A Rose for Cherry Cookie (English bulldog)

Early in the morning, under a layer of Velcro weeds, I found a pink rose bush that escaped the sharp teeth of the neighborhood deer. The buds are beautiful.

Cherry Cookie started bleeding again so I took her to the vets this morning.  She has a horrific bacterial infection.  I've dosed her with antibiotics.  She has a raised temperature and should be alright in ten days.  But, that means the chances of having a litter this year are very small.  Poor baby -- she loves her little puppies.
