Thank you Angie and Westie Rescue
I just want to thank Westie Rescue for my Cranky Frankie. He's started to have some breathing issues , but so far, his medicine is helping him. (Our vet called it Old Lung- they are just wearing out...)
I got him on March 1, 2003.. at age 13.. and he has moved into the 'Order Mama around' niche in the crew here. He makes sure I put them all out regularly, feed them amply, and give cuddles promptly, or I will be read the riot act. He also makes sure I carry him up and down the stairs EVERY time.. or he barks for his mama-elevator to come to his floor. At 16, he will never be doing stairs again - he has a prescription for that from his vet (wonder how he bribed HER?)
I really didnt think an unknown old dog with questionable health would make it three years.. let alone be such a vital part of our family, but with good vet care, his health has improved... and he certainly has enough attitude to go on forever..
This isnt a recent pic.. but it shows him in his Uncle Sam outfit. He still loves looking dapper.
oh, and he hasnt bitten ANYONE since he arrived here...
thanks again

Sorry to hear he's recently having some issues, Corinne. Long may he reign in good health with his new meds.

Re: Thank you Angie and Westie Rescue
I can only hope... but this is probably what will do him in.. eventually the meds just dont work... I'm feeling a bit sad with him today.. not that I can be SLOW on answering his call

Re: Thank you Angie and Westie Rescue
Hi there Frankie! You tell your Mama what to do, that's our job! I told my people what to do and when to do it. It sounds like you are still doing a good job. Say hi to Duncan and Edy for me! I miss all of you but I am watching out for you and whispering instructions in your ears (not that you need it).
Lovies, Mishy at the Rainbow Bridge
