I like this insightful lady!

Enough said.

Right now I am having a bad time of it!

My tummy is not cooperating with my appetite. (I did take my nausea pill a while ago.)

And therefore I am still having stomach aches with nearly every mouthful I eat! So I did stop eating until lunch...I had one and a half pancakes for breakfast about half a cup of seedless watermelon and three slices of a baguette in extra virgin olive oil laced with garlic powder, sea salt, and rosemary! Makes a delicious dipping sauce, of course, I put the rosemary through my coffee bean grinder!

No fun there...and I weigh in.... drum roll please... @ 99 lbs.! ( I fluctuate between 98 and 100 lbs. most days)

Just right for my shorter height due to my lumbar vacuum phenomena of collapse of my vertebrae.

I had a friend years ago who was 12 years older than me and was in charge of many programs for the Arthritis Foundation that I too became very involved with as a volunteer for ten years...anywho she weighed in at 80 lbs.-size and was about the height that I used to be...so 5' 2". So I called her out on being anorexic, and she said I guess I am... but due to her having Rheumatoid arthritis and nearly having every bone in her body replaced she said that she would never be able to stand the pain from being big on those Rheumatoid replaced bones!

So being thinner with arthritis is a plus I do have 8 kinds of arthritis out of the 100 types that there are... plus Multiple sclerosis... so being too large at this point I would feel so much worse than I already do!

Add my lousy stomach into the mix, and so many days aren't too great!

Sorry about this...TTYT?

Allow me to introduce you to the crew...

Lastly, moving on to who they are, our crew...
3 months, and ... now 6!


   
Aussie, say good day!

I am Aussie, not from Australia, but American-made. 
I will comply because it is fun and say good day!

I am called Aussie because my mom asked a sixteen-year-old girl looking at me in the crate I was in at the adoption site that day what she thought I should be named. Mom asked her age, but not her name—ha! And without hesitation, the teenager said Aussie! By the way, she was just looking, so my mom did not steal me from her.
We never found out the girl's name; Mom liked Aussie, too. Since then, we have discovered that it is a ubiquitous name, but it is still just right for me! My parents think that I am uncommon, even unique! I do like that.
I am an Australian Shepherd, a red Merl. And here is an interesting factoid about me: I was supposed to be a miniature Australian Shepherd, but as you might know, I AM NOT! I am a standard Australian Shepherd! Although I am now six years old, I am the baby,.I am the largest of tur babies, and due to my breed and being standard, I am just right, 
I was three months old when Mommy and Daddy adopted me. I had been taken- out of a hoarder's home in the Carolinas with my litter. 
Above is my PIC, taken on the birthday I share with my dad, but dad is much older than me!!! I was the first to be adopted, on February 16, 2018, on Dad's brother's birthday.
No tail/tale publishing, circa 2018.
Get it? I was born without a tail, preferable for all Australian Shepherds; only one out of five are born that way!

                                           

Hello, I am Bella. In the picture above, I am a Maltese Yorkie and a Morkie. I might be ten years old. We are all rescues, so no one knows our ages for sure. I am the middle child, so I am what you would expect, with all those idiosyncrasies accompanying that! Being the only girl has its rewards as well as its difficulties. 
I was turned in by my previous family, stating that I was misbehaving with their elderly dog. It had been said that I was driving him crazy! I was the second to be adopted on 8/18/18, clearing out the shelters' day!
My record called me Belle, so for no known reason, Mom decided I was more of a Bella, beautiful either way!




Hey, wait! Please don't forget me! I am Chance, pictured above, a Bichon Frise! I am 12-ish years old, so they think, and the eldest, and I like getting up early with mom and Aussie. Bella sleeps late with Dad, till after seven most days, even later sometimes! 

I enjoy a good tug-a-war on the ropes Dad had twisted for Aussie and me, and sometimes even Bella plays, too! I was the last to be adopted on January 23, 2020. 

I had been wandering the neighborhood for days, and then I saw Aussie and Bella in their living room window, so I hung out there... 

The animal control lady had been called and came out to see if I had a chip I.D. with her machine, and Dad told her that he wanted to name me Chance. His reason is that if no one claimed me, "I want to give him a second chance!" So that is how I got the name Chance!

The Animal Welfare League checked me out and kept me for sixteen

days until I was allowed to be adopted. Good evening.

Easy as Aussie, Bella, and Chance, now you got it! In order of adoption!
