What a day!


yesterday had lots of drama, just the way i like it... NOT.
First i took a trip to the hospital with palpertations, and after only a couple of hours there, rick and i left and went home for a quiet night.... unfortunately not.
around 7.30pm Molly (the black and white one) starts to scream and bella (the brown one) is too. its really a mix of screams and growls. I screamed (dont know why cause that wasnt going to help! dah!) rick grabbed molly, i grabbed bella but the little shits wouldnt let go of each other. im hitting bella on the back legs hard, and rick is doing the same to molly hard but they wouldnt stop. eventually they realese. i take bella to the bed room and molly goes to the bathroom. ricks askes is bella hurt but i dont really know cause my heart is pumping so hard. then i see blood on my hand and i cant tell where its from. then i see her ear (bella) is ripped near the edge, i get toilet paper and hold it there to try stop the bledding. it does after a little while and rick wipes the blood of me and bellas head with a cloth, but this makes it bleed more, so we decide to take her to the vet (only the emergency one is open at this time of night), its only 10 minutes away. so we go, she gets this glue stuff put on her ear, the top of her head shaved a bit and a neddle of antibiotics. $100 later and some treats for bella and we leave only for it to reopen and bleed some more in the car a few minutes later, so we go back get more glue and then go home.

we slowly re-introduce the two girls to each other and watch them like hawks as we sit on the couch and watch 'into the blue'. all is well we think.......
this morning before leaving for work and uni at 8.49am exactly, i warn molly to calm down and stop sniffing Bella's ear, but she didnt and bella didnt like it and the next split second the growls and screams are happening right next to me while im nude(just out of the shower). so i yell for rick and we grab one each but again they wont let each other go. when they do we check them both to make sure no one is hurt (which they're not) thank god! so bella is spending the day in our bedroom and molly is in the bathroom, we didnt think it was wise for them to share a room like normal.

I just hope these fights stop. they have them every now and then. nothing too bad. but at the moment i wouldnt leave them alone together for fear of coming home to one of them having been killed by the other. Believe it or not, but these are two really sweet dogs who have never hurt anyone, but each other, and most days they love each other to pieces, they eat drink and sleep together. i think molly is challanging Bella for dominance. lets hope its all over hey?

i'm cool now. the baaaaddddd palps happen about once a month sometimes twice (the ones i go to hospital for), the little ones that only last half hour or so (compared to the big ones lasting 4-5 hours)happen once a week. they will fix it soon, im on the waiting list!!!
