Time seems to be moving at warp, or at least triple speed! It's hard to believe this wonderful trio, the little 3 have only been in a home that our rescue has placed them in for a little more than 3 months, which includes a senior brother Yogi. What a busy and productive 3 months it has been! They are definitely settling in and are making themselves at home. Comfort, health and healing have been the priorities in caring for Hannah, Brie and Albus which in turn has brought about great results for each of them.
ALBUS: The raven haired love bug would like nothing more than to get as close as possible for snuggles and cuddles. After an extended course of antibiotic treatment that had more than a few challenges, this boy can sniff out all medication no matter how well hidden it is. Albus has improved greatly and has recovered from his pneumonia. He does continue to have an occasional wheeze and snotty snout but he doesn't let that slow him down. He loves to run but as the self-designated protector, he doesn't go far and is quick to check in on his girls.
BRIE: This sassy girl may not have 100% hearing, but she has definitely found her voice. With Albus taking the lead, she lets the neighborhood hoomans know that she has something to say. The extensive skin condition that took over her body and ears is about 90% healed and she is very happy about it. Although Brie would like to stop the medications that keep things in check, she does not object to additional treats to help her make the medicine go down. She was well enough recently to have her first grooming and it was "so good". She will be having her teeth done very soon.
Hannah: It's hard to resist this girl when she gazes up at you and oh so gently places her paw on your leg to remind you of your job to pet her or even better, to share your snacks. She's not at all happy with her diet, but results are impressive. Last weigh in she's lost almost 2 kg! The joy on her face as she runs (YES-runs) along side her siblings is unmistakable. She wiggles happily from head to toe when it's time for her leash and a walk. She continues to work so hard to keep up with Albus and Brie. Her weight loss and medication have been a great help for her trachea and her daily/frequent cough has improved to only the occasional episode.
These precious 3 are such joyful and resilient little ones that are so very full of love! They have embraced their new world and tackle each day with great enthusiasm.
Although they have made fabulous progress, they will require to be on medication for the rest of their lives for their chronic conditions.
