It’s Button’s second adoption day today
. She is brilliant. I have taught her many bad habits that I get given out to about but between you and me they make me smile. We had our first weekend apart last week and it was stressful…..for me. She had a ball with the brilliant Audrey (Luv my fur kids) and her babies. You know even when I’m in work and I think of her I smile and wish I was rubbing her tummy. We are bad parents as she is on another diet! I think it’s more my fault as she looks at me with those big brown eyes and, and I want to make her happy. She’s too clever…. She KNOWS I’m the weak one. I think I’ll start eating in the shed! I’ll give her a big hug tonight and snuggle her. She had a great roll in Fox poo yesterday and ignored my pleas to come. The downside of her joy is her resulting bath. But tonight she will smell and feel wonderful, extra snuggly. Perfect.It just goes to show that you do not need to spend a lot of money to entertain your little darling. I took this of Buttons
I did a little Dog cross stitch in Buttons colours for Christmas. Hope she likes it!
20141215_211734.jpgHello,
Buttons picture won her a prize of a pet light from ‘Make your dog smile’.
The picture is on their Facebook page. Jetta is a DID supporter too. Lovely woman. She runs a stall at the Marley park market too.Buttons is on a diet again…..
. We can’t seem to get the balance right of dinner and treats. She knows I’m the soft touch and sticks her head between my knees at the table. I don’t give her a lot but it all adds up. I’m a bad mammy! I put her in the other room and shut the door when I was eating the other day but as soon as she was finished with her dinner she yipped to be let out which I did. I missed her little face looking at me too, I must be strong.We a toying with the idea of going abroad next year but it all depends if we can actually leave her. My head wants to go but my heart doesn’t know if I can leave without her. We have no friends or family that would be able to look after her. We know she would be unhappy in kennels and aren’t willing to put her in one. Does anyone know/use someone who is kind and reliable who looks after small dogs in their own home and based on the Southside. Thanks, Audrey.
Hi, Buttons is in great form at the moment. She spent the Easter weekend in Kerry and loved the smells and a had run on a beach. She was smiling all the time. I’ve entered a photo competition with her and would appreciate some votes if you have a minute. Thanks.

tmp_thegatheringbuttonsstyle1891494249.jpgtmp_sleepyhead-74169744.jpgButtons had her second injection
today. I brought some of her favourite treats with me to distract her, it worked a bit but she still knew she didn’t like it. The Vet seemed pleased and we can increase her walking time to about 20 mins on the leash. Poor Baby can’t understand why she is not allowed to run. I feel so sorry for her but it’s important she take it handy for now. We have another two injections to go. Would you believe, that we have her 1 year on Thursday? One year of yips, curls and licks! Wonderful.We had Buttons at the Vet yesterday and X rays have shown that she has a torn ligament in her left rear knee. She will need to get injections
for the next 4 Mondays and is only allowed short 10 minute walks which will not impress her. In reality it will have to be a bit longer as she has a funny kind of routine for her to do her business, especially in the morning. . Hated leaving her at the Vets for the X ray, cried a bit. Can’t help it. I suppose it’s because it upsets me to think she’s going to be scared.

Guilty as charged! In my defence I only get things to keep her mentally stimulated!
