Because of changing life circumstances (my partner going into assisted living, me moving to a new apartment) we're needing to re-home our 2 dogs.

This is really, really hard. Luckily one of them is going back to my GF's ex-husband (which is an excellent thing) but I need to find a new home for Bella.

(more details about Bella in 🧵 )

*** Boosts greatly appreciated! 🙏 🐶 ***

Bella and Pebble enjoying the sunset. Bella is on the left, a brown and white wire-haired terrier-ish, dachshund-ish dog. Ultra cute! They are on a green field, shadows stretching out behind them, bare winter trees behind them and blue sky above.
Just Bella's head, looking straight at the camera. She has brown eyes, brown fur with white highlights. Long snout. Long wiry hair with funny tufts in places.
Bella--a brown+white wire-haired terrier/dachshund, lying on a couch looking a little sad. But she's usually very happy! Her random tufts of fur are visible. She's brown with white highlights. The couch is beige. There is sunlight through a venetian blind to the right.

"no one
expects the violence of glances, of offices,
of walkways and train stations, of bathroom mirrors

especially, the vicious telephones, the coarseness of
daylight, the brusque decisions of air,
the casual homicides of dresses"

Sometimes ours goals can seem out of reach, but if we stick with it, we can achieve anything.

On Monday my partner and I had to put down our dearest Luna. She was an 11.5yo lab and beagle mix that had been diagnosed with cancer, hemangiosarcoma, in May after her spleen burst and a splenectomy in late April. This is my first weekend without her, in an empty house (my partner is working). It's really tough. All those small sounds you may not otherwise notice are gone; no more tapping claws on the hardwood, no more collar jingle as they move, etc. She is sorely missed. But at least she's no longer in pain. Hug your animals.

A critical part of survival is adapting and blending into the environment.

Dog with his head under the corner of a blanket, hanging off a bed or chair, his eyes mostly hidden so, of course, you cannot see him.
Round-ish, orange chicken on a roost with head tucked “somewhere”. Looks a lot like a chicken ball.

Well, yup, it's and Kitty Kaze, AKA Kazmanian Devil, is determined to share Pauncho's water bowl despite me setting up a cute station just for her. Pauncho says, It's all good.

Kaze's adoption was conditioned on Pauncho's ability to accept kitty. I think this picture sealed the deal 😻

Biggest issue is getting 50-lb pooch to tone it down while playing with under 2-lb kitty.

Almost a month ago, the vet told me Happy, at 13.5yrs, was nearing liver failure. It was almost certainly cancer based on her bloodwork.

Here she is today, after many more vet visits, an overnight in the ER & 4 meds. Turns out it was a bacterial infection. She’s recovering & I highly recommend pet insurance.

I’m so grateful for more time with this very good girl. I also know that no matter how many years we’re fortunate to have w our dogs & cats, it’s never going to be enough.
