Just tired!

These puppies are trying to kill me, slowly I swear.  Day 22 of hell.

A few puppies have gone home but one did get sick a few hours after going home so I am a bit stressed to see if the others are going to get sick.

We have a policy that if you take your dog to the vet within the first week of adoption and the vet finds something medically wrong with the dog we will take the dog back and give you back your adoption fee.  In the case of puppies within the first 7 days if the dog comes down with Parvo we will give you back your adoption fee but you can either keep the dog or return it.  you get your adoption fee back either way.  Anything else we will not give you back your adoption fee.  SO since some of the puppies are HOME I just have to hold my breath the next 7 days and hope I don't get any phone calls from adopters.  Not because I don't want to give an adoption fee back but b/c I don't want any of the puppies to get sick.

I need a break from rescue... I just can't do this any more.  The last 22 days have been really really bad.

Just a few more hours

Well looks like I am track to get a few puppies into their homes.  Let's hope so. I am way past ready to be done.  Granted I love them,don't get me wrong but way too much work for this big bellied girl right now.

Tomorrow 7 puppies go to get fixed. ASSUMING in the morning I feel everyone is healthy enough to go.  There is always that chance someone will not seem right so I will hold back but that is pretty much a game time decision.

I am pretty sure by Sunday at least 6 of them will be in their forever homes and will hopefully live happy healthy lives.  I still going to worry about them for about 2 weeks after they leave... I just hope that my worrying will be for nothing.

Soon very very soon I will be able to "enjoy" my last few weeks of NOT being a mom.  UGH! I am going to be a mom... how is that normal?  Poor kid... I hope he turns out ok. LOL!

Hoping there is light at the end of the tunnel

Friday morning I am waking up at 5am. getting ready for work and loading up 7 puppies into my truck and off to the vet.  At least I sure freaking hope so.  I am pretty sure I have 7 puppies healthy enough to go...  at least right now I do.  let's hope for my sanctity it stays that way.

There is only one puppy that is sick, one of course that was in a foster to adopt home.  He apparently threw up last night and according to the home he was up all night throwing up.  He is at the vet right now on IV fluids.  The vet said he is feeling good he will pull through but still UGH!  what a pain in the ars.

I so can't wait till these puppies are in their homes.  This stress is out of control!!!!!!!

Made me sick

Well the puppies getting sick... ALL 16 of them one at a time.  most seem to bounce back within 24 hours which is great but some take a little longer to feel good again.  OMG Seriously these puppies are going to be the death of me.

On Saturday I was so stressed out and upset that I didn't eat or drink anything all day.  NOT good when you are 31 weeks pregnant.

My hands are so chapped from washing them so much they bleed and HURT so bad.  I put lotion on them and then sit there in pain until the stinging stops.

As of right now all the puppies are a live but with puppies there is always such a risk, you just never know.  I don't get it, I don't understand who they got sick and got sick with WHAT??  I mean none of this makes any sense.

I so can't wait until they are all better and in their homes.  I made myself so sick that I am now on a prescription ;-(  I am not very happy about being on a prescription while pregnant.  The doctor says it is ok but still I am not happy about it!
