I have nothing creative to share!! Meet Bella, our rescue puppy. She is a mini daschund, which we have two of already, although she will be much smaller than them! She currently weighs a mean 1 1/2 pounds - LOL! The vet says she does not expect her to get any bigger than about 5-6 pounds so she will be tiny. She is a rescue dog....seems she has a fracture in her left jaw that is very painful and made it difficult for her to eat. I say made because since I took her to the vet, had her put under, and they readjusted her AND gave her pain meds, she is doing really really well! She is now eating some soft foods, and is just a gentle and loving little thing!!! I want to go and step on the head of the lady who did this to her, but Tony won't let me!!!
She is only seven weeks old....and yes, I am very sleep deprived! I must be crazy getting another dog, but hey, at least now I know she has a good home and will be safe and happy!! And, I mean, look at that face, could you resist?! She was definitely not something I planned for, but here she is and she is now a member of our family.
Although, introducing her to the other dogs is a very slow process under the vets directions. So far so good, although my male and female doxie still don't know what to make of her. Here is a pic of her and Clyde under my very close and watchful eye. He has been pretty good, but has bared his teeth at her a couple of times. Tony is totally in love with her! Me too, and the kiddos went to the vet with me where we sat for five house while they figured out what was wrong with her and how to fix her! So, it has been an emotional couple of days, but I think she will make it!
Here is a pic of her when sleeping - this is her favorite place on me to curl up although usually she has her nose in my ear - LOL! She also loves to lay on my chest. I just love her! I will be back on Monday with something creative to share - I hope all of you have a wonderful weekend!

Bless Bella's little heart. I can tell she doesn't feel well just from the picture. My sister rescued many..which stay outside but the runt almost died and had to be brought in and has special care. Packer ( his name ) sleeps in the exact place as Bella. I think they must feel close to their mother in that spot. Keep us updated on her condition. She is adorable.
Alex Bella is so beautiful, i want her! I cant believe anyone would want to hurt any animal or any person, but look at hereven if one was a bully she would melt the hardest of hearts. If tony wont let you go kick butt ill go and have words. I cant stand violence especially to those who are so defenseless such as animals and children. But i think your family are wonderful for being able to provide her with the loving home she so desperately needs.I hope she gets stronger and starts to eat more, she is a sight for sore eyes! xx
Oh my gosh Alex she is soooo sweet! Did you name her Bella from Twilight???!!!!
Ohhhhh, she is so precious! I love her and wish I could steal her away!
Oh Alex Bella is absolutely beautiful and she now has a good and kind family to love and cherish her the way she should be. I would come and stamp on that awful women's head with you how can people be so cruel. I bet you any money as tiny as she is she will end up being the boss!! Good luck and many years of happiness. Sue :o)
Bella is just too darn cute! I almost cried reading about her story. Enjoy her...even if you are sleep deprived! :0)
What a darling little dog. It almost tempts me, but not quite! I'm glad she has found such a loving home. I suspect she will become the darling of the household, if she isn't already! Keep us updated with pictures. She is a cutie!
Oh my goodness, Alex! She is adorable! I will go with you to kick some butt, because anyone that would hurt a dog deserves to have their butt kicked. Geez, that makes me angry!
You spend all of the time that you need with that sweetheart! How lucky for her that you found her and brought her home. CUTE!
She is so sweet and good for you to rescue her!! We are also thinking of rescuing a dog sometime soon. Hugs!!
Alex you are a doxie angel! What an amazing bond the two you have already! She (Bella)is so precious! It is so sad that eveil people harm helpless dogggie, it is really sad.
Good luck with the wee sweet pea! Puppy hugs, Deb
she is freakin' cute!!! i'm all about rescue dogs...and i'm all about hurting people who hurt animals, so i'll be right over to help you beat the abuser! >"< congrats on your new dog!! we need more people like you...
oh my goodness! squeeaall! I love Bella - so sweet, it's wonderful you rescued her from that dumb lady.
She is so so cute, Alex! TFS the story! It's so good of you to rescue the little thing!
aaaawwwwwwwwww, totally adorable, hope she settles in well!
Ahhh Alex...she is just adorable! I can't belive someone abused her...it really breaks my heart! Kudos to you for taking her in...I'm sure she'll be loved! {SMILES}
Oh my goodness, look how tiny she is! Wow! She's very lucky to have you and your family now to love her!!!
I remember introducing our third dog to the bunch...and I'm sure that the other two just hoped he was VISITING and would leave any minute...lol
Such adorable pictures!!

OMG! Alex, Bella is SO TINY! I wish I could just hold her and cuddle her up! You know I adopted a doxie too and I thought she was tiny at 8#! I'll look forward to hearing more stories about Bella and the other pups...with photos too, of course!
What a sweetie Bella is - I can't imagine anyone wanting to hurt something so sweet as her!! So happy that she has found a home with you though!! Have fun spending time with Bella, and don't worry about missing your stamping time - Miss Bella needs you!
The puppy is a cutie...... I don't know how any person could hurt an animal... but then again, how and why do humans hurt other humans????
Good luck with your baby
What a CUTIE Pie...and good for you for getting a rescue pet. People that abuse animals and children are the lowest forms of life in my eyes..thanks for sharing!!
OMG she is the cutest little thing! How horrible that someone did that to her. Thankfully she found a loving home with you and your family.
I will go with you and step on that womans head and tell her a thing or two. I hope she got reported for animal crulity. How people can hurt an animal is beyond me. These kind of people have some serious problems. That is wonderful that you rescued her. Traci
Awwwwwwww....Bella is such a cutie, no wonder you could not resist her Alex. Thank God you guys found one another....she truly is in a loving home now.
hugs

Oh My Gosh!! She is just the Sweetest!! and it is So Wonderful of you and your family to rescue her.
Our Buddy's mother was a rescue dog ...when she was a yr old.(2 of her legs were broken and she walked with a limp)...It's drives me batty just thinking about it!!...Hugs, Ila
That is the cutest face! Bless you for giving her a loving home. I hope she's doing well.
You are such a wonderful person! What a sweetie that little girl is! Who wouldn't fall in love with her!? Bless you for taking her in.
Oh my gosh she's so tiny!!!! My huge ole beasts look ginormous compared to her!!! LOL I hope she continues to heal and meshes well with your other furbabies!!
Oh, you are my favorite type of lady....a dog rescuer. My sister Bonnie told me about you and I have recently rescued a doxie/chihuachihua mix who has lost all of his hair due to a parasite....I have worked around the clock for 2 1/2 months getting him cleared up. I have had to feed him 8 times a day....etc...sleep deprived is my middle name, but oh how sweet the warm, cuddly rewards.
