Tink Models Her New Sweater





We took the girls shopping at Petsmart over the weekend. I wanted to get a sweater for Tink because Michigan winter will be here soon and she already shivers in the morning. It makes it hard for her to potty when she is that cold.

I realized something - dog clothes are expensive which is why I made an attempt to make clothes for her myself.



I realized something else - it is time consuming to start from scratch. Her sweater didn't take me long because I made it from the sleeve of an adult sweater and used a glue gun for a no-sew. While it turned out cute, I could have done a better job. I just don't have a lot of time right now. I do plan to make her more things as time permits.

I was actually surprised to find this cute little sweater at Petsmart for $10. Lil m liked it because it was warm (fleece) and pink. I liked it because it was affordable. As you can see in the pics, Tink approves.

Meet Tink

Image
After months and months of waiting, praying, and praying some more, we finally have a new addition to our family. This is "Tink" (yes, short for Tinkerbell) and she is about 9 weeks old. She is a Chug. Part Pug part  Chihuahua.   I was looking at rescues, adoption centers, Craigslist, newspapers and various other places people post dogs. Every time we found one we liked it had issues with other dogs or cats. Then I couldn't decide if I wanted an older dog for Casey, or a puppy.

A Memory of Cain & My Need to Move On

Image
A few days before Cain had passed away he must have had a chill because he was shivering. It was not like a seizure shake. It was rather chilly in our house. I remember Big M grabbing his sweater to put on him and me telling him not to. I just did not want Cain to freak out. Big M did not listen and when I came around the corner, this is what I saw. I had asked for a photo but I never saw him take it. When I was scrolling through the photos on my phone - this is what I found.
