Just when I thought it was safe to take a bath while Merry Myrtle was sleeping.............
Apparently she got into some radioactive materials too!
Okay...gotta go see if Ican find my remote.....MYYYYYRTLE...Have you seen my remote? I do believe either Jasmine o r Snickers ate Michelle's remote! Did they teach you that naughty trick?
She sure does make me smile...a whole lot!
Sally and Alumni Happy Hannah and My Pal Merry Myrtle Mae!
Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!
Sally I am laughing so hard. Sorry, but it is funny.the look on her face in the 2 nd picture is like oops I'm busted! She must have been storing up in her little mind all the things she would get into when you were not looking. Did she eat the bread and peaches? Or just strew them around her bed. Still laughing. Love from, Lori and Ty
TY GUY, Best Black Lab ever! Diagnosed and had amp in January, 2014. Kicked MRSA's butt. Earned his angel wings on April 16, 2014. Run Free my boy and don't forget a shoe. Ty is a proud member of the " April Angels". Ty sent us Daryl, a Tripawd rescue in Sept. of 2016. Daryl is 5 +or -. We are also Pawrents to Chandler, a Border Collie mix who is 15 and 1/2, Lucy, a Corgi who is 7, 2 minis, 2 horses, and a feisty cat named Zoe. Zoe had a non skeletal Osteosarcoma removed in July 2015. No Chemo, she was at least 16. She is going strong although she is now completely blind. She is now close to 20 and her hobbies are eating and sleeping in front of her personal heater.
Hey, just thought of something, you can just tell the electric and phone company you did not pay your bill. Because the dog ate it. Shame you did not have some homework. LOL

Our story: Broke rear leg in June 2013 - non-conclusive results for cancer so leg was plated and pinned. Enlarged spleen in September 2013 and had it removed and was diagnosed with Hemangiosarcoma and started chemotherapy. Became a Tripawd January 8th, 2014 and definitive Hemangiosarcoma diagnosis. Three major surgeries in 7 months and Shelby took them all like a champ only to lose her battle to cancer in her brain. We had 8 amazing extra months together and no regrets. #shelbystrong #loveofmylife
oh my, she made a NEST!! hahahaha.... I am in tears laughing!

Ahhhh Sally. She did it for you. She knew it would make you laugh. I love how you take such great joy in Merry Myrtle's antics.

Oh Sally,
So much for a relaxing bath...
That Merry Myrtle sure can be mischievious when she puts her mind to it. The pictures just had me seriously laughing. The things these youngsters find to get into....peaches and bread...who would have thouhgt that would be of interest.
After straightening up things up I'm sure it was time for some chocolate and wine!!

Hahaha, Sally! she sure wanted to keep you busy on a Sunday. Nice to have some laughs in this forum, after so many sad news lately. These funny moments are what makes motherhood to dogs unique.

Our awesome Golden Boy was diagnosed for OSA in April 2014 in the proximal humerus, front-leg amp on 05/20/2014. Finished chemo (Carbo6) on 07/10/2014. Ongoing treatment: acupuncture + K-9 Immunity Plus ( 3chews) and home-cooked no-grain diet. Stopped Apocaps because of liver issues. Liver issues: controlling altered enzymes with SAM-e and Milk Thistle. October 17: started having seizures. Taking fenobarbital for seizures. April 18: started prednisone.
Yeah that would be something Snickers & Jazz would do (more like Snickers). And yes Snickers ate my remote one she totally destroyed the first one I could glue what she chewed.
I am laughing LOL. I know its not funny but it kind of is. Puppies 2xs here.

Sally,
When I saw this, I had an instantaneous super happy flashback of Polly doing the same thing as an 8 month old pup.......she completely shredded a foot and a half stack of newspapers and magazines for my picking-up pleasure.........All I could do was cover my mouth to keep myself from laughing hysterically, and just look at it all. She was remorseful, and was it a mess, but there was NO way I could yell at her.
Merry Myrtle surely looks pleased with her personal decorating gift to you.....!! Just love her beautiful face !!
Much Love,
Bonnie & Angel Polly
