Lacey has a cough. It’s not a dry, throaty cough. It’s deep and harsh. The vet called it a wet cough. Since she’s been at a shelter, I thought it might be kennel cough. But the vet thought it might be allergies instead and I’m now giving her an antihistimine, much to my chagrin.

This dog is absolutely the sweetest dog I think I’ve ever been around. And for 8 months old, so well-behaved.
I took her to a restaurant today. We sat on the patio and had lunch. Ok, I had lunch with a friend and Lacey looked around, picked up all the excess crumbs around, got lots of […]
Feeding my new puppy is quite challenging — Lacey is turning out to be a very finicky eater. And her gastrointestinal tract is equally finicky, which makes housebreaking …. well …. even more challenging.

And it takes a lot of consistency from me to keep her from having that […]
I set up her new dog crate in my bedroom at the end of my bed. She slept in it, and we both actually got some sleep. It gave me a lot of peace of mind because I knew she wasn’t roaming all over the bedroom. She woke up about 4am and we went outside […]
I went shopping today at Jimbos — our local scaled-down Whole Foods equivalent and asked the butcher about raw bones. They had just gotten in a rack of ribs for another woman with a dog and she didn’t want them all. So I got Lacy (I think that’s going to be her name) a rack […]
Finally, today I brought home a dog. I am so excited! She’s unbelievably cute — a Brittany Spaniel mix, white with black accents. I’ll be putting pictures up soon. She’s 8 months old and about 25 pounds. She was hit by a car and broke her leg when she was younger and the vet didn’t […]
