Been quiet lately

Hi Everyone

I have been rather quickly lately. I am sure many of us are having busy summers but this one seems to be the busiest I can remember. Work is busy, family life is busy, my husband owns a company and he has worked almost every day (including weekends), and for the icing on the cake we adopted another Basset Hound whom is 4, not house-trained and is currently in heat. Hopefully everything is starting to wind down and I can be more active here and help with support and just lending an ear or a joke!

I hope everyone else is having a good summer!

Hi gbears!

Good to hear from you. Sounds like you have a ton going on. Hopefully you're finding time to make yourself a priority too in all of this.

I hope things calm down for you soon. No doubt that new Bassett is so much happier with her new loving home and you'll have her trained in no time. I know they are notoriously hard to house train. I have a Bassett cross and it was 6 years til she stopped having the occasional accident. Now she holds it for hours because she's a bit of a lump and sometimes would rather sleep than get up and go! Haha

We're here for you anytime!

Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. Choose happy.

Hi gbears,

I'm glad you have an appointment to meet with the surgeon. That must be exciting!
