Today is Mini’s 16th birthday! We adopted Mini and her brother Mickey when they were very young. Unfortunately, their mom was killed by a car, but we were able to save the babies, who were born prematurely. At the time we were an adopting them we had a 6 month old baby and 6 month old puppy. Life was crazy lots of puppies and a baby😅Tragically, Mickey passed away two years ago due to some complications.🐾🙏🏽🥹 Mickey had nine lives he actually survived a coyote attack 7 years ago. Must have been the cat 🐱 shelter 😇 #9lives
Mini came home first, and when I called the shelter, they surprised us by saying they had her brother Mickey. My husband, Adam, rushed to the shelter and brought Mickey home.
Both Mini and Mickey have collapsed tracheas, and they’ve needed medication for the past four years. Surgery wasn’t an option for them, but they’ve otherwise been healthy. Mini loves going for walks, always greets us at the door, but prefers to sleep alone at night🤔🤪. We’re careful around the pool because she’s not a good swimmer and tends to sink. Mini is the sweetest dog, as you can see from the photos. She enjoyed her day with a special meal and @dogstersicecream 🐶🎂📸 #sweetsixteen #rescuedogs @theturbotdi
