There is no such thing. These were for a work party.

Aw, dang. I didn't think there would be paleo sticky buns, but hope springs eternal.

Good morning Cafe, old school puppy raiser. Truth be told if a girl pup if it stops it pees.
If a boy see puppy girl.

It was so wet and dense I didn't get the garden tractor 10' out of the barn before the blower chute and the augers were cemented in. No amount of clog clearing would get me further.

It stinks!! What kind of tractor and blower?

Ended up moving the snow with the Mahindra.

But that would be better for Widget to brood chicks in, right?

I think so. It makes mums job of getting the chicks mobile and in and out of home so much easier.

I'm at Cornell. Again.
I left at 1 to go to the work party, picked up DH afterwards, ran errands and was home at 5 to find Piper standing in blood with her front left leg stuck between the frame and gate of her puppy pen. I totally lost it.
I got her free, wrapped her in her blanket and then attempted to get DH back in his coat while he continued to laugh because he just didn't understand at all what was going on and thought my sobbing was laughter.
I drove to my sister's house and asked her to help me. Her husband took DH home and my nephew went up to my house to feed and potty Bella and Skittles while sis and I went to the hospital.
The doctor just spoke to me and said Piper did not break her leg. The blood came from a nail on her back foot where she must have been struggling to free herself. She has soft tissue damage to the leg, it is swollen and she is favoring it but weight bearing. She's coming home with pain meds and restricted activity.
My family didn't even know I got a puppy. I hadn't told them yet. I was going to surprise them.

I’m sorry - I hope Piper heals quickly.

 

[Mtn Margie]

She will heal quickly, DL, she is a puppy, Hugs to you!

 

[Sally PB]

So sorry that happened, DL!

 

[DobieLover]

That's what the vet said.
She was dehydrated and very hungry by the time we got home. She had a HUGE pee and wolfed down her late dinner and readily went into her crate to go to sleep. I just gave her a dose of her pain med.
To remind me just how crappy my life can get, I hit a deer on the way home from my sister's house. It ran out from my neighbors yard so I wasn't going very fast at all. Maybe 20 mph. It ran off and I didn't see huge damage on the front of my car but then again, I didn't look too hard. Just don't have the energy to care about that at the moment.
