To your dogs, as well. I just never envisioned having such a little one, and I worry. My breed is cockers, nice dogs, and small enough for me to carry, if I have to, and I sure have. I called about a cocker up for adoption, after I lost my beloved Barney, and ended up with this tiny lost soul. His owner had died and he was separated from his biological sister, who was his leader, at age nine. He totally bonded with my remaining cocker, and she loved him, as well. But I also lost her, six months later. So this little guy has had a rough time. My local vet's wife, who has been very kind, told me that you tend to get attached to very small dogs, and this one sleeps on my pillow, his choice and, obviously, what he was used to. He's much better, but is still sneezing. My other vet is back this week, so he'll be in for a re-check. In the meantime, I am fighting him like the devil, just trying to get his medication into such a small mouth that I can barely find it!:-(
