A WEEK OF REMEMBERING

Most of you know that Toasty lives in New York (Brooklyn) now.   He isn't that far from the 9/11 site.   My granddaughter told me there were a lot of remembrance things going on.    

She sent me a picture of the Statue of Liberty from her running path.  

And this.  Brings chills as we remember.  

Toasty is becoming a New Yorker (4 more years of grad school) so he and his girl see it with new eyes.   So many changes in 25 years-- but we still remember. 

 

PERCY AND TULIP

Percy (Nicholas🎄) and Tulip (Tinsel) are thriving in their home. They went from hoarded dogs to pampered Pekes. I looked at a picture from early in their new life and now I can see a relaxing in their faces. 

Percy likes an occasional nap. 

Tulip is busy making sure the house is protected. 

They both get a lot of hugs.  They have come so far.  

Tulip is smaller than Percy.  She looks like a little princess here. 

As I follow and get updates on the Christmas rescue dogs, I still am amazed at all who stepped up to help.  Tinsel and all her siblings have changed lives because of rescue. ❤️
 

ZEKE—NURSE, GUARD DOG

Zeke has a new job.  His dad had surgery and is using a walker.  Helping his dad is his new job. 

Zeke loves his dad (he loves his mom too) so he remains close in case his dad needs help.  

His mom takes him out for now and guess what.  There was a deer there. 

The deer saw Zeke. Zeke saw the deer.  Zeke was barking and the deer was swinging his head and pawing the ground.  He wasn’t going to be bossed around by a little Pekingese!  🤣

Zeke said it’s easier helping his dad than trying to scare dangerous deer.  Maybe he can go in the front yard next time. 😉
 

HOLLY AND CODY HAVE A VISITOR

Holly is a beautiful girl.  She was in better shape than most of the Christmas pups. 

She and her brother Cody are good friends now.  At first Cody wasn’t too sure about her. 

Now they are best friends. Holly has become the sassy boss there.  SHE is now in charge. I love it!  🤣

They have a tiny cat visitor.  Cody and Holly are so good w her. All very calm. 

I’m surprised she didn’t curl up beside them.  Maybe she’s close by. 🥰

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. 😁
