Lifes little slices - by charliesgirl_992000

Tinkerbell almost died!!!

October 14th 2007 09:06
Tinkerbell

I was away on vacation for three weeks with the kids when it happened. Hubby opened the door and let her outside to potty before work, like we always do. She was out no longer then 10 minutes and came back in with her intestines hanging out a HUGE hole in her stomach. We still to this day have no clue what happened. something peirced all the way through her 4lb body, popped out her back and then she wiggled off it somehow, wobbeling back inside. The house was dark since hubby was leaving for work, so he didn't even realze anythin was wrong, just let her in and went to work. She laid inside and by a miricle survived the night. When our vet opened her, her overise where hanging barely by a blood vesel and wher ein bad shape. She is now a fixed puppy and healed wll. she is our little miricle for sure. She didn't want to eat he blan food perscribed for two weeks, until i got home. and a dog that always followed me everywhere now REALY follows me everywhere. Even into the bathroom. lol

So alot has changed since i have been away sooo much. Petunia, i'm sad to say is gone. She it about three hundred pounds and was tearing up stuff, especialy the trailer skirting, letting the horses out and stuff. We had recently put in a fourth pasture. One for Blaze since her was profesionally broke. It had two lines, and when we first did it, Petunia could fit under it. After awhile she could no longer fit but thought she could. She'd sqeeze under, popping the wires and setting Blaze free. She always slept under the trailer, but could no longer fit there either. She was sooo use to roaming that caging her, didn't work. Like i said too, her legs had gotten super bad and she couldn't walk well anmore. She was only three hundred lbs about and was only four months old, or close there somewhere. The farmer, neighbors and the people that picked her up said she'd be around eight hundred by time she was done growing. The people we bought her from said she'd only hit about two hundred. They sure lied.

I'vebeen workin on kids costumes. We're having a halloween party on the27th. My friends family is comming. we're all wayyy excited about it.
The kids are all doing good. I've been working like crazy on my online job and still love it. Trying to earn enough for a realy good christmas. we also have a two week trip to Williamsburg in November. Well, we have one week booked and still booking the second tomarow or monday. If i can't get williamsburgh for the second week we're tryingfor DC. my friend lives right by there so she can come see me and vice versus. They are comming for some of the time to Williamsburg. It's a tradition in nov that we go there every year usualy.
I'm hoping o havemore time for writing between now and my next trip. Alot has been happening and ifeel very busy, but i realy am not. Been lazy since my trip, but Oct is flying. how is that!!!

Lovely to hear from you again Tammy, I'm so sorry about what happened to Tinkerbell, don't worry she's more sensible than us and not a bit worried about what you do in the bathroom.

I am just so happy that she's OK again, give her a big hug for me.

And I was very fond of Petunia, but I guess some things just don't work out. Love to you and yours, it's been a hard year for you.

Love and hugs, katyzzz

Katyzzz, Hey, glad to talk toyou again!!! It sure has been awhile. We have never planned sooo many back to back trips, with vacations, back and fourth to visit my friends family, her trips here, parties, my mom being sick and all the trips to see here, it sure has been busy. But i have some breathing room now so i am here again.
Not sure why it's leaving me anonymous!!! <smirks> but anyway...
Yeah, it was sooo hard. We had arranged it that we werent here when she was picked up, but as usualy things didn't work out that way, so we where here. That was harder then i had ever imagned it would be. When we got her, i almost didn't get her because i knew it may not work out but i couldn't let them kill her. I was torn because i knew i'd love her but never imagined just how much i'd love her. She was a pig!!!I love animals and we had a pig when the kids where young, butonly like wo weeks. I just never realized what a cute and adorable animal a pig could be. i miss her dearly, but bigproblems can come with horses running free. There is a 300 acre grassy area in front of us for the airport, then two highways, creeks, and tons of farms, then the mountains and lots of woods. A couple of the times she set the horses free ittook four hours one of those, to find them. I've nevver been sooo scared. Thank God we have quads to zoom around all that land looking for them. It had to be done.
Tinkerbell, WOW, you should see her tummy. She was split all the way up the tiny thing. She isn't a bit scared of going outside, although we are still nervouse. lol never probably will ever figure out what she got stuck on. She is great now though. Just got her staples and stitches out on thursday. still healing.
Talk to you very soon!!!
Tammy

Fog, You realy had me laughing on the 300lb dog!!! ROFLMAO That for sure would be some big dog. Nope, she was a pig. A huge black and white girl thati sooo adored and will miss dearly.
Tinkerbell sure is a miracle thatis for sure!! Glad she survived. It was hard being about 15 hours away when she needed me. Wish timeshares let you bring small dogs. I soo hate leaving them.
It's been a busy summer for us. Slowing down now as we head into fall, so i will be around more often.
I realy missed writing, reading about everyones going ons. it's good to have some free time.
Take care, Tammy

Hi Tammy,

Ooh poor little thing. How awful. I am so pleased that she survived that terrible ordeal. It sounds like an arrow went through her, doesn’t it?

Sounds like you are having a great time catching up with all your animals friends and each blade of grass of your home… be it ever so humble, hey?

It is lovely to ‘see’ you again…

Lilla …

Lilla, Nice to see you too! Hope all is wonderful in your world. We are all great.
Tinkerbell is doing great. Back to normal now. Finally eating regular food again, which i'm sure she is very happy about. Took a few weeks to get back to the good stuff. Lol
Take care! Tammy
