Hello everyone, I hope that you are all as well as you can be and coping with the sunshine? I thought you might like to see our new family member Skye. He is an eight week old little terror but we love him already.

I have been struggling badly of late and so down and unwell. I finally got a diagnosis of Pudendal Nerve Entrapment and acute Autonomic Crisis which explains the rapid heartbeat, sweating, shivering, twitching, agitated state with no sleep for days. I have been weaning off antedepressants and morphine and starting drugs for neuropathy so I have been ( still am really) miserable. Skye and Finlay’s antics make me laugh. After a rocky start they are fascinated by one another and want to play all the time. Skye is very tiny and Finlay does not realise that he is a big boy now so supervision is essential. When they keep still I will post a photo of them both but for now the garden is on a one in one out basis to keep the little man safe 🐶🐶❤️🐾🐾🐾🐾

Thanks so much Meg. He is a little buggar, so strong willed and poor Finlay he is nipping him too. If we put him in his soft crate he just howls and howls. Finlay is such a lovely boy but still a pup himself so he is rough with him. Happy days but we love them so much xxx

Hi CecilyParsley I'm so sorry to hear that you have been so poorly.

I really do hope that you start to feel better soon. Its miserable enough coping with lupus without anything else.

I absolutely love your new fur baby so gorgeous.

They give us so much pleasure.

Big hugs to you CecilyParsley 🤗 ❤️

Remember you are not alone we are all here for you. Xx

Thank you so much. I love Finlay so much which is great because Skye is definitely a Daddy’s boy. He was just having a barking fit at one of Finlay’s teddies. It was three times the size of him but he wasn’t half telling it off. I tried to video it but it was terrible quality because I was laughing so much. Having them in my life makes me happy despite my body xxx

Oh my goodness! Skye’s beautiful 🥰 what a lucky girl you are having two gorgeous pups. Im Sure they will bring you lots of laughter, which it sounds like you need at the moment, these blooming diseases can cause us all sorts of problems, one thing after another! I hope it’s not too long before you’re off the morphine/antidepressants and on the right ones to help you feel on the up. I can’t think of any medicine that’s as good as watching those 2 gorgeous boys playing together and the antics they get up to. Thanks for sharing the photos, they make me smile 😊x

CecilyParsley in reply to Chris21

Thank you Chris. Yes the little devils are at it non stop, rolling on their backs gnashing teeth and squeaky noises. It is hilarious but we need to be so vigilant because Skye has needle teeth and no fear. He pulled a lump of Brodie’s tail out yesterday so quickly we did not have time to react and intervene. Fortunately Brodie is the most loving boy and did not hurt him. He does however inadvertently hurt him by bashing him with a paw knocking him over and trying to chase him which frightens him. Less sleep, more grey hairs but most definitely joy and laughter. We are so fortunate. Finlay needed a play mate and hopefully once Skye is bigger they will have so much fun together xx

hey lovely I am so sorry to hear what you are still going through (I follow you on another forum ) . I really feel for you so much and I pray you may have a breakthrough . I absolutely loved that pic of Skye . I do love terriers as they have such amazing personality’s like little people . Such attitude and I know who’ll be keeping who in check soon 😉. What would we do without our furry friends ❤️. Sending you biggest hug xxxx

CecilyParsley profile image
CecilyParsley in reply to Tiggywoos

He is a cocker spaniel, a Black and Tan and gorgeous. A very different shape to Finlay who has long legs, long face and very slender. Skye is a tiny chunky monkey full of spirit. I think he will be so good for Finlay who is scared of boxes, bags, new things. I will respond fully to your message I am just having a bad few days and trying to keep awake to supervise the boys. Huge Cwtches back to you xxx

Hehe I’ve just realised you said he’s a terror not a terrier 🤭. Ah he will be so affectionate 🥰. Oh hun you rest when you can . Sending you healing hugs and magic 🪄 wand xxxxxxx

CecilyParsley in reply to Tiggywoos

Ha ha he is a little devil but when he is not hanging off my hair, my nose or lips he gives the best kisses. Oh for that magic wand eh? We could use it and pass it on xxx

Brilliant pictures CP. Love the blue eyes still. He is so cute.😍😍

Glad you now have something of a diagnosis.👨‍⚕️⚕️🩺🤩

Hope things begin to improve soon.

Lots of healing hugs. 🤗🐶 xx

CecilyParsley in reply to StriatedCaracara

Thank you so much. I agree a diagnosis to know I am not losing my mind with my jerking and agitation has provided me a sense of relief. Hopefully the new medication and nerve blockers will ease the symptoms . Skye is a tiny, feisty, bundle of trouble but we love him already xxx

Hi Cc, He is just cheeky ADORABLE 🥰. God bless you. I hope he brings Smiles and laughter every day, to help your terrible pains go away. What a lovely new family member. Keep up the faith, enjoy the new car smell, lol, and I pray you get the care and relief you have been awaiting and need. All my love and blessings, The Stormy Sunshine 🌻😇🤗💖

CecilyParsley in reply to thestorm

Thank you so very much. He looks like a little Angel but he is really a Tasmanian Devil. Poor Finlay he chases him like an angry wasp and hangs off his tail and ears until we rescue him. He is definitely a huge character in a tiny body. He makes us laugh all day. How are you and the gorgeous Storm doing? Sending huge Cwtches and lots of love your way xxx

Hello,

Skye is beautiful, he will bring you years of unconditional love & happiness. I have always been lucky to have a canine companion in my adult life, i have a little chihuahua who is very tuned with me, my shadow. sending you both hugs xx

CecilyParsley profile image
CecilyParsley in reply to caninecrazy

Thank you so much. My life would be so much less without dogs. I lost my beautiful boys last year, one of sudden onset catastrophic kidney failure and the four months later the other one had a cancerous growth in his intestine which was removed but the chemotherapy caused pancreatitis and we could not let him suffer any longer. We were devastated and lonely so we got Finlay who is now a year old. Skye is everything on his Christmas list and they play and sleep together. Our family is complete again and my heart is filled with love for them. They make me giggle on my worst days xx

Finlay and Skye

That's the hardest part of owning a pet is knowing when to let them go. It's the hardest but the kindest. we have had all sorts of rescues over the years from yorkies, yorkie x jack, whippet cross and now teddy. from 9 weeks up to 9 years old. loved them all. would love a little friend for teddy xx
