On Snuffy and Leia

Since I asked for prayers for Snuffy yesterday I figured I owed y'all an update.  Snuffy kept us awake most of the night with his random yelping, but he is going to be fine.  He slipped a disc in his lower back, which needless to say was interfering with his movement.  The vet gave him a shot, and we're going to have to trick him into eating pills for the next couple of weeks, but other than that he's okay.

Princess Leia is living up to the title of "princess."  She loves to chew on fingers (and ears), and she loves to explore.  She DOESN'T love being given medicine (she was given some for the minor infection she's got), and she doesn't love being made to wait for her food.  She also doesn't like being held up for her picture!
 She's REALLY going to hate being given a bath.  She's got fleas, and since we lost Punkin to flea anemia I'm taking no chances.

Princess Leia, plus some info on one of our dogs

We've already got one cat named Chewbacca, so we decided to in the Star Wars direction again with our newest bundle of joy.  Meet Princess Leia.
The vet says she's about six weeks old, and I think she may be in the process of teething because she wants to chew on everything.  My necklaces, my fingers, my ears, you name it!  Otherwise she's adorable.  I'm hoping and praying that nothing will happen to this one!

In other news, one of our dogs appears to be sick.  I don't usually post about our dogs here, but we love him so I'm sharing anyway.  His name is Snuffy.
Kindly ignore my smirking sister in the background.  Anywho, we've had Snuffy since 2011.  He was a stray, so we have no idea how old he is.  Last Sunday he started yelping at random intervals for reasons we haven't been able to identify.  He'll be lying perfectly still, and then he'll just start hollering.  We are taking him to the vet tomorrow, so some prayers will be appreciated.
