Blind Emma Observation!!!

August 25th, 2008 - 7:07 pm KY Time

Howllo Fellow Hound and Blind Basset Lovers: I had the most fascinating observation last night regarding Emma.  I was walking behind her towards the kitchen and a chair was out of place.  As she approached the chair, that she did not know was there, she swung her ears and the one closest to the chair hit it.  I have since noticed that she swings her ears before her to detect objects.  How smart and fascinating is she for doing this?  I thought it might be a fluke, but I have followed her like a hawk today and she does do this. She swings her long ears to monitor what is in front of her.  This is so fantastic!   Survival of the fittest!

Howllo Fellow Hound and out of ICU lovers!  I am on the phone with our Susan right now and she says, “Hi” to all of her friends.  She is thrilled to be out of ICU and in the main patient area.  She is looking forward to returning home to Toby and Daisy, her bassets!  She also is saying that she loved all of the cards and the get well messages!

She said that the drool is REALLY helping so keep it coming.

Howllo Fellow Urgent Hound Lovers:  Please look at this post and  also look at the blog posting below.  This hound is with that hound!  You know what I mean!

Email post

Would you be able to help these dogs?    We are a small, rural shelter with only 12 indoor kennels.  We have been slammed with about 27 dogs in one week and will have to euthanize dogs who are not still on stray-hold on Monday.  These two dogs’ stray-hold is up on Tuesday and are on the euthanasia list for Wednesday.  Any help is appreciated.  Thanks.

OMG you have to see this mixed hound.  Has anyone ever heard of a basset - great Pyrenees mix?  I have not but look at this guy!  He is a designer hound!  LOL!

A great basset!

All kidding a side, this is one good looking hound.  Look at the lace ears.  I hate to be a big wet blanket, but this guy is on the euthanasia list for this Wednesday.  He is one of two that I will post from this shelter.

Mr. Arden is next.  I should call him, Mr. bones.

Hey, we all do the best we can.
