FIRE FIRE FIRE

Our dog neighbors lost everything in the early morning hours to a fire.  Their entire house burnt down.  Just when we thought the fire was out our human had to call the fire department to come back out because it sparked back up.  It was really scary, fire trucks everywhere.  Good news is our friends got all their humans out of the house to safety and no lives were lost, just memories.  We are waiting to hear from them to see if we can help them out.  We also made our human check our smoke detectors and we want you to do the same!

Dear Friend Bo (RIP)

Our Friend Bo lost the fight today to his cancer.  He is now with our friend Deacon chasing squirrels and watching over us all.  We Love You Bo

The Rainbow Bridge

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.  When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.  There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.  All the animals that had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor.  Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.  They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.  You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.  Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

Update

Mom almost got rid of the 2 kittens she brought in our house but the poeple backed out.  So, to all of you reading this - please tell your humans to ask around if they want any kittens.  If you know nyone in the S GA area and/or N FL area.  Mom will take them anywhere and we get a car ride :).  Here are some pics of the little boys

3 more over the Rainbow Bridge

Mom came home today and told us that a friend of hers had their dog cross the rainbow bridge with 2 of her puppies, leaving 8 puppies (just a little over a week old) without their mommy.  An angel came upon the puppies in the form of a human and will be nursing them for the next 5-6 weeks.  We wish them lots of luck.  Please say a prayer for the 8 little ones fighting to stay alive and the 3 that have crossed.  We never met them but their human family loves them dearly.

Bo Hound - the Squirrel Hunter

we just learned one of our first dog park friends here in Valdosta has been diagnosed with cancer, he has an aggressive neoplastic mass, chondrodlastic osteosarcoma, it originates in the bone, his human mom is very sad.  Please send special doggie prayers his way.  Like Essex always on border patrol, Bo is always on squirrel patrol!

Bad News

Dang it, mom did it again.  We got rid of the three kittens and mom took in another one from her friend.  is name is NKOTB (New Kid on the Block).  We are dealing with him but then today she was able to catch one of the back yard kittens.  She calls them the Backyardigans and named this one Uniqua.  I have to admit, they do look tasty.  I licked NKOTB and he does not taste like chicke jerky!

Good News

A lot of news to share.  First mom got homes for all 3 kittens, our home is kid free again.  She doesn't know, but Lady II posted our feline siblings on craigslist too.  You can find them under "Free Shark Bait", shhh don't tell mom :).  Second, We read that our girlfriend Essex will be soon getting a baby brother, Sherman.  We can't wait to meet him.  Mom is going to plan a short trip to the Keys in Sept - weather permitting.  Finally, my arthritis has been really bad, not sure if it is because of this heat wave but went to see the doctor today and he gave me some pawsome meds, everything looked so funny when I took the pill ;8, I like those pills!  Have a wonderful collie day all!
