First I’ll start out with some new pictures of Miss Greta that I took today.’
And now a picture of “Ren” our male Chihuahua…that’s another whole story.
Ok so there you have it…our 2 dogs. Ren is our 11 year old male Chihuahua. I acquired him from my son. It was originally his while he was still living at home. So Ren and I kind of got attached. He slept with me every night. Chihuahua’s are a one person dog and I guess I’m it. For example, Ren is good with my husband as well, until he tries to kiss me good night. Then we are greatful he truly isn’t a Great Dane, cause he sounds mighty vicious!
He is truly so sweet. Not the typical Chihuahua. Even the vet is impressed with his disposition. But don’t get me wrong…Ren still thinks he’s a Great Dane! He can hold his own although we do NOT put Greta and Ren together. Greta is so incredibly active and rough as she is still only almost 7months old. And Ren is just an old man!!
Back in the fall of the year, Ren threw his neck out of place and was in quite a bit of pain. It was around the same time that Baron, our male shepherd was put down. So we were distraught, needless to say. We would have to give him water with a teaspoon since he really couldn’t move. So with that being said, we don’t want a repeat of that.Not only to watch the poor dog suffer, but to have all of those vet bills again.
Back to Greta….she is doing great. I never laughed so hard as I so with this dog. She has the funniest personality. No matter what you are doing..she’s gotta be there. If I am doing something at the sink in the kitchen, she has both front paws up on the counter watching every move. However, the other morning, when I went to take her out of her crate, she took her nice bed and shredded it. There was poly fill EVERYWHERE! And she just looked at me with her head tilted, looking cute as if she should be praised!!
We still feed her Eagle Pack but now mix it with cooked ground turkey, brown rice and cottage cheese. We will soon be adding carrots into the mix as well. She is just growing up to be ‘stunning’. Her coat is magnificient! Now all we have to do is get her to listen!!! She is like your typical 2 year old child!
Well, I’ll continue to take more pictures and update you with her progress. So, till next time….
