Yeah, been pretty busy. My mom is still having a lot of issues, we finally shipped her off to my grandpa's house hoping he can whip some sense into her. Between dealing with that, work, Chris' health and exercising the puppy, its been a bit hectic. I really just wanted to take the time to post and let you guys know I'm still around and I haven't forgotten you.

I love you guys. heart

Geez you guys are demanding. rofl Fine!

I guess I'll do a Riddle update first. Her knee is doing great! No limping at all on it now, even after a full day of exercise. She's been a little miffed about the whole puppy situation because she is at heart a lazy dog, and with puppy energy they're getting exercised every day. She would rather sleep all day, lol. But I've gotten her back down to a nice trim 58lbs.

A gremlin popped into Riddle's skinny shot:

The pup is also fitting in wonderfully. We're calling him Cantaloupe now because I hate the name Cooper and for some reason Cantaloupe just works for him. rofl I swear his legs get longer every day. His obedience is coming along beautifully, he's got the basics down solid and we've started a beginner's agility class. He picks up on stuff so quick, Border Collie intelligence is insane.

The weasels are thriving in their new house. We've been down to visit a few times, actually, because we get along with the people who adopted them really well. The fuzzbutts have an entire room to themselves, plus free roam time daily. I miss them a lot, but the fact that I can see them whenever I want makes a huge difference in my level of heartache.

We still have Puck and Riot. I haven't gotten more than a couple phone calls, and those were from not great places. My ads keep getting flagged on Craigslist for some reason, so that isn't helping. So far Chris is doing okay with it, we're just being really strict about him not going near the litter boxes.

Riddle looks great in that shot, always nice to see a trim athletic pit. The puppy is soo cute. Have you considered adopting him on a permanent basis or even handling him in agility if/when you're mom takes him back? It's almost like fate, that after Riddle's incident you have such a perfect agility breed enter your life. If it were me I'd offer my mom to handle the dog in some agility trials xd

I'm glad Chris is doing okay with having the cats. Any news on Puck's kidneys? I'm always wondering what your vet thinks about diets for cats in early renal disease. If I could come down there and steal him I would lol

If you came down and stole Dr. Steve I would be forced to hunt you down! So far we're sticking to what we've been doing and Puck's kidneys have stayed stable. So definitely good news on that front.

And we've pretty much decided that Cantaloupe is ours now, although we haven't shared that fact with my mom yet. We've really bonded with him, and my mom seriously had him a WEEK. Personally I don't think she could handle him anyway- he needs a lot more exercise and discipline than she could or would give. So we're hoping she'll see reason.

I do feel kinda bad doing agility with Cantaloupe and not Riddle. sad Chris is handling her in the beginner's class we're in, since there's no jumping or real obstacles, but it'll be sad moving on without her. I do plan on starting Rally at some point with her, because I'm not busy enough already. xD

I know what you mean. At least there is still non impact activities you can do with her. And I'm the same way with Cowboy. I just spent a hundred bucks on ONE of this month's competitions and I'd like to find a place to do dock diving with him and I also want to get some real xcountry skis for skijoring... I keep myself so busy with Cowboy I have like a 2 week wait for any guy that wants to date me rofl I almost bought a nice shirt for going out but after today I realized that's not gona happen. Gonna have to catch the mens attention some other way lol.
