The Christmas Round-Up

We had a perfect Christmas here at the Silverii household filled with lots of family traditions and great company!

First on the traditions list was spending Christmas eve at our family friends house who we have a seafood feast with every year on Christmas eve for as long as I can remember! This year we added in a dirty gift exchange! it made for more laughs than usual to say the least lol. I ended up with a fun gift but nate brough home a bottle opener that makes orgasm noises when you use it.... yay! NOT lol though he is pretty amused by it! Also there were stress ball boobs and penises lol, beer opening rings, penis pasta and lots of other weird wonders

 (apparently there were sperm inside the stress ball penis...)

 (beer bottle opening rings super powers!)

(LOL)

Needless to say we all got off to a semi late start Christmas morning. This was our first year being able to host Christmas morning at our house! It feels so nice to have a home you want to share with other people. We were a small group this year just us the dogs and my parents but it was a perfect day. We opened gifts, relaxed and watched It's a Wonderful Life ( a must in my family for the holidays) while the turkey cooked. Then settled in for a nice little Christmas dinner!

We spoiled each other a bit this year cause it was the first Christmas since we have been married where we could afford to! So we got a new 40 inch flat screen as a present to the both of us. Nate got me an amazing bubble bath set from fruits and passions, the raddest leather purse from beaded dreams a local native store along with a rabbits paw and fox tail! Also two shirts n9ot pictured that I am in love with. I am a lucky lady!

Hope everyone got to enjoys their holidays as much as we did, and that you all spend your new years with the ones you love!

Help Save These Puppies!

My friend Isabel's Pit Bull fathered 5 pups with her boyfriends mothers Boston Terrier. When they were born they decided to keep one. At 8 weeks two were adopted. People were supposed to take the other two  backed out so her boyfriends mother who has the Boston kept them till a good home was found.

They had a big fenced in yard with a huge dog house. Isabel would often bring her puppy out to play with it's brother and sister that still had not been adopted.

 A few days ago the little female started getting sick. The vet said she had parvo. Most likely from one of the parents carrying it as its a strong living virus.

 Canine parvovirus is a contagious virus mainly affecting dogs. The disease is highly contagious and is spread from dog to dog by direct or indirect contact with their feces. It can be especially severe in puppies that are not protected by maternal antibodies or vaccination. It has two distinct presentations, a cardiac and intestinal form. The common signs of the intestinal form are severe vomiting and dysentery. The cardiac form causes respiratory or cardiovascular failure in young puppies. Treatment often involves veterinary hospitalization.  Mortality can reach 91% in untreated cases.

 She went to the vet who initially said that her treatment would be over 4000$, She did the best she could to save her but unfortunately it was too late and she passed away. (the female who passed away earlier this week was the one in the center of her 2 brothers who are now fighting the same sickness)

Knowing that her pup was likely to have Parvo Isabel and her bf rushed him to the vet who gave him a better chance because it was detected a little earlier. (their pup at the vet)

This has been a HUGE financial strain on them not to mention they are now attempting to save not only their own pup along with the other unadopted  brother  which they really cannot afford.  But reguardeless they we're not willing to just let him die. (this is Mike the unadopted pup)

 They  had enough for a first run of medication by shots but they are still doing most of it at home as they don't have enough to leave him at the vets to get all the proper care he needs.

They don't know how much help he will need or even if their own pup will be ok with the short stay at the vet they can afford. This virus can be cured. It just needs a lot of help. They really just want to give these 2 dogs a real chance and it's just money that's in the way right now.

 Basically they need a bit of help and the two puppies will grow up to be amazing dogs. Miko, the un adopted dog is so amazingly sweet and if he survives in in search for his forever home. He is about 13 weeks old now. They won't be asking for money to adopt him but they want to make sure it foes to someone they know or a friend of a friend so he can go to a good home.

 They live in the Montreal area but would be willing to drive him out to Ottawa if all goes well with his treatments. So that he could be in a loving home.

Every little bit helps. 

Please donate to save these 2 puppies and help find Miko his forever home.

What We Ate Wednesday: Dog Editon

I often have followers online ask what we feed our Bostons because they can be pretty picky eaters and a lot of Bostons have sensitive stomachs. I figured What We Eat Wednesdays would be a good day to fill you guys in on what the pups eat too.

Now Lemmy is 9 months old and since day one will eat anything in his way, hes not picky at all. He is still on Nutrience Puppy till next month. Dolly was a different story. We tried her on about 4 different foods over 3 months and she would puke them all up, and would get to point where she would just stop eating them all together. Once we started her on Nutrience Dog Food all the puking stopped. Shes still never been exactly eager to eat so we tend to put some wet food on top of her dry food to get her a little more stoked on meal time.

This food is a little more pricey then you grocery store food, but that stuff is pretty much like junk food for your dogs. Most of the stuff on the ingredients on those bags you can't even pronounce. I prefer to spend a little extra and know the quality of food our pups are getting.

Treat wise they get Old Mother Hubbard bones daily. And for special treats they eith er get pigs ears of their new fave is BBQ smoked rib bones!

We also buy everything for our dogs from a local Centertown independent pet store called Pet Circus. They have such a great staff! The owner has Bostons himself and is always around to chat with us about the pups and spoil them with treats. I wouldn't want to spend our money anywhere else.

My next dog mission is to make my own treats for them but all the recipes I find don't have a shelf life much longer than a week or two. So I am on the hunt for a better recipe.

What do you guys feed your dogs? Any treats to suggest?

Pups and Friends

I can never take enough photos of the little babies!
