  • I talked with Jf today Him and Nikki rescued two more cute dogs.
    also PLEASE in while everyone is in the holiday spirit...collect all your blankets, old newspapers and toys! all local shelters are in desperate need. Heck, maybe even volunteer for a day, make a dog smile or a shelter worker feel special. Everyone needs to feel like their hard work is worth while.

    the crazies.



    so edi has this new thing where she loves to help me knit, or so she thinks she is helping. she likes to sit right on my lap and chew on the sticks and they pass her mouth and then if there is string or balls of yarn she likes to grab those too. haha! She makes me laugh so much. Tomorrow we start our daily long walks for everyone. eek! hopefully we will all lose some weight from it. And this week the shelter photos begin. I think I am ready to go back. I really like making the posters and networking, it is so rewarding seeing the dogs you've networked get rescued or adopted. It makes it all worth while and all from a picture, just getting the dogs seen and that is something I can do. Nikki and Jf got two more dogs out this week. they are on a roll! and we are still waiting to see what will happen with Otis. Keep him in your prayers.

    woof.

    Welcome Home



    I have been in deep thought lately about keeping millie. I love her more than words, I love her enough to work my arse off to save and buy a house in Portland for all of them. They allow 5 dogs, yipee! the thought of giving her up, makes me physically sick. I don't even think of her as a foster anymore, i think of her as one of my kids. Weirdly enough, her and Edi were rescued together, went into boarding together and now they are sisters. The fighting has stopped between them, but I guess everyone is in more of a relaxed state as of late. I am saving for her to get acupuncture for her lupus, she is so itchy lately. I hate seeing her miserable, it doesn't help it is becoming colder and I guess everyone is getting itchy. We are starting new herbal remedies this week and a diet of vegetable and oil etc. I guess I should say, Millie is part of our family now. I guess this means we are celebrating a double birthday on January 6, they day of their renewed life.

    time to go.


    it was a long night last evening. Millie was up all night, not feeling well and itching. I am going to order her some herbal remedy for that. I want to buy a house in portland so I can keep her. I love her so much, I don't think I could let her go. I stay up all night with her petting her, helping her itch. haha! I love my dogs so much it hurts. is that weird. I hate being away from them, that is why I am working so hard to work for myself, so i can have that time with them. They are my life literally, they have kept me alive in times past.

    stop the LICKING.


    Edi just HAS to be under the covers as I have said she is a HOGdog, and then the LICKING starts. she has to clean her legs, her chest, her paws or anything else she can reach. I think she is cat reincarnated.

    Today it is about ...dum. dum. dum.... the squirrely squirrel. He runs across the trees just terrorizing them. my lavendar plants trampled, but a least it smells nice.
    this has started to be a daily routine for him. me...not liking it so much.

HOG! and last night edi HAS to be under the covers hogging half the couch. yes, i sleep on a couch, throughout time many rescue used my bed as makeshift toilet and it HAD to go. i live with a bunch of HOGDOGS. so now i have a crick in my neck and i am typing sideways. arg!

    just another chapter



    Lots of changes in the last few weeks. I have had to cut down on the rescue and now I have taken a break. It has been maybe 3 weeks to a month since I have been to the shelter and I will go back in December. I will then focus on photos and posters for the dogs... I just can't fork out any more money, i have been so far behind, i was depressed. But i am slowly getting caught up and am working on getting my photography and crafts...trying to make money to leave LA. It seems far off, but i want to open an animal shelter. i believe it will happen, in time. I have spent so much needed time with my furkids, I had been gone so much and i missed them so. I am going to start collecting blankets, newspapers and toys for the shelter kids. I want to do what I can,if i can't get them all out. Every lil' bit makes a difference, maybe i will start volunteering there as well, to get to know them. have to think about that one. Nikki is still going strong, she has gotten a lot of dogs out the last couple weeks, visit her at her myspace page .... myspace.com/themuttscouts

    toodles for now.
