Pets

With your coming treatments, you need a warm dog beside you.
However, you should make it a small dog.
Re-read the chances of a good prognosis for you. You and a young small dog (they live longer) can grow old together and trust me a small dog is easier for an older person to pick up than a large one. (Think vet visits.)
A small dog does not eat as much -
The poop is also smaller and easier to pick up-
You can bathe them in the kitchen sink - better for an old back as you age.
Can not find your other post now, but I had marked two for you to re-read -Mustellus and Callie 1979.
Some time after Tues. the 3rd. I would like to read what you named your dog! Prayers and well wishes from me and the two Yorkies beside me.
