Hello furiends! Salem here to report on, well, ME!!! See, yesterday, April 1st was my 5th birthday! That's right, I celebrate my big day on April Fool's Day!
It was a good day. I had extra lovings and brushings! Plus some tunas...which I had to share with my kitty sister, Sophie. Otherwise, she would have smacked me with da paw.
Sophie: "I will admit nothing."
I still like to help Mommy while she works!
See you all next time around!!
Salem
**Now for an update from the Painter Pack Mom**
Hi there! Just wanted to update you all on Miss CoCo Bean's continued treatments and recovery from her dreaded heartworms.
She finished her antibiotics yesterday, so we wait 30 more days before beginning them again. She is still on supplements for heart and liver strength, but is doing just great!
She has a new bed! And, since this picture was taken, she also has a new water bowl and a new food bowl that attach to her crate. It makes it easier for her.
Although she is doing really great with the heartworm treatments, she continues to have problems with her back, right hip. Considering she is a German Shepherd mix, the vet says it is the beginnings of arthritis. Some days are fine, but when the weather is bad or cold, she has a much harder time with movement.
Here, the Siberian girl is checking on her older sister. They don't usually get along, but lately Mya has been much nicer to CoCo.
Coco really likes her new bed. It helps her rest better and stay quiet, which she has to do while undergoing the treatments. She has one LONG walk each day in the back yard, but other than that, not a lot of activity. But at her age, she doesn't mind. She will be 12 next month.
So for now, all is well in the Pack. The girls are all fine and happy! As it should be!
Thank you all for reading, caring, and being such a great family!

Happy Birthday Salem! You are a cutie and I love that name, I remember Salem from the Sabrina tv show. I am glad the heartworm treatment is going well, was she checked for lyme disease? That can cause a lot of problems similar to arthritis- not sure if lyme is an issue where you live, but almost every dog near me seems to get it.
