Mrs. Dash's post on her new little birds got me thinking. Let's post our pet pictures!

(How do you get Flickr photos to post here?)

This is Chica (on the left) and Bossy (on the right). They are half sisters, rescued from a puppy mill. They were found in a high kill shelter, but saved at the last minute by a wonderful group who gave them urgently needed medical care, and fostered them until they could find someone who was willing to take both of them. They are completely devoted to each other.

Chica is full Chihuahua, but she has a ligament disorder, much like Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. She waddles around, hops up and down when she's excited, and does great on surfaces where she can get a grip. On slippery surfaces, she walks backwards! I guess it's easier for her. She's no trouble at all, and as long as she has a soft place to sleep she's happy.

Bossy is half Chi, half Boston Terrier. She's more outgoing, extremely affectionate, incredibly alert, and a great little watch dog. She loves her belly rubs, and is an expert at getting DH to sneak her bits of food.

Neither dog is yappy, they only bark if they have good reason to. They adore children, and are very gentle.

Can you believe these girls were slated for euthanasia? G-d bless all the vets, rescuers and fosters who helped bring me my little sweeties.

Here is our Scooby Doo!! He weighs about 5 kilos. A little guy who is very smart and protective and sweet with the kids. No idea what he is, as he was found crying outside our front gate, abandoned at age 2mo.
