Meeka barks!

Meeka learns how to bark! I kept telling her "Noooo" and she barked for the first time! I tried to reenact the situation to get her to bark again to capture it! She doesn't bark often, though. She hasn't quite gotten the hang of it, yet!

Blue Buffalo

If you don't know what that it is, it's dog food. Expensive dog food! And there is a bag of it in our apartment. I took Meeka to the vet yesterday for an exam and asked the vet what brand of food she suggested. She gave me a list but she was talking super fast and all I caught was "Blue Buffalo" at the end. So, I went to Petco and searched for it. I found the section and looked for the "puppy" kind. Found it! I grabbed a small bag and headed for the register; didn't even look at the price. "Your total comes to $29.69" I smiled and swiped my card but in my head I'm thinking, "What?! I wonder how much the big bag costs!" Out of curiosity, I looked it up when I got home. 


6 lbs bag = $19.79
15 lbs bag = $29.69 
30 lbs bag = $52.52




Turns out, I actually got the "medium" bag. Meeka is such a little brat! At least she will be a healthy brat! :) I'll spend the extra money to have a healthy baby girl!  


The vet found a few fleas but she is too young to use any flea medication; she suggested a warm bath and flea comb. Guess who had their first bath last night? 




She did so good! She just stood there and let me shampoo her and rinse her. She did attempt to jump out a couple of times but I was expecting much worse! I thought she was going to cry, struggle, jump, and do anything to get away from me lol she was so happy afterwards! She was running all over the apartment showing off how clean she was! And fell asleep soon after. I miss my husband so much but I am glad to have Meeka because she keeps me super busy!

Meeka

We finally got a puppy! I have been wanting one since I moved. I love doggies so so so much and it was so hard not having one here. I've grown up having two dogs at a time. (Bunny was supposed to fill that void but sadly, she became suddenly sick and passed about two weeks ago. RIP Bunny). 


We searched and searched all nearby animal shelters for the past two weeks. We weren't looking for a specific breed, just wanted to safe a life. We saw this beautiful Beagle but we weren't sure because she was already six years old. I wanted a younger pup so we kept looking. There was the cutest Corgi puppy that we applied for but we were declined because we don't have "Corgi experience." A few days went by and we decided a Beagle would be a good breed of dog for us. Short hair, small to medium sized, not too big, and of course, super cute dogs! So we went back to the animal shelter looking for the six year old Beagle. 


We couldn't find her and we were told she was in "intensive care" for having a contagious doggie cold and that she also had an adoption pending. We went back home, discouraged. I decided to try some online rescue programs. I applied for this cute one year old Beagle. I was emailed back shortly that my application had been denied because we live in an apartment. SO frustrated! I didn't know trying to save a life was this difficult!? My last hope, I looked in the classifieds for puppies. I figured there wouldn't be any Beagles but maybe there would be some puppies that need a good home. I couldn't believe it! Baby Beagles! The ad was added that day, too! I told my husband and he couldn't believe it.


We went to go look at the puppies after he got off work. They were all so adorable! I wanted to take them all. We picked one out and brought home a baby girl :) We named her Meeka. I fell in love with this girl instantly! 


And she loves mama too! 


I picked out the pup that was the most calm in the litter, so I thought. The next day, she was full of energy and wanted to play and play! I felt bad because I didn't have a toy for her so we were off to Petco (where she got lots and lots of attention) and someone got a bear... 


Isn't she sweet? She also got a pretty pink princess collar and name tag...


She doesn't like it so much lol but she will get used to it. I love those long, floppy ears and droopy, sad eyes! She is too cute and I am so glad to have found her :)
