is a food
motivated dog! Also has an excellent appetite, 3 times a day, ½ cup each meal.
She has really fallen into a routine around here. She currently is sleeping
through the night too. Yeah!! She likes our other pets, too much for Blaze
though. She jumps on him while he’s sleeping and it really scares him. If she
becomes too much, she’ll either go to her crate or we’ll move Blaze. She plays
alongside our one cat, the calico. They will chase the laser light together.
Again,Hallie lets Luna know when enough is enough. Well, that’s about it here.
Enjoying her very much. We will continue keeping you posted on Luna
milestones. Take care. Luna kisses to all the boxers and Sissy and
Duke! Carrie

19 October 07 Guy and
Denise, Hi! I just viewed your website and
saw the last 4 puppies, how cute. Anybody interested in them? I saw them
playing outside on the porch stairs and w/ the pumpkin. It looked like they
were having fun. And, I also saw your new female additions, how pretty! Diana
is a dark beauty! I don’t know how you two do it, but I’m sure you’re getting
busy again! And, I only have 1 boxer! Yes, she keeps me busy. Dan has been
traveling so much that Luna and I have a lot of time together. I’m learning
much about her and her personality, her likes and dislikes. She started her
puppy classes last Saturday and she enjoyed getting to play with another
classmate. Although, the class is very small, only Luna and a 5 month old
miniature pinsher. The teacher wishes that there were more in the class, but we
end up getting more individualized attention. We have exercises for the week
to practice. We also started taking small walks up the street. She resists at
time which is normal so I always have good treats in my right hand to lure her
along. I like to keep getting her out and seeing and hearing new things. It’s
good for her! And every where we go I get comments on how cute she is.
She goes back to the doctor on
Thursday for her 3rd set of shots. I believe she weighs close to 14
lbs now; she is growing big and strong. She finished her antibiotics for her
vaginitis on Monday and the next day she started with the repeated squatting
when outside to pee, and having accidents in the house again. Called the dr.
that evening and told me to come in to get a tapering dose of the amoxicillin.
She’s being tapered down now and then will go to a pill once every other day.
At that time I have to watch her to see how she does with this dose. I’ve been
on the internet researching about this in puppies, and I’ve read lots of
different views, such as diet changes, urine ph, etc. My dr. also said that
he’s seen this condition in Dobermans, and also said it could be related to
hormonal changes in the females. I would probably have to let Luna go through
her 1st heat ( I guess she’d be 8 months??), and it should resolve
itself. So, I wouldn’t be able to get her spayed at 6 months. In your
experiences, have any of your female dogs or puppies had this? Do you know if
diet would make a difference? Currently, she’s still on a 50/50 mix of EVO
small bites and Purina puppy chow. I know puppy chow has the grains in it while
the EVO is protein rich and grain free. Should I go straight EVO? I welcome
your advice if you have any information regarding
this. Have a nice weekend and look forward
in hearing from you again. It was also interesting to know that some of Luna’s
brothers ( Armstrong and the boys, Bishop and Reverend) live in the Columbus
area. I think the 2 live in Sincerely, Carrie

5 November 07 Dear Denise and
Guy, It’s been a while since we last
spoke. How are you? We’ve been very busy and Luna keeps us on our toes! Never
a dull moment with her! She’s been to the dr. twice since I
last spoke to you Denise on the phone. The first one was to have her urine
tested which came back very clean! That’s good. She will be kept on a low dose
of amoxicillin daily until this vaginitis resolves. I asked about drug
resistance and he said it’s a very low dose so she’ll be ok. In addition, I
have to give her douches twice a week. Never thought I’d ever have to do this
to a dog! I cradle her like a baby, distract her with treats and administer.
This will also help with any irritation she may be having. I asked again about
the spaying issue and the senior vet at the hospital said puppies with her
condition do well if you spay at 6 months. So, she’ll be spayed on time versus
going into a first heat. Her 2nd visit was her 12 week check and
everything looks beautiful. She weighed 18 lbs at the
time. Her training is also progressing
well too. We’re getting into loose leash walking ( yeah right!!) My gosh,
encouraging a 20 lb boxer to come for walking when they don’t want to can be
difficult. She’s strong! My left arm got very sore from her pulling and
resisting. So, our teacher recommended the gentle leader for her. More
improvement with it today. It’ll take time. We had to go this method due to
her neck becoming so red. Well, that’s about all for now. We
will continue to keep in touch. Anybody interested in the rest of the
puppies? Have a nice
Thanksgiving. Carrie and Dan

