    She has all she needs for now, before our move, but I did order a real nice harness and leash for her. Just hope she doesn't grow out of it too fast ;)

    I just put on her first leash to see how she does. It's a collar and leash which I prefer a harness, so won't take her outside with this on. Just practice here in the apartment. But she hasn't taken the leash out of her mouth so far since I put it on. She hasn't chewed one thing up except a piece of paper she found. None of her toys are destroyed so she seems not to be a Tearer, not to be confused with terror, because she can be that while I'm dead in my chair and she insists on doing zoomies for at least a couple minute, and that's a lot of laps!! tired.gif

    Oh that wasn't too bad, she now switch to her fave stuffed toy, a little pink porpoise ;)

    For some weird reason, my hubby won't let us keep a lama in our two bedroom condo. :D

    My last avatar was my last heifer. My hubby would not let me keep it in our house either and it is BIG. Hubbies are so unreasonable.;)

    How is your little Annie puppy doing, @Denise Evans ? I bet she is growing by now.

    Sorry Yvonne, I don't care to answer questions, or talk about anything too personal on this forum. I don't care to except any pm's.

    Hey @Denise Evans. Knowing how we feel about our pets, you’re probably the same so I do hope that Annie is alright.
    I write that because Yvonne was truly genuine about asking about her seeing that the pictures you posted are “so cute”.

    At any rate, I do pray that everything is going to be okay no matter what the problem is and we can all communicate as friends. :)

    I probably misunderstand, but you started this thread about your dog. If something happened here in the meantime, you can PM me, Yvonne or Ken to have it addressed.

    I came here to apologize for being so cold-hearted about your question Yvonne. Then I saw the other replies I hadn't seen yet, just made the tears flow more. I know I don't deserve what God has done for me, all the things in the past He has done, and all the things He's done for me since yesterday.

    The truth is, I had a wake-up call this a.m. about all that happened yesterday, and I saw how much hate I was harboring, and being destroyed by it. I had to give up my puppy because I felt my hatred was effecting her. It was, or would eventually hurt her. I took her to the wonderful lady at Brookings humane society, and explained the truth to her. The very next day after I left Annie in her hands, she wrote me to give me this wonderful letter with a pic of the little girls, and tell me of her new home up the beautiful Chetco River. My friend Jen at SCHS was happy, and that she wanted me to be assured of that, she was so kind to me, I actually think she understood my heart-break as I was just so in love with that little dog. It's all part of God's plan though, I knew it and have had some peace come from it.

    I'm not glad for the things that happened, like the man's life that wasn't spared, and the people still in critical condition, but I am grateful to God for opening my eyes, and taking away the hate I had for people, all people. I don't try to make anyone think I won't hate again, I just hope and pray I will keep my eyes on what is good in this world, and not let hate consume me, and make me sick in my heart, and mind.

    here's the, I feel, the miraculous letter Jen sent me the day after I left Annie in her care. I'll send the photo in a p.m. as I don't want to put the pic of the girls in public. I believe everyone here is ok to show, but I don't have permission to show it publicly, here's the letter though:

    I am SO glad that you found a good home for your Annie, @Denise Evans , and thank you for explaining things to me in the PM. I miss you when you are not on the forum, but know that life is hard for you sometimes, and you just do not feel comfortable with talking about it.
    I sent you a PM back, and Bobby and I will be keeping you in our prayers for God’s continued healing for you.
    You are exactly right, hatred is never a good thing, and hurts us inside more than it does the person we spend the time hating. I am so glad you are doing better.
    Sending Hugs and Prayers !

    This guy is a 'prophet' and explains things about religion that I didn't understand in my younger days. He does say we need to let things go and learn to love. In this case explains why God let 2020 happen.
