2.9.12 00:32 One Lovely Blog Award

Thank you sooooo much to Misty Shores Chesapeakes for recognizing us with this very wonderful ‘One Lovely Blog Award.’  I am really happy that other bloggers are reading and enjoying my stuff.  Misty even said that we posted ‘cool’ stuff.  That made me so happy.  I do try to find interesting internet animal stuff to brighten the day. And maybe because I live on the Chesapeake Bay we have a special connection; me and the Chessie dogs.  Misty Shores has 4 lovely Chessies. Cheyenne, Maia, Riva, and Titan, and their purfect cats: KC & BW.  They are a beautiful bunch.

I think the rules of the award are that I tell you 7 things about us and than I pay 5 forward.

  1. Louise snores
  2. Sofie likes to clean the cat pan (gross!!!) when she can.
  3. I would adopt every homeless animal I meet if I could just figure out how to feed and walk them.
  4. I always wanted to ‘mush.’
  5. I miss the dogs a lot when I am gone for more then 3 days.
  6. There is almost always one animal in my office with me at any time (currently there are 4).
  7. Sometimes I stoop to bribery to get Sofie to come inside.

I wish I could give everyone a badge for being so wonderful, but I have selected some blogs that I really have been enjoying lately and that are ‘lovely.’  (I am only going to select sites that I have not honored before, because that only seems fair.)

  1. Onecoolgriff: Rambo, a Petite Brussels Griffon living in Michigan and his family of five dogs (two more Griffs, Pearlie Blue and Jemmie, Atticus the Rottweiler, and Buddy ‘the incredibly-old-but-still-getting-around whatever kind of dog,’ two cats, three VERY BIG horses, and his two peeps, Mom an Dad. This blog is funny and fun and I want to thank them for making us laugh.
  2. Bumpy Road to Bubba: This is a very lovely blog about a single Mummy and her darling 1 year old, Poppy Grace (aka Bubba).  Along with the furry family Bella & Bear.  This is her ‘journey to motherhood – single by chance, mother by choice.’  Thanks for letting us watch you all grow together.
  3. Chancy the Gardener:  With a face to-die-for and an incredible set of ears, watch Chancy, and the cats: Patches, Pooh, and Snookums, get into a lot of trouble fun.  Thanks for the fun.
  4. RumpyDog: Jenny Threet blogs about her rescues Rumpy and DeDe and their cats. I thought my zoo was funny and photogenic, but these guys are a hoot.  Thanks for the stories.
  5. TheNoiseInsideMyHead: Jake and Sabrina share their life with this wonderful young woman, Becca,who has been winning the cancer battle for many years.  I find her insightful, playful, and down right an inspiration.  Thanks for blogging and letting us share your journey.

So once again, we want to thank Misty Shores Chesapeakes for this honor – much love – Lulu Belle, Sofie Bear, The Muffin Man, Noel, Constance Kitty, the kittens, Nine & Stella, and of course, me (the human).

I’m Posting Every Day In 2012

Dear Followers:

I have only been blogging since 28 November 2011 but it has been great fun and I have only missed one day (New Years Eve).  So I have decided to try to blog everyday in 2012. Rather than just thinking about doing it, I’m actually doing it.  My hope is to post on this blog once a day for all of 2012.

I know it won’t be easy, but it might be fun, inspiring, awesome and wonderful. Therefore I’m promising to make use of The DailyPost, and the community of other bloggers with similar goals, to help me along the way, including asking for help when I need it and encouraging others when I can.

If you already read my blog, THANK YOU and I hope you’ll encourage me with comments and likes, and good will along the way.

Signed,

DogDaz

Louise (aka Lulu Belle), Sofie Bear, The Muffin Man, Noel, Miss Constance Kitty and the Human

The following products for people cost the same amount as at any other store and products range from gifts for pet lovers and awareness products to clothing, jewelry and more. Browse the following suggestions or visit their websites to browse for yourself.
