But just when I was about to pack him up for the vet, he started to perk up. Then I remembered he'd taken a fall on Saturday. His favorite sitting spot is on the arm of the couch. Well, the klutz was stepping from the arm of the couch to the arm of the loveseat and slipped. He got stuck between the two arms and was hanging on with only his front paws and flailing wildly with his back legs. I was sitting right there so I rescued him. I think he may have strained something or maybe was just a little sore for a few days. Cuz by Wednesday he was back to normal. His usual high energy, happy little self. Thank goodness.
God answered my prayers when he made this dog. I'd always wished for the perfect man to come into my life. I just forgot to mention that he should be in human form. So I got a furry soulmate instead. The joke was on me. But we're a team... this crazy dog and I. And I wouldn't want it any other way.
I know the reality is that he won't live forever. But I can't imagine life without him. So I'm very grateful for his good health. Because I know of others who are suffering through the illness or the loss of their own furry soulmates. My heart breaks for them ...... and for me. Cuz I know that someday it'll be my turn. But for today, I won't think about that. I'll appreciate every day that I have him. I'll go on loving him with my whole heart. And spoiling him rotten, too. LOL!
So this week's 3 words are for my first baby. My little furry stinky breath soulmate. My Griffey.

Cute soulmate you got stuck with!
Aww..he's lookin' like he has a sleek new do. Glad he got over his funk.
I think he's better than most men in human form. In the morning, his breath is probably better too ;0)
That's my kinda soulmate =)
So glad he's ok!
Glad your pup is back to his old self!
We have a Pom, too...and he is crazy about cheese, also!
Glad he's better!

You know I LOVE furbabies...
Love your 3 words...
Have a Great Week...
We have stinky breath babies here too....and we love 'em! :-)
Glad the little guy is okay! We know Harry doesn't have much longer. It hurts just knowing we're going to have to make that decision soon. Cullen is going to take it the hardest. Harry has been with us longer than Cull. Love that little guy while you've got him!
Awww, what a cute picture. Glad to hear that he's doing better.
Good to know he is doing better! And I must agree he is the perfect soulmate for you!
Have a good week!
HEllo, my name is Lauren. I am a single mom of 2 bio children (16) and (13). We are thinking about international adoption. Stop by and say hih.
Happy St. Patrick's Day.
Lauren
I am soooooo glad Mr. Griffey is feeling better, nothing worse than a sick baby. Jasmin and Moose send a big lick his way to speed up the recovery time.

Good to know it was only a strain/sprain. Bernie pulled one of those on me. Vet says it is some disk. She seems to have fully recovered after costing $264 last week. Grrr...but you know I'd have spent more...Did I mention the vet is currently adding a wing to the office? Ahh, I love my Bernie just as you love Griffey. =)
Awwww, so sweet. I agree 150% look at me I have 3, yes 3, Pomeranians I treat them better than many folks treat their kids. My oldest is officially my FURRY SOUL MATE...he is top Pom around here. I am glad Mr. Griffey is feeling better. I agree about the shreeded cheese being like crack...same around here TIMES 3!
Hugs to you and Griffey - so happy that you two have each other.
21 - well, yeah. Dossier on shelf and all that. Lets see where we are next year this time....
I thought that was Griffey in the video!
So glad he's not sick.
Oh - I get it hon!
I have my own little soulmate and I believe that we were meant to be from the very start. My stomach turns at the thought of losing him.
Get well wishes for your cuddlebug -
xoxox
Interesting, isn't it, how so many of us in the adoption world have furry soulmates? I love mine, as you do. He had a similar mishap a number of years ago. The vet Xrayed and gave anti-inflammatories and kennel rest - fortunately that was all it took. If it hadn't he may have needed back surgery. He has been with me now for almost 10 years - can't imagine life without him.
