Shabby (Chic) Dog Update

So many of you left sweet comments last week when I told you about my very unconventional Mother's Day Gift that I thought you might like an update.

Penny has assimilated quite nicely into the T household.
I do have to remind the girls that the poor little thing is 12 years old and can't run and jump and play, but they really want to take care of her.
Emma has never been much of a lap dog, although she likes to sit on T's feet while he watches The History Channel. Penny would be happy to sit in my lap all day long. Since we can't have a cat (T is allergic), she fits the bill.

Her blood work from the vet came back A-okay, she's eating more, and we are watching her eye to make sure she's not uncomfortable. I'd say that's a pretty happy ending for a little old dog who was tied up to a sign in a church parking lot!
We're happy to have our little Shabby Chic dog.

  2. Sweet little Penny. . . isn't she just adorable?? I do love a doggie who will sit calmly in my lap. An advantage of being advanced in years, I suppose. She's a darling, and I'm so glad she's doing well!

  12. Hello! Visiting from SITS. I also got a dog for Mother's Day - the Pug puppy of my dreams. We tried to go the rescue route, but could not make a match. What a sweetie she is - and how wonderful that you gave her a loving home.
    Best,
    Colleen

I love to hear your feedback! Please feel free to leave comments...just don't send me spam asking me to buy stuff off your website! I've got three kids and no money to purchase your magic weight-loss pill or bust enhancement, or whatever else you might be selling. Thanks, and I look forward to hearing from you! :)
