Too cute! I just realized how long her tail is. It has grown a bit ahead of her body LOL.

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.

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.

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, to think we all will hopefully get the honor of watching adorable Merry Myrtle grow !! She is just a baby fledgling and will certainly find her outer grown-up voice! I am giggling at how much she acts and even sounds like my black Lab pup, Pearl right now.......although "little" Myrtle is a bit larger than my Pearl! I want to smoosh-kiss her on her nose !! laughing

Much Love,
Bonnie & Angel Polly

I agree, Bonnie !!! We get to see her grow! Is it rude ask how much she weighs? LOL 

And I didn't notice it before ... water bottle or vodka bottle?!! 😉

Yay Mrytle.  I love that puppy bark.  At least it does sound like a big dog bark.  Snickers has a yappy bark.  I call her my yappy pup sometimes.    She just has a higher pitched bark.

 

I love these videos of Ms Merry Mrytle.

 

Hugs & love
