Nearly lost Mimi yesterday. Poor little thing fell into the fish pond and couldn't quite get out. I found her at 4.00 when she didn't come for her dinner. She was hanging on to the edge with her front paws, with her rear in the pond.. She couldn't stand up for over an hour. Mimi is 17, deaf and almost blind. Normally,she just sleeps between meals, waking from-time-to-time to yell at Shadow the Pit bull, who ignores her.
Have emptied the pond.

How scary! 17 is such an old age for a pup. Hopefully she gets back everything she had before.

She was fine in about an hour,after being dried,and given some warm milk with an egg. She then had a nice sleep in Shadow's bed. She's still there.

Poor baby! She is okay now, right? No lasting damage?

When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

Did you ever braid that hair? I don't think I could resist!

Hahha, no, I never did (and I don't think he would've appreciated that)
EDIT: Oh, and he did have shorter fur in the summer, these are all taken in winter. We couldn't trim him during winter, he got too cold

I don't know the breed. Australian terrier of some kind? Nice soulful eyes.

I have a real soft-spot for dogs. My neighbor just got a seeing-eye dog. I want to pet it really badly and introduce my dog to him.
