Wedding Anniversary

Rocky was born on our wedding anniversary.When we got married we only had Ozzy

Happy Birthday Rocky

We hand fed him with condensed milk and gripewater and he finally pulled thru

He would cry nonstop in pain.I was really worried that he would not survive his puppyhood

In his third week of puppyhood Rocky developed a severe case of colic. He refused to eat and we were warned by the vet that he may not make it

World's smallest dog

Here is a post in September

Scooter the Maltese died.At six-months-old, the Maltese pup was claimed to be the smallest dog in the world. He was going to try for the official world record when he turned one.

But he never got the chance.

He broke his leg jumping out of the hands of a minder earlier this week. His tiny leg was put in a cast but the medication he was given for it caused stomach ulcers and he did not survive.


The 8cm tall, 20cm long, pooch is now buried in his shoebox at the bottom of his owner's Gisborne garden.

ND woman's 7-foot-long dog could be record holder

AP - Thursday, October 8
CASSELTON, N.D. – Boomer may be a buster: Measuring 3 feet tall at the shoulders and 7 feet long from nose to destructive wagging tail, he might be the world's tallest living dog. Owner Caryn Weber says her 3-year-old Landseer Newfoundland keeps all four paws on the floor when he drinks from the kitchen faucet in her family's eastern North Dakota farm house.

Boomer stares into car windows eye to eye with drivers. A 20-pound bag of dry dog food lasts the 180-pound canine a couple of weeks.

Weber says her furry black and white dog "comes into the house and his tail is so high everything gets knocked around."

Weber plans to send Boomer's measurements to Guinness World Records. The previous record holder was a nearly 4-foot-tall Great Dane that died this summer.
