MAGOO-- LIFE IS GOOD

Magoo (formerly Licorice of the Potomac 6 of NC) moved from Italy to Hawaii.  He has quite the life.  Look at that view!
He can take leisurely walks under palm trees.  
He can sit and just rest and breathe at the beach.
Or he can go right down and walk along the water.  I would love to do that!  What a life he's had with all the adventures and countries he has been to.  

Of course, we can't forget naps at home-- nothing is better than that.  💙

PIPPI AND MOWING

Pippi looked at me yesterday and said. “I thought today was a day off.”  
So WHY is the yard being mowed?  
She was mesmerized by the mower that foster dad was using.  I noticed her sitting and watching him go back and forth. 
She came in and said, “I’m not working.”  And she climbed up to the couch and laid down. 
Pippi is getting more used to going outside. She still has little accidents so she has a variety of tiny diapers.  (Thank you Joy for all you gave me!)  Pippi can be bossy. She is used to the 5 other dogs here but she can be bossy and fuss at them.  She wouldn’t mind being an only princess.   If you are interested in more information, email me at haveninhim@aol.com.   We are a Virginia/Maryland rescue and only adopt close to our area.  If you have applied before and want your application to be updated, just message or email. 

We want the very best home for this tiny Peke.

ANOTHER DAY OFF

We have another day off since it’s Labor Day weekend.  Lady Jicky comments on our blog and is a friend of mine. She lives in Australia. She said it’s Father’s Day there so we both have holidays. 😁
Hunter and Jingle were adopted together since they became best friends when they were fosters at my house. 
They’re going to hang out w their mom today.  Their 2 cat friends will do the same.  So take the day off from your labors and enjoy the day. 😁

SUNDAY PUPS

 

Cody and Holly show us how to relax today. Curl up w a toy and a pillow and you’re good.  

Dee Gee said if it’s too noisy,  just put a dog bed over your ears. You’ll look like a turtle but who will care. 🐢
Autumn is showing her perfect side.  She also has a not-so-nice side.  🙄 Today, she’s relaxing and being good.  We can try to do that, too.  
Happy Sunday. 🌞

WHEN YOU'RE SICK

I’ve had a nasty virus.  It comes w severe neck pain that moves down to my shoulders.  I could not move w out pain. 
Ice packs and heating pads helped. Gwennie was right beside me.  She’s doing better than I expected.  She always been good about eye drops.  
She managed to use her paw to get the e collar off. She’s being good not rubbing her face. 

Pippi got up there. Then Dickens. Piper. Cinnamon. Paddington, too. 
And Tuk Tuk came over and he got on the bed, too.  I had a 7 dogs on the bed. They were all encouraging.  I hope I’ll be better today. At least I’m not alone. 😁

GWENNIE’S SURGERY

Gwennie had her eye surgery yesterday. Dickens went for a quick recheck and he should be good for a year. 
Gwennie will be cuddled a lot.  
The ophthalmologist said her eyes would be more swollen  today. 
But after that she should begin to heal. 
I’ll be keeping her close. 
At night, she will be right next to me. ❤️

IT’S A PUPPY

There was a puppy… you know what happened next.  
He is a 4 month old Dachshund puppy.  He was found as a stray.  How does that happen??
He became a Peke for a day.  He went to my friend's house for several hours and then a Dachshund loving friend adopted him.  It was the only way we could help since I have no open foster home.  And I’m in overload. No more here. 
He’s only 6.8 pounds.  Smaller than Pippi.  He was full of energy!  Playtime at Yogi’s house!   
He wore out Sophie and Spencer, the 2 Bichon puppies we have.  
Welcome to your new life!! 🐾🐾
