Crazy world of dogs

We've been so busy with the dogs at home. I didn't even realize how much time it takes to take care of them. It takes at least an hour or so (under estimating it) every morning to get them ready so we can leave the apartment without getting worried that they are going to pee or poop inside. And then the same thing happens again when we get home from work late at night. It takes us about another hour (usually more) to get them ready for the night so they can (and we too can) sleep.

Puppy has been sick ever since we got her. First she had distemper. That dragged out for a long time. Finally she recovered, and we seriously wanted to get her shots to prevent another sickness. But the vet wanted us to wait. Then 2 weeks later, Puppy had raspatory problems, more shots, medicine and wait. Finally, last week, I got her shots to prevent her from all sickness (so I wish). And this week, we just got her and Lucy spayed. We are really happy about it since that means we don't have to worry about it... but I think the puppies are not too happy about it... They've been hurting for a couple of days now... But they will be fine soon, I am sure.

I've realized that Roo, Puppy and Lucy are like my kids. Well, also the dogs (and the cats) outside. Hopefully, they will all grow up to be good people, I mean, dogs (and cats).
