My grand daughter calls me Poppa.  This is Poppa's puppy, Poppy.  I love my animals!  I adopted him from the animal shelter.  ...some lady just abandoned him and another one just like him.  My daughter got the other one!

 

 

 

Joan,

This is going to be a wonderful event, I'm sure.  Who can resist all those little furry faces smiling at you as you walk by?  Not me!  I'm a sucker for them!

As you can tell....

Jon...What a cutie! I love Yorkies (he is a Yorkie?)

Here are my two...both rescues! Dandi and Tidbit

Carol..something told me you would be an animal lover!!

Joni~

 

Oh I love your posts...and so do my tow rescued furr-pals... THX for the L-U-V

Hello Joan,
Promoting the rescue of abandoned animals is high on my list.  Thanks.

Good Morning Joan!  I do so love my pets and this is a fabulous post my friend. Enjoy your day!

My favorite thing to do is get gifts for my pooches- they love everything, they don't tell me that it's the wrong color/size, and they play with whatever it is until it ISN'T (especially the bulldog).  Thanks for the reminder that another gift giving opportunity approaches- Oliver will thank you, as well! :)

Joan - Buddy was a stray wandering the alleys when we found him (or he found us!) and neither one of us could stand to see him eating out of garbage cans.  The rest is history.

When we took him to the vet for the first time the doc asked where we had gotten him.  I said he was a stray...Good ol' doc says, "Yeah - they always know where the suckers live!" and then he laughed like mad.  But after the exam he said that Buddy would probably not get past 40 pounds.  I was ok with that.  But today - at a whopping 92 pounds.....

When I took him back in for a checkup or something (can't remember) I told doc that this was the pup he said wouldn't get past 40 pounds.  His answer? "So I lied!" and then he laughed and gave the Bud-Man a hug.

I've always had animals - dogs, cats, horses, cows, birds, fish.  Life isn't complete without an animal or two running around! 

   This is Josie, she thinks she can drive the Z3. She was the runt of the litter but we love her. She got snake bit about six weeks ago but is doing great now.  I dont we could get her calm enough for a picture taken at one of these events. she gets so excited it takes about 30 minutes of walking the parking lot before we can go in Pet Smart.

 

 

Joan, I love animals too, these are wonderful events!  My own little sweetheart (Maltese) was named Tidbit, he was such a little, delicate guy...with a loud and scary bark :)  I worked for a time at a no kill shelter but they are on overload over here with animals.....so sad.

Hi janeAnne...haven't talked to you in ages! Good to see your name. I haven't done any "green" posts lately but have a good one in mind for nicer weather!

Your babies are adorable!

Hi Cynthia...they just seem to really know and be appreciative!

Hi Julie....by what means will we travel today??

Laurie...I have been known (now don't repeat this),when money is tight....to put old toys in their Christmas stockings....and they still love them!

Carol...I had to laugh at what your Vet said...and it didn't surprise me...you're a softie!

95 lbs!! that's a BIG dog...mine are about 12lbs and maybe 16...LOL

OMG Vicki ...lokk at that face!!! How can you say no to that??

Carole...you have two now right? Do you still have the dog you sort of inherited?

Joan, they don't care if it's a sock (and I've lost plenty of matches), as long as it's from us. God love 'em.

I often get left out of the fun as my wife favors our pugs over my poor sense of humor. February is for pet lovers=truth.

Here is my rescued pet!  She was abandoned in Nashua - and had 6 kittens -- when found.  Everyone wanted the kittens -- I took Mom!  She is great -- if I didn't have allergies, I would have adopted a couple of kittens as well.

Laurie...and that's the truth!!!

Awww Mike...you sound sad...why not take a puggys picture and go to one of those places that do coffee cups etc. and get a cup and a key chain and a bookmark etc(you get my drift) she will get pugged out and think you're terribly funny!

Joan...she's so pretty! I'm allergic too. Do you have to take medicine every day?

I had a picture of mine taken at Halloween and then blown up and made into a canvas portrait.  Get a picture taken.

Gayle...was it a picture of both? You should post it here!
