Getting a dog is on hold for little while I guess. We told them we just couldn't take Clay with all the little ones around here. We have been checking and looking at different sites but not rushing into anything. We have had Cockers before. One with seizure problems and on a little like Clay, but Lady came as a puppy and though their were kids she would just stay back. It took her a year to get use to the family. As we had Ripken (the other dog), his presence was the factor in helping her adjust. She never was far from his side. When he passed she just faded away.
Had a little party for Carson for her 12th birthday yesterday. Her birthday is actually Wed. but being in the week and school it was the only time. She got a good sum of cash and aunt Darla is taking her shopping Sat. She can hardly wait,
Well I this enough for today. Been kind of busy, but with nothing worth reporting. Hopefully I can get my act together and not miss so many days posting.
You have a good night.
Kind of glad really that you didn't take Clay. he would not be comfortable and likely wouldn't adjust.

I can't believe Carson is 12!!!!!!!! My gosh...time has flown out the window! Happy Birthday to her on Wednesday.
I understand your decision my friend, I know the idiosyncrasies of Cocker Spaniels too and sometimes that's just how it is. The big 12! My son turns 13 in April...this is quite a step before moving on to the teens!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to Carson!!
ReplyDeleteI think you made a wise decision on the dog. I am sure you will find one that is perfect for all of you.
Happy Birthday to Carson. I too think you made a wise decision on no dog for now. There may be another opportunity down the road, when the timing might be better.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to Carson. The right dog will come into your life at the right time. Trust me!
