Update on baby, for those interested.

Well, all seems to be going well now. I have switched her to puppy chow, and she's finally eating and gaining a bit of weight. After all the bills, time, energy, frayed nerves, stress, and odor/stain remover I think I'm gonna keep her around. I just can't bring myself to give her to a new home. Here's some pics of her.

rock on dude! keep it up! Im sure she loves your for it, and doesnt want to go to another home anyways!

she has some very large nipples, my dog got some huge nips after she went into a false pregnancy, it was a mess

Yea, they are finally retracting from when I found her. She must have had a litter not too long before she came into my possesion.

She looks like such a little love! I hope it all works out so she can stay with you forever. :please: From the moment you first posted about her, it always seemed like one of those things that was just destined to be.

The pic of her setting in the chair looks like she is saying "this is my chair buddy" :rofl:.I would keep her around also congrats :gj:

She's a keeper! You have good taste too, in dogs and soda! I love me some MUG!

The funniest part about this, is that it is absolutely true. we've had that lazy boy since I was a little kid, and a couple years ago when I got my beagle that unofficially became her chair. Now that I went off to college and took my chair (and Hallie, my beagle is back at home), Baby has taken over the chair. Everytime she gets in it she makes sure to rub herself all over it, I guess to mask hallie's scent with her own.

Heck yes, MUG is amazing!

Awww Ben she is a doll, and you have a heart of gold. There aren't too many people out there that would do such wonderful things for an animal.

She is so sweet. I love the second pic. She almost looks like she could have a little boxer in her, looking at her face.

Glad you're thinking about keeping her. She came to you for a reason:gj:

Oh she's looking so good, Ben, great job with her!

I believe her to be part boxer, since she has a quite large under-bite. But hey, no way for me to really know for sure what she is.

but yea, thnx for all the replies yall. I was just so excited that she is finally starting to really look/act healthy. She's still skittish, and has developed a bit of a "guard dog" attitude. She'll shy away from people out in public, but if someone walks into the apartment she's not used to seeing, she's ready to fight. Also... she hates people wearing hats. Thats a no no. I take special care to get her used to people outside the apartment, before I invite them over so she doesn't turn into mad-dog. But with care, she gets used to our guests and ends up wanting a good belly rub, but it's all about taking great care with her and watchin her moods.

I am also pleased that she's really opening up when it comes to playing. Got to admit, she has scared me a few times when she just gets a little over zealous while playing. I mean, one day she found my old astros hat and started chewing on it. I managed to get it away from her with minimal damage. But I have decided that she has proclaimed it hers... as one day I was sitting on the edge of my bed wearing the hat when she pounced on my head and stole that hat right off. She's got some big teeth... and that had me spooked for a bit. But, if I use my big-boy voice and tell her to stop, or sit, she immediately obeys and gives me the "i'm soo soo soo sorry face". lol

That, "be the pack leader" lesson works very well.

I must have missed the original post, but it sounds great that you are keeping her... she looks like a happy dog, with you!!!:gj:
