The Arrival of Lucky and Diggity

Diggity in action on the second day before he started feeling sick.

Sorry for the delay in reporting on the arrival of the tremendous duo Lucky and Diggity at 7pm on the 23rd of January. It’s been a crazy, hectic, fun and sad beginning. Lucky is sleeping peacefully beside me tonight on the couch, but little Diggity who we have already fallen madly In love with, has contracted Parvo virus. He got it from a puppy that was put on the same transport he was on. All the dogs were supposed to have been vaccinated and cleared health checks before they traveled. The transport said that they did have a health certificate for that puppy that got it on route.

No matter where the blame lies poor little Diggity is fighting for his life tonight. He is in an isolation unit at a local emergency vet clinic. We are hoping with all our hearts that he will pull through. The rest of the story of their arrival and an update on Diggity will come soon. Please think positive thought for the little guy. He’s a tough little puppy.

Here’s a few photos from the first couple of days we've had them with us.

So overjoyed to have a puppy again.

So much to learn, like no shortcuts over the table.
