It is amazing how much like our previous dogs, our new (rescued) dogs look. TomTom and Tuffy are are 5 years old, and are so sweet and quiet and gentle, far better behaved dogs than their predecessors, I am ashamed to say. However, their teeth are in dreadful condition, with Tuffy’s actually bleeding. Both are horribly overweight. I have already made an appointment with our vet at home, and with the groomer, though I’ll be combing them out as we travel, and we have started them on weight-loss diet.
Home by Friday!
Hugs,
Faith

About The Author
A native of Louisiana, Faith spent her early years on the bayou and rivers, learning survival skills and the womanly arts. She liked horses, dogs, fishing and crabbing much better than girly skills. Still does. A love of history and ancient writings excite her even more, perhaps because she can trace her own family tree back to William the Conqueror's invasion of England in 1066, later to Sehoy III, an American Indian princess, and to the gens de couleur libre, the free men of color in New Orleans at the time of the War Between the States.
As a girl, she fell in love with fantasy and sifi, reading five books a week, and wishing she, "could write that great stuff." Teachers in high school convinced her she could, and she's been writing ever since, with a desire to see ultimate good fight and defeat ultimate evil, and humans as part of the battle.
Faith now shares her life with her Renaissance Man (Ren) and their dogs.
Yes, Jackie, home is calling! Still in Louisiana but will be much farther north by nightfall.

Thank you Maria. They are both sitting under my chair as I type. This is wonderful!
Tomtom and Tuffy look so peaceful in the picture. They look so happy to have someone taking care of them. Enjoy.
Yeah the babies are getting closer to their new home! I can tell by the tone of your words that this is going to be a happy day for you when you get both TomTom and Tuffy looked at and on the road to better health with your vet and they will be happier also. I can also see why even in the state you are bringing them home that they are already happy to get the love and attention they deserve from an owner who will not only be responsible for their bodily health needs but their mental health needs also. Pets have always been in my families household from childhood, right now my husband and myself have a 10 year old neutered male Chihuahua, a 6 year old spayed calico cat, and a 4 year old neutered Tomcat. I also have a 3 year old Oscar in a 40 gallon fish tank who loves to throw water on the floor when he gets a little bit nuts at feeding time….
I know how you felt about getting these 2 little dogs after your previous loss this summer, you did the right thing for them and yourself because loving animals has nothing to do with how long they live because they live forever in our hearts…
I wish you and your hubby lots of joy with the new furbabies and keep us posted with more updates and pictures.
Woohoo home is getting closer…..
