hello evveryone!!!
It's me rita from over the pond, back now after a summer with my canines and my daughter. i did not spend alot of time on the comp cause we were trying to spend as much time outdoors as we could. i did pop in to re-new and look over the hot news, did not post much, so now i just reintro myself incase you forgot me
this is a update on the family...ghost, the pup, now 20 mnths is in OB classes and is very smart, but stubern and seems to not like the teacher much. we had an encounter on a hike this summer, a man tried to strike ghost with a pole while we were walking in the woods, he was very hostile!!! seems that he did this to every dogs he came on. if not for my fast out burst he would have hit her, all she was doing was trotting along the trail. alot more to that i wont get into...so now she is defensive of older hefty men. we are going to take one on one classes to work on that.
nina my 3 1/2 yr old is doing well, her new meds have cut her "pee on me" disorder to mostly nothing, we just had our all-in-one day at the vet, ears, toes, teeth, shots and i had another x-ray of the hips as she is now past three. i was very happy. she still has HD, however...she is in such good condition, that the hip is solid and the ball rests fully into what soccet she has, no degrade in the bone, no sign of arthritis or inflamation...hoo hoo hoo!!! pretty good for the dog that was supposed to be crippled by 2 hu??
and last but still not least.. grand dame Maya...she has lost 7 or her 15 pounds, is now able play and hop about almost like a pup..sept she is 11. she has a fatty tummor on her neck that if it grows much will need to be taken off, it is on the wind pipe, she has lost some sight but not enough to warrent surgery.
my daughter is playing the Bassoon, the hardest instrument in the band, even the teacher knows not how to play and can't help her out. lessons out of class now, special teacher just for her. the big 13 and wants a cell phone...thought the ipod was enough guess not...no boys yet yippy!!! makeup though, can't stand the black heavy circles on the eyes, i'm getting old!!!!weimablessings
yes i have been realy busy, and it has been a realy an adveture,
first was having to rescue nina from the river..she slipped and went under, came up about 10 yrds down in the ragen river, and yep i dove in to retrive her!!! ghost came right behind me. i was able to catch nina and with ghost beside me" who is my fish" we got nina to a fallen tree and climed up. we had to get back in a calmer pond to get back to shore but we made it.
our next one was the hornets...first day of fishing season, dad and kid are gone i have a day all alone just me and the dogs. we have a great hike in the morn, after lunch we are out in the yard doing the cleaning. ghost my hunter is pawing the dirt by a log..she starts snarling and jumping. she has dug up a yellow jacket nest, got stung. i had to get her in the house and medicate her she is allergic!!! i got stung 6 times...after ghost was in house i went out to enter the shed to get the spray...well two more wasp nest were on the door. i had three swarms on me at once, i just grabed the hose that was running and drowned me and all the little buggers. what a day!!!
yes yes we are all ok ...., being in the rocky moutains we spend lots of time in the out doors...many wild and crazy things happen....tha latter are the ones that were the most worth talking about..
more later glad to be back, give me a few days to catch up!!!!
