and as luck would have it

so were the usk valley gun dogs

gorgeous

along with these fine lovelies

cone of shame...

our gorgeous girl had to have 'the cone of shame' recently

having been spayed

she just wouldn't stop

with the licking

she was not impressed at all

and indeed she did have a great big sulk

poor sweet little puppy dog

it really did tug at the heart strings

all for her own good though

and she healed really well

have to say a tough decision

but a responsible one

jessy healed and a lot happier