19 November 07 Dear Guy and
Denise, It was great to hear from you and
the update on all your dogs, sounds like it’s been very busy around your house.
Getting ready for more puppies! I wish the two of you a nice holiday with your
family. Dan’s parents are coming this Wednesday and they’re bringing their 1
yr. old shi-tzu. Oh boy, Luna will have some fun!! She is doing really well. Luna has
2 more puppy classes left then she’ll advance to either the intermediate level
or go back to beginner. The teacher will let me know Saturday. She’s very
smart and learns quickly, you just have to be consistent with her. If she goes
back to beginner it’ll be a lot of repetition which for her will be a plus. We
go to classes every Saturday evening and she loves playing with her 2
classmates, esp. the chocolate lab puppy. They were both born right around the
same time too. OK, here are the Luna
Accomplishments: Weight: 25 lbs, we get so many
compliments on her and how pretty her coat is, etc. She still has her
distinctive white stripe down her nose. Likes: Luna still loves to be rocked
in a rocking chair (our 2 kids think I’m crazy!, but she likes
it!) Soft, fleece
blankets Car rides and
walks Dislikes: Cold, frosty grass in the
early AM Any sudden, loud
noises Favorite Toy: plush moon-shaped
squeak toy (go figure, a Luna for Luna) Chewing on her
“bully stick” Favorite Activity: Chasing a laser
light w/ our cat, Hallie ( it’s hilarious). Doing laps in our great room and
leaping over any objects or pets (Blaze) that are in her way. She might be good
for agility when she gets older. Tricks: Luna will give her paw to us
when asked (looks like she’s shaking our hands and learned it in a day). She
also sits, stays and goes down. Proudest Moment: The first one was
the day we picked her up to bring her home, such an exciting
day! Her
teacher complimented us on the progress that Luna has made in her puppy
classes. Embarrassing Moment: At times, when
she meets new people who really love dogs, or when meeting a new dog, she loses
control of her bladder and pees everywhere Well, that’s it for now. Have a
nice, relaxing holiday! Dan and
Carrie

20 November 07 Denise and
Guy, Carrie did not send you
the best picture of all, Luna licking my face off!! If you enlarge the picture
you can actually see the slobber on my face. The other thing she did
not tell you was we have given her a nick name of ‘Gremlin Girl’. When she is
playing hard or getting tired she starts making a high growling sound which
reminded us of a gremlin. We laugh hysterically and it only encourages her to
do it louder. Dan

3 December 07 Denise and
Guy, Thanks for the e-mail
and we’re looking forward to the big puppy update. We still visit your website
because we like to hear what you’re up to and who’s next to give birth. I guess
Zena will be ready in a couple of weeks. Again, busy time for you although, not
like the month of August! I hope everything goes smoothly, as this is her first
time with you. We are doing well. I
can’t believe another holiday is closely approaching. Our daughter comes home
from college on Friday,that will be nice. Over the next 2 weeks Dan will be
doing a lot of traveling. Luna is doing great! She had her 4 month shots last
week, so she’s all set until February when she’ll get her rabies and spaying.
She weighed 27.8 lbs at last week’s check. She’s pottying well too, going to
the door when needs to go outside. She is really beautiful. Luna graduated
from puppy school on Saturday and will start her next level this Wednesday.
Training her has been relatively smooth, she’s smart and learns quickly. Our
big thing now is teaching her not to go near the Christmas tree and so far,
we’re having success. Well she’s sleeping now, just came in from outside. It’s
also very cold today. I try to get in at least 2 good walks a day with her
because she has so much energy to spare! Even got her a fleece lined jacket,
because she shivers in the cold. She walks proudly on the streets modeling her
new coat! Anyways, continue to
keep in touch as we will too! Carrie

