Lola

Lola has been as eye opening experience for me. I always thought I was a dog lover...turns out I am not. Everyone I knew told me not to get a dog, but it was all Sophia had asked for the entire year. Therefore, the girls got Lola for Christmas. This puppy has turned into the money pit. Besides the usual pooping and peeing all over the house....the day after we received her she started vomiting blood and an emergency visit to the vet revealed gastritis to which the vet prescribed an anti worm medication and an antibiotic for 2 weeks, then just as we finished the course she gets into rat poison and has to be observed for an entire day, plus receive shots. She provides little joy to me, I am constantly asking "where's the dog"? For all those people like me who thought Marley and me was so sweet and they to would like to own a pet.... owning a pet is highly overrated and word to the wise... don't do it!
