    We have a new dog

    We welcomed 'Snitzel' to our family as of last night. The poor girl is a mixed breed of J.R. Terrier and something else. We found her in the backyard this morning.....full of fleas and ticks........and literally starving to death.

    My b-day was wednesday so I took some b-day funds and bought the bowls, food, toys...etc......the petstore took advantage of my emotional state of describing this dog.

    But it's worth it........I plan to fatten her up.....to a healthy state.......only right now you can count her ribs.

    It must be fate.........we lost our kitty Smokie almost a month ago, after 11 years........so God must knew we needed something and sent this stray.

    BTW.....my 5 year old came up with the name. I have no clue where it came from..........

    I never knew I was a dog-lover til now.
    Tons of support,
    Jaime

        Happy (belated) Birthday, Jaime!

        I like the name Snitzel. Very unique.

        Our little girl dog passed away 8 months ago, and I'm so ready to have a dog again! My home just isn't complete without the pitter-patter of paws!

              I love the name. Snitzel is the name of a dish that my mother used to cook for dinner. It is a fried hamburger patty covered with a fried egg and smothered with chili. YUMMMMMMMMY

              I already did this on another thread but I want to do it again.

                  Sharon,
                  That dish sorta sounds awful..........but those are ones, if given a chance, that become a favorite. Might have to branch out someday!

                  Thanks for the birthday wishes!

                      How wonderful! For you and the dog, actually. You are lucky to have found each other.

                      BTW, when we got our first dog, our then 9-year old came up with the name, "Frisco," and even she doesn't know why. She didn't know it was a nickname for San Francisco, and she'd never been there, anyway. But now we can't imagine him with any other name. So, Snitzel works for me!

                      Do you have pictures yet?
                      Je vous souhaite de la joie, de la bonne santée, et tout ce qu'il y a de bon dans la vie.
                      Wishing you happiness and good health, and all the best out of life.

                      Peace, Carolyn
