Tuesday’s Tails: Save Tootsie!

So glad you are joining me today for the Dogs N Pawz Blog Hop called Tuesday’s Tails!  New posts go up on Tuesday but you can link up and post when you want all week-long.  The whole purpose is to feature cats, dogs, rabbits, birds, etc. so when you link up is up to you!  Even pets from PetFinder, are fine.  Let’s just get them all homes!

Dogs N Pawz said “I also want to encourage all of you to share each other’s Tuesday’s Tails posts on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and whatever other social media channels you use.  The more we share the more likely we are to get the word out!”

My local shelter has blocked the ability to save the pictures of their animals, for some strange reason.  I posted a question on their Facebook page, but this week I will feature Tootsie from the next county.

TOOTSIE

Labrador Retriever Mix: An adoptable dog in Laurel, MD

*Courtesy Posting*
Hi, I am a sweet older girl looking for my forever home. My last owner had me for the last 8 yrs and recently decided I was disposable. I am currently being illegally harbored in a one bedroom apartment with another dog, We don’t like each other very much and it has made for a highly stressful environment. I love children, and miss my 4 yr old little girl. I would love if my forever home had kids!! I am very gentle and laid back. I am crate trained, know basic commands and am up to date on all my vaccines. I am about 10 yrs old, spayed and weigh about 65lbs. If you or anybody else would like to help my dream come true please contact Heather at 410-703-5018 ASAP. This is a time sensitive matter and the clock is ticking.

Love and Licks,  Tootsie

Monday Mischief: Ying Yang Summer Heat

IMG_20130901_133527_286

Last week, before the big storm on Friday, it was so hot and humid, that the only mischief we wanted to get into was sitting under the cherry tree in the dirt and panting.

Follow Up Friday: Protect, Honor and Remember

Today is Follow-up Friday hosted by Jodi from Heart Like A Dog.  This is where we review the week behind so that we can launch into the week ahead (or something like that).

blackcatIt is Friday 13th.  Please make sure to keep all black cats inside today.  People are cruel, especially when Friday falls on the 13th of the month and Halloween. 

Louise started the new medicine this week.  She did not tolerate it very well at first, but we seem to be getting the hang of it.  I will keep you updated on her progress through the weeks.

Last week, Caturday started with a funny Russian sitting cat.  Doesn’t his back hurt after a while?

Black and White Sunday was a view into the dog’s vigil by the pool fence, waiting for either a squirrel or fox. They do take turns but Sofie seems to sleep on the job a lot.

Sofie Sleeping

The dogs went swimming in Mojo’s new pool on Monday Mischief.  Sofie absolutely loved being in the pool once she got over the initial fear.  Louise won’t even try it.  Mojo is in it every moment.  He also got a new sister this week.  Her name is Zelda and she is 7 weeks old from the same Labrador breeder that Mojo (who is 5) came from.  Louise and Sofie have not met her yet, but I bet she will be a swimmer, just like her big brother.

Tuesday’s tails had a ton of FREE cats.  What an incredible gift that someone gave to the shelter to pre-pay for so many cats to help get them homes.  I do hope that people saw this as an opportunity to adopt.

Wordless Wednesday fell on the anniversary of the 9/11 Tragedy.  It is so sad to think of the meaningless killing that went on that day.  So many lives were lost.  It is just so heart breaking.  I was up in NY visiting my sister a few weeks after the attacks, and we went into Manhattan (it was her 50th birthday).  I cried when I saw the armed guards at the entrances to every tunnel and bridge.  I’ve seen that kind of police presence outside the US, but never here before that.  My friend Susan survived the attack at the Pentagon.  She was one of the luck ones a few rings in.  This pointless killing really needs to stop, don’t you think?

Thankful Thursday gave me the opportunity to thank all the people and animals that live their lives in service to keep me free.

May you know safety, and love, and freedom, now and forever. Thanks for reading.

That’s it for the week. Thanks for playing along with us.  Check out the hop below and you can go play with others.

If the animal kingdom can figure out how to live together, why can’t we humans?

Remember the fallen and the brave today in honor of the September 11 tragedies.  May we War no more.

Monday Mischief: Mojo Got A Swimmie Pool

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

Mojo Rising, Louise’s boyfriend the champion dock diver boy/lab next door, got a dock diving dog pool.  Lulu and Sofie have never been in a pool (except the one time when Sofie was a puppy and jumped in the family pool to save Mommy from herself).  They’re allowed in this pool because it is for dogs.  Lulu was having no part of it, but Sofie, after a little coaching, jumped in.  She freaked when she realized, unlike the river, she could not touch the bottom (it is 4 feet all around) and had to swim.  Wish I could have photographed the look on her face when she first dog paddled to me with ‘Mom, how do I get out of this thing?” but I was too busy worrying about her. Once she refound the steps, which are big lab-leg height (she had to pull herself up with all her little Sheltie weight), she was fine.  She jumped in again a little later for a second try.

Louise?  Well, I guess she is more land hound than water lab.  BOL.

Follow Up Friday: Smiles and Tears

Today is Follow-up Friday hosted by Jodi from Heart Like A Dog.  This is where we review the week behind so that we can launch into the week ahead (or something like that)

. ———————————————————————————-

This has been a hard week in the physical world. Though Louise is tolerating the antibiotic, it is just not doing enough to stop the sores.  Now we must move to the next step which is a drug called a Cyclosporin.  It may or may not work, and Dr. Kate says it could take a few months to know, and it is really really expensive.  Though unemployed how can I not treat her disease? This is so painful on so many levels.

Waiting for Dr. Kate

Waiting for Dr. Kate

Sofie’s asthma is acting up this week, I guess because of fall. She is wheezing like crazy.  Benadryl 3X a day. Ahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OK – I am done ranting now.  Thanks for letting me vent.

——————————————————-

Let’s ignore reality and look at the blog world, which is much more fun:

Caturday, I finally was able to show you some of the millions of cat pictures that Peanut has been sending me from school in Israel.  She is in love with every one of them.  I told her that we have 3 kitties already and live an eleven hour flight away, so don’t get attached (mean Mommy that I am.)  

 Black and White Sunday was a happy moment with the doggies, with my smiling Sofie.  Even Lulu is smiling in the background.  I love when my animals smile, I am not sure why but it just makes me feel like I am doing something right.

Monday was the Labor Day holiday and we focused on our animal heros.

We highlighted the cutest 9 year old doggie named Champ on Tuesday’s Tails.  I do hope some one takes him soon.

Miss Smiley Sofie was back on Wordless Wednesday, hiding in the bushes.  How can you not smile when you see that face.

And, Thankful Thursday gave us pause to thank the universe for the wonders of fall. 

I know that everyday is a gift, and no matter what the wind blows in, if we handle it together, we will be ok.
