Can Tuesday please come?

I am driving my mom crazy. I want to go get Monty. I really could have used him today, it was a long day, still not over. I had a nasty seizure at 6:30 am, then slept for a while. I had a 10 am 6 month dental check, where Dr. Waage found 3 cavities, in my 12 year molars. Nuts. He only fixed 2 because he didn't want to give me anymore novacaine since I'd had a seizure this morning. Trisha, my best buddy at the dentist who cleans my teeth and spoils me, can't wait to meet Monty. She read the Seizure Alert dog book and saw Monty's picture. I will take him with me when I go back October 28th to get my other cavity filled. Its hard to brush my teeth, and those in the wayyy back are the hardest. I also told them I wanted braces, cause I want to be like the other kids, but they told me not today.

I took a short nap and missed my lesson on my horse Freckles. What a day.

My new dog, Monty

Hi Everyone! We got the word last night, and my Mom and Dad are in KC and I'm at Paige's house, but I got my letter from my new best friend, Monty. He is a black German Sheperd dog and is one year old. He came from Kentucky, and that's where my Mom and Dad went to school! Go Cats! Anyway, here is my letter from Monty:

Dear Margaret
Hello there! I know all about you! I had many a conversations with my good friend Emma before she left. I am so excited today because not only do I get to be your partner but I get to see my buddy Emma again. That is way cool. I hear tail that you are the best partner and that I am the luckiest dog in the class! I have been working so very hard to learn my job. I spend hours studying those smells so that I can get everything right. I promise you I will certainly do my very best to be all that you need and more. Karen says I am the sweetest German Shepherd she has met in a long time. In fact she said I was just like Lady. WOW is that an honor because she is famous. She is a famous Seizure Alert Dog and has even been to the White House with her partner, Alex. they wrote a book about seizure dogs and 4 Paws is in there and of course their famous seizure dog, Lady is all over that book, even the cover. She says we are just alike in personality so she knows I can be the best at my job! It is good people have such faith in me! My name is Monty and I am a year old! xoxoxoxoxo Monty PS Karen says I have eyes like her Ben, who was also a Black GSD and that makes me special.

Molly is now in Heaven

Molly went to Heaven yesterday. We are all very sad. She was having strokes, she was dragging her back leg, it was so very hard. Emma seems sad today. We will always miss her so much. She is with Hawkeye, Maude, Turlough, and Cloe. They are taking care of her, and she is able to run and play.

We are going to Ohio in October, as of now

This is Paige and I, she dance with me all night in her fancy pink dress, we had a ball, and she got blisters in her high shoes.

This is the bride, Ruthie and I, she is getting ready to leave the reception, so she has her bow from her dress draped around her neck.

This is the father of the groom, Richie, and I dancing.

This is Ryan, the groom and I.

Hello, We are going to get a new service dog in the October Pupkin Class. Isn't that a cute name? I thought I would post a few pics from the wedding I went to in April and I dances all night, I had a ball!

Emma is doing great, and Molly is doing OK

Here are my 2 precious dogs. Molly on the left, never poses well for a photo, she'll be 14 in August, and Emma, who would love for Molly to play with her. Molly hangs out here on this bed most of the day, while Emma prefers the couch. They both like to sleep with Mom. What a crowded bed it becomes with Dad, and if I'm having a bad night, I'm in there too. Whew! Thought I would share this picture with all of you.

She's coming home!

Mom talked to Jeremy yesterday, and we are going to adopt Emma! She is booked on a flight tomorrow night and we will go to the airport and pick her up around 9 pm. Please pray her flights are safe and she is happy to see us. We have not seen her for 4 weeks, it has been a long time. We are so excited to get her back.

They are training a new dog for us at 4 Paws, we don't know yet when we go back, but it will be August or September.

On a sad note, Molly had a stroke on Saturday. On Sunday she could not walk, but today she is walking, eating, drinking and giving kisses. She just can't do the stairs anymore, so that's more work for Mom. Maybe Emma can help her get better. Molly is 13 and 1/2, so she has been with us a long time.

Emma is at 4 Paws

Here are some pictures Mom took of Emma on her last days with her. She is settling into the training center at 4 Paws, and I've talked to Jeremy twice. We miss her so much. People are so kind and ask where my dog is, and we have to say she went back to Ohio. We are still holding on to the hope she can come back and live with us. It is hard to describe how much we miss her, and we hope she is doing ok. Our little Emma. We hope to know something in a few more weeks, after Jeremy has more time to evaluate her.

There is alot of hope going on in our house.
