There's A Suffering Going On!


Corky is NOT a happy camper!!


Carryout from our favorite Chinese restaurant...Cashew Chicken



Well, Corky, our 17yr old pooch, is Not happy. He keeps going to the front door waiting for Crystal and the kids to come home...not happening. All night, every night, since they moved, he's been wandering the house looking for them...barking. Little tiny barks, grunts. He's PO'ed in the Worst way. They moved and did Not consult Him...Geez!! Crystal Anne!!! You Know the routine!!...LOL... You got some 'Splaining to do!! He slept with them...ate when They ate. Watched over them, alerting them to possible attacks from Gamma or Gampa...now he's suffering...itching. Is it hives? Stress? Abandonment???? He Shadows my Every move...hunting. I see only One possible solution....Where should I put his food when we bring him to you???LOLOL......Happy night or day everyone!
PS- Don't forget the Brenda Photo Challenge for Saturday, June 14th at Cindras blog!!! Anyone who's interested...go to Cindra's blog and tell her you want to join in so she can add your blog to the viewing list!!!

Donna, It is so hard for our pets to get used to the people they love the most to be gone..
Coco was so lost without John for a long time..
But just tell the pooch they will be back for visits.
Thinking of you my friend..
Sending you lots of love, Nita

Poor old Corky! I'm sure he feel he has been betrayed....
He cannot understand why they left.
But I hope they at least will come for visits sometimes.

Have a nice day!

Poor Corky...Crystal, quick mail home some clothes you wore for Corky to sleep on! It may help...when Mac left on deployments I always kept an old shirt of his by our shepherd's bed so she would "sense" his scent...it kept her from grieving. Our Vet was the one who gave this advice...or maybe Corky simply doesn't like Chinese food?
Good luck with this, because I know it's not really funny!
hugs to Corky

Poor little Corky! He is so cute. You'll have to arrange some overnights with the kids so he can hang with them. I bet they miss him too. I'm going to try and make the photo challenge, the 14th is my hubby's birthday but I'll try to do the photo challenge too. I like trying to figure out something for the themes. Have a good day Donna!!
