Packed full of fun

  Although this is not my Abby packaged in the picture you get the idea.  I went on ebay and bid on a backpack to carry her in when the weather gets warmer.  I lucked out and did the bidding thing.  I got it for $.99 plus SH.  What a deal.  Her little pack is frontal so I can talk to her and see her expressions as we go on walking adventures.  It comes with a little doggie hammock inside for her sit on and a strap to hook her in safely.  I know when the  weather gets nicer she will want to go with the bigger dogs on their walks but with her short legs will have a hard time keeping up the pace.  I also got her a cute little pink collar and leash so I can use a combo of walking, and carrying her too.  She is one lucky girl.  Yesterday I went to the dollar store and purchased her her own "Dora the Explorer" brush,  doggie spa shampoo, and an adorable doggie mat that has faux sheep skin on top.  I put it on the floor when I got home and Eden immediately laid on it, Elijah tried it out but ultimately little darling curled up and claimed it as hers.  I find the basket at night gives her cause to wake up and cry as she still needs help to get out to go to the bathroom. Last night she used her little sheep mattress on the floor.  I put her teddy bear and baby penguin beside her and covered her with her blanket.  She was out for the count.  She got up a few time (unassisted from me) and that seemed to work well.  Once this training process is over and she can go through the night longer we will have a big adjustment and move upstairs and I can have my bed back.  For now though it is easier to hunker down, not complain and keep working with her so she will become part of the dog pack and our family pack.  Have a blessed day everyone and kiss your pets today.
