We're working on getting Lucy something more funct We're working on getting Lucy something more functional for her foot so she can join the others. In the meantime, she got to try out the waves with her mom. She seemed pretty happy. She is so so sweet.

Why is ZoZo so cute even when she's being really a Why is ZoZo so cute even when she's being really annoyingly obnoxious? 
The answer lies in those big brown eyes and amazingly adorable expressive ears. She is truly irresistible and has pushed my limits for naughtiness to a shockingly new high. 
BTW- she is 7 1/2 years old and she's 7 pounds. And she loves to eat!! And her middle name is Marie! Any guesses on who gave her that middle name?

We're in NH and Lucy Lemonade is having a really n We're in NH and Lucy Lemonade is having a really nice time. She's found her chair that looks out onto the lake. She's very comfortable and friendly with our friends. We're happy she feels part of our family. 
Note-At the end of this short video of Lucy on the chair you can see her turn away licking her lips a little. She is very shy at times and does get a little anxious. But she is much improved over the 8 months since she joined our family.

Piglet's first attempt at swimming in the lake! Ho Piglet's first attempt at swimming in the lake!
How'd he do? 
He definitely gets a 15/10 for effort and cuteness!

Nose Up is today's motto as Piggy Lee explores new Nose Up is today's motto as Piggy Lee explores new places and meets new people in New Hampshire. We do have to moderate to keep Piggy and his precious pink sniffer from overloading but the tiny pink man has recharged overnight and is ready to meet his day with his nose held high!! 
We hope to see lots of Piggy friends at the @innisfreebookshop at 3:30 today!

Separation anxiety is very serious, and it is cont Separation anxiety is very serious, and it is contagious. Our group has always leaned towards separation issues, but the addition of Little Lucy Lemonade has pushed the group into new separation territory. 
She literally reminds the other dogs that they can be upset that their mom has left them at home together (with their dad!). That said, she is much better than she used to be!!
Anyone else have dogs who are inconsolable when their person leaves them?

We are in a constant battle to get Dean to eat. He We are in a constant battle to get Dean to eat. He'll even enthusiastically start eating a new food for a few days in a row and then completely turn his nose up at it. The struggle is real and plagues lots of dog parents for many different reasons. 
If your dog's appetite changes, please check with your vet. There are many causes for dogs to change their eating patterns and some are very treatable. It is rare for dogs to suddenly get tired of their food to the point that they won't eat. Usually there is some pathology to uncover with an exam and blood work. 
While some very ill dogs do continue to eat, decreased appetite is a big red flag for most. 
Deanie feels fine otherwise. In fact, he is hungry. But he is so finicky that we have bags and boxes of a variety of dog food brands, flavors, and consistencies. In our house there are always dogs to eat what he doesn't, but it's pretty intense here at feeding time! 
Dean's working diagnosis is IBD. He takes meds to help with vomiting and appetite. I keep an eye out to catch him at times when he WILL eat and I dive right in with his food. Last night I got to bathe my hands in fresh human grade dog food that he's been eating for two weeks. Yesterday he decided he was done with that really expensive one. I have pounds of it in the freezer! Yay for Piggy and the girls! They love it. 
Does your dog have eating issues? Leave a comment with the diagnosis and some of your solutions.

As if xylitol toxicity isn't enough of a widesprea As if xylitol toxicity isn't enough of a widespread problem for dog parents, now xylitol, a natural sweetener found in gums, candies, foods, and medications is being rebranded as Birch sugar. 
Xylitol or Birch sugar is highly toxic to dogs. Please check labels and be aware of foods and meds that contain this natural widely used sweetener. It is safe for people but even a small amount can be deadly to a dog.
If your dog ingests, or you even suspect that they have ingested a xylitol containing substance, consider it a dire emergency and seek veterinary help immediately. 
Inducing vomiting is important right away!
Let your friends know! Share our video or post your own informative video! 
Surprisingly, even with all the publicity this toxin gets on social media and in the news, there are countless dog people who still are not aware. This is a serious danger to dogs! Sadly, the FDA requires NO labeling on human products and foods for toxicity to animals. 
Be aware!!

Lucy Update. Despite multiple surgeries and great Lucy Update. 
Despite multiple surgeries and great effort, Lucy's foot has not healed properly. 
She will need a prosthetic/brace for her foot to allow her to use her leg. 
We are not choosing amputation because while her left foot has healed well enough for her to be a 3 legged dog, she has bilateral luxating patellas (knee caps) so she does benefit from and uses her right leg for support and balance. 
Her foot is somewhat inflamed from being in a bandage so long but that should resolve with a more comfortable removable brace. She had a good long laser therapy session last night. 
Lucy is extremely happy to be able to run in our yard and take walks with the other dogs. She's already part of Piglet's Inclusion Pack and will join Piggy in being an ambassador for adopting dogs with disabilities. 
We love our sweet beautiful adorable Lucy Lemonade. Thank you to everyone who was part of her rescue and medical treatments. And to Favorite Dad for pushing for her to join us. She loves her family and her new life in CT! And we love her to pieces!!