19 December 07 Congrats on the new
arrivals! With all the love you guys gave 17, those 4 are going to be soooooo
spoiled. You should be getting a
Christmas card in the next day or so with a picture of Luna & Santa. Santa
may look like he was just mugged but all that really happened was he was loved
to death by a Laymani Boxer. As roughed up as Santa looks, he and his helper
elves could not stop talking about how cute she is and how much she just loves
people. G-Ma and G-Pa Tessum should be proud!. We love looking at the
updates, Luna looks a lot like Jack – go figure. We had to finally throw out
Luna’ bring home toy today as she tore out the innards. You could say she loved
it to death. She has a toy box full of other goodies she can choose from and
she loves each and every one of them. It’s fun to watch her dig though the box
looking for the toy she has in mind. Hope your Holidays
return as much love as you give to the pups. Dan and
Carrie

29 December 07 Thought you would enjoy seeing some
of the pictures as Luna has grown. I have sent smaller pictures so as not to
overload the mailbox. Let me know if you want any of them larger. Also, the
only picture that doesn’t show the age is “The Whole Thing”. This is when she
was 10 weeks old. Currently she weighs 35 pounds and
is about 20” at the shoulder. She thought the tape measure was neat so the
height is approximate! Also we ordered the Nuvet today, she
has been throwing up a little so we thought we would try this vitamin verses
what she has been taking as it has some ingredients meant to settle the
stomach. We will let you know how it works out. Happy New Year! Along with Blaze, Luna, Amy and
Hallie – the whole fur family. |

4 January 08 Guy and
Denise, Thanks for the e-mail
and saw the pictures on your website. They look nice! Answering your question,
Luna currently eats 3x/day and she eats 1 cup Purina puppy chow w/ ½ cup EVO
small bites at each meal. The times she’s thrown up after a meal, I believe
it’s due to eating quickly. It’s been a week since she last got sick, she’s
doing well. A couple of episodes were at night, hasn’t had any in a while.
Anyways when I’m done with this bag of EVO I’m going to go to the larger bite
size since she has adult teeth in place. Are we feeding her too much at a
meal? I do know that when she’s not interested in the food or has had enough
she’ll walk away from her bowl. Her bowls are on a low platform too. And, next
month when she turns 6 months I will drop down to 2 feeds per
day. She’s doing well.
Sleeping now. Just got in from a nice long walk,and playing Frisbee in the
snow. Luna loves the snow! She also had her 1st day at doggie
daycare. She’ll go for 1 day a week to socialize and interact with other dogs,
which she needs because Blaze’s health has not been good lately and she loves to
PLAY!! Her evaluation went well and the owner said she listens
well. Well, got to go. I
appreciate any input on the diet. Have a nice weekend. How are the
puppies? Carrie
|
|
|
4 January 08 Guy and
Denise, Thanks for writing back
so quickly and with the info on the diet. EVO might not be suited for her
because I do know when she’s on It ( mixed w/ her puppy chow) her stools are
looser. I’m almost done with this bag. We just started her on the Nu-Vets, so
we’ll see how she does. No, you didn’t tell me
about the psychic that called you. I know you get lots of calls and e-mails
regarding your puppies, however I’m sure you never got a call like that one!
That’s too bad about Funan’s family that wanted him but the more I read about
the situation I don’t think he would have been happy there. You made the right
choice. You have to look after your babies! Anyways, Funan is having a blast
with all those boxers around; he’s one lucky puppy! And, your new pups, do you
have reservations for them? We saw pictures of them, how cute. The fawns are
big! Are the puppies bigger if it’s a smaller litter? And Jazzy’s expecting
soon! Hopefully, the whelping won’t scare her this time, she’s a pro now.
You’re going to have puppies all over the place. Anyways, enjoy your
weekend. Keep in touch. Carrie |

17 January 08 Guy and
Denise, Hello, hope all is well. Last I was
on the web site the puppies looked adorable in their new photos and it looks
like a few have future homes. That’s great. Luna is doing well, weighs 38 lbs
now. She was also spayed yesterday. Just brought her home and she’s resting
quietly. Despite her incision she could still get a little hula action in.
Yesterday was also a hard day, because our Blaze had to be put to sleep. He
lost so much weight, he had no control of his functions and was refusing food
and water. We think he had a stroke on Tuesday, because he was having
difficulty walking and holding his head up. Luna was very gentle with him
Wednesday morning before she had to go to the vet hospital. So, last night was
very quiet and sad in the house. Well, hopefully Luna’s spay will
resolve her vaginitis. She’ll remain on her antibiotics for at least another 2
weeks and then we’ll get her off of them and see what happens. Keep in touch,
we enjoy the e-mails! Take
care, Carrie
