They’re guessing 5. I’m thinking (hoping?) more like 3-4. But it’s all a guess, she was a stray.

They live such short lives. My Dane only lived to 8 1/2. 
I opted for little this time. This is Smidgen, who will be 3 this month and weighs in at all of 7 lbs. He goes to work with me every day. I’m pretty sure some of my patients only come to their appointments because of him.

Looks like one big happy family. Pets bring so much happiness and demand so little.

Maltese x Pomeranian. Absolutely the best personality dog I’ve ever had – and I’ve had a LOT of dogs.

Dani is staying the weekend at the shelter for observation. they took out a mammary tumor during her spay and she has some extra stitches and healing to do. we pick her up on Monday. say some doggy prayers for the biopsy to come back benign. we went in to visit with her today and she was in great spirits. we had to discourage her from wanting to play too much. obligatory cone of shame photo to follow.

you know, it’s funny. i’ve never been a small dog person. i probably never will. but because i’ve been volunteering at the local animal welfare league the last 4 years, i’ve come to appreciate them more. still not my style, but i enjoy hanging out with them more than i used to. i still worry about playing with them and not wanting to hurt them, i’m just too much of a dog roughhouser, but i can enjoy chilling out in the kennel with them and i never thought i would.

Those eyebrows! I don’t think I’ve met a Havanese, actually. He’s adorable!

Love those big floppy lips – the only thing on a Dane that’s soft! 
I had to go find photos of Tasha, my Dane. Here she is trying to sit in my lap. (Geez, I was young back then! 
)

First night home. Still sporting her cone of shame. She had a tumor removed during her spay, so more stitches than usual. But mentally she’s feeling her oats and ready to rumble, so really having to hold her back to keep her from messing them up.
Pig ear after dinner test tonight.

Sitting here waiting tonight on engravings to finish and thought I’d search for the obligatory “your dog post”. I was not disappointed because there are plenty of pretty “goodest doggos”.
Here are my two fluffer nutters. A husky boxer cross and a pure GSD.
And while waiting I managed to see my GSD actually fully close her eyes and sleep. She’s normally high strung and sleeps alert.
