It happened on Tuesday and boy, has this been rough on him! He’s such a happy puppy and for people to hurt him? He just doesn’t understand. Plus I got pretty pissed off that they sent him home without any pain meds and he was crying in pain. Damn! I found a bottle of my other dog’s drugs and called to ask if I could give some to Jake. Even with an analgesic, we spent a miserable night. If it wasn’t for the fact that he has to live in society, among other dogs and people, I’d have left him intact. Yikes! Hurts me just to think about it. When Louie was neutered, they just snipped ‘em off and stitched him up. Now they use this new technique so your dog looks pretty much the same, but I think it’s like pithing a frog. Those of you who took biology will know what I mean. As soon as I picked him up I was like…oh god…put it back!
On to other things!
Author Katalina Leon wrote a beautiful review of my new release, Come Back To Me, on a site a bunch of us authors share - Seven Sexy Scribes. I can’t thank her enough. Here’s the link so you can read it: http://sevensexyscribes.blogspot.com/
A piece of her review - “Come Back to Me is one of those gripping creations that might sound unattractive on the surface but reveals itself as beautiful inside. This oyster has a pearl to share with anyone who needs to heal from any of these issues or simply enjoys seeing real love triumph.”
I do like oysters, Kat! LOL!
