Happy Holidays

I wish ever one I know joy in our days. Bud keeps me smiling. After this photo shot of use, Gracie found her forever home. Gracie I would take care of for the rest of her life but Gracie told me that she wanted to live with a good friends' pack with a mom and dad ( She wanted a Man ) I am so gratful becaue  I like to have Bud alone for awhile until the next puppy comes.

Missing Ginger

My favorite boxer- pit bull mix died suddenly I never got to kiss her good bye. I saw her last week before she died and she always gave me her sweet soft kisses. She was my best girl. When I first saw her, she was always in motion jumping for the frisbee or ball. She was built like a tank. She was a Force of Life, with her zest for life and love. Bud and I feel in love with when she went to defend Bud from two Bloodhounds. She was ready to fight them. She was more a lover than I fighter.
When Dave, her person found out that  Ginger had Lupus we had her come over to play inside. Bud loved her because she played rough like a boy dog. Bud fell into her spell. She taught Bud a bad habit like barking i my face like Ginger did to Dave to get her way. We have loved her for so many years and she left with no warning. She died while walking near my house like many times. Dave said she stumbled  and looked at him as he was holding her and then her heart stopped beating. She never suffered one bit. She died in her guys' arms. She is missed.
 Now when Bud barks in my face I say Okay Ginger whatever you want. We go on living thinking thinking of are beloved dogs last days because they don't worry they are too busy having fun. They leave the worrying  to us. Smart dogs they live to enjoy each moment. Good lessons for us. Ginger is a real angel

My Thanksgiving Day

God blessed me with loving friends and great dogs. Bud has been the best dog ever and I see him aging and slowing down but I also am getting older. Bud still loves to go to the beach every day for his playtime. He used to play for hours and hours --now I time him to 15 minutes of hard play then I blow the whistle and he comes up the stairs. I am so happy he is in my life. Gracie found her God Parents I call them and Gracie loves to be with their pack She has bonded with Molly a female and they are best of friends. Gracie gets more beach time with them than I ever give her. We are spending are day with them. Gracie loves Mark and Jackie and I am grateful for time alone with Bud.
Ever day is a gift from God. Hope you have a beautiful day.

Thanksgiving Day

The holiday of Thanksgiving is one of love and sharing God's gifts. I often fall short of being grateful and then I am embarrassed ed by my self -conceitedness. 

Buddy Therapy Dog part two

I had to be out of my house for some work to be done. We lived in a large studio apartment with a large sliding door opening to a large patio running the -length  at Casa De Flores for 5 weeks. Our apartment patio we had easy acess for potty time. And we met three  dogs that lived there and we heard them barking when the heard us walking by there apartment I meet a toy poodle  through  a opening of his fencing, he was adorable and another small dog next door to him. We met the third  dog a wire hair Jack Russel outside for potty breaks. The dog used to live on an acreage with his owner know he is living in an apartment which is fine since he love to be with his person.
Bud was very happy to make so many new friends. We did two presentations about service dog. The group loved it. Every one was happy  to see him, from  the nurse and the caregiver and the van driver the maintenance men to the house keepers the kitchen staff, to the people living there. They were all sad when we left to come home. I made so good friends there. I am blessed to be back home.
