    Silly me forgot to put the dog news...my heads frazzled with this heat.
    Ben the german shepherd went to the vets the other day and he has a tumour in his mouth which the vet is removing on tuesday morning and sending to be biopsied.He will also be neutered at the same time..bless him.
    Other news DD2 has always wanted a pup and had fell in love with a jack russell.DH,DD AND I went to look at the pups and said she could have one.DH fell in love with another of the pups which would not leave him alone and fell asleep on his lap so I said he could have that one too.
    Max and Milo will be joining us middle of august once they've had their injections.
    Went out today and got leads,collars tags.bowls,toys etc...
    I must be crazy a rottweiler,a german shepherd and 2 JR puppies..they won't cost much more to feed as they don't grow too big.

    Hope Ben is ok, ouch to the chop..... ah to the puppies, they sound adorable,
    That is brilliant news about the scan, bah humbug to atos, - it may be worth ringing your mental health and asking them for a referral for someone to fill in your form.

    Hi Taxi - we all need to know how your're getting on with the pups. We got a Jack Russell puppy last June - she's such a character. She's fully grown now and isn't much bigger than my cat, she doesn't eat that much but has the energy of about 6 dogs put together! Mr SA still maintains Jack Russell's like to be in pairs and we should have got two!

    Sorry.I haven't been posting as tired,stressed,fed up etc and nothing much to report.
    The puppies have been here over a week and are hard work.They are settling in ok and are getting on with Tess my rottie and Ben the german shepherd...They both adore Ben and he is gentle with them..Tess has to keep warning them when they are too boisterous with her.The pups are both asleep in Bens bed at the minute.They can have their 1st walk outside on monday and will be starting puppy lessons next friday.
    I'm still in loads of pain and pretty tired at the moment.Sent my form to Atos yesterday so it's in their hands now.Had a phone consultation with GP this morning and she's sending my referral to orthopaedics and said they usually get in touch quite quickly so hopefully they'll help me.
    Didn't have JJ last weekend as have fell out with his mum.She was always ignoring my calls and I feel that she was taking the pee out of me and being disrespectful so have to stick by my principles.She hasn't spoke to me since.I do miss my little man and it makes me really sad but am not backing down as she needs to learn a lesson.
    So there it is

    Taxi - so sorry about DD, you did a lot and ur right to put your foot down, she'll soon realise how much you've done when everyone else has given up doing a favour by having JJ. Bet he is saving up the hugs thou.

    Thats gd with orthopediacs - at least your in the q as they say.

    Glad puppies are getting on well with Tess and Ben, bet she's a mother hen over them.

    You take care xxxxx

    Oh Taxi! Of course it upset you ... there was something going on a little while back, too, don't know if they're connected, but there's a lot happening for you emotionally. And you're still in pain? Thats not good :( I hope the orthopedics people can do something for you.
