My Nephew turns 10 years old today! We had his Birthday party last night and here is a 2 minute video of the fun. Julian had a great time! He is such a good kid. Hi Julian, I love you! Aunt Kit Cat, Chaps and Emma


This is a poem written by Julian several weeks ago. I saved it for his birthday post! Please enjoy!

POEM BY JULIAN
Nice, funny, happy
Step brother, cousin, son, grandson
Dreams of being a doctor
Wishes to go to Harvard
Who wonders what the world will be like after
College
Who feels excited for summer!
Who likes everybody!!!!
Who needs to have love

Who gives friendship to good and nice people
Who would like to always be loved and cared
for the rest of my life
Julian

Ozark Mountain Basset Rescue – Back to school shopping!

July 8th, 2007 - 12:12 pm KY Time

Howllo Fellow Hound and Rescued Hound Lovers:

The good folks of OMBR would love for you to do your back to school shopping on their website. If I had a kid going to school, I would buy this in a heart beat for a back pack. Messanger bags are all the rage now.

Click on this link and go to their store for more back to school stuff. I know it is a bit early, but they really need the money now. Remember, July is a high dump month for dogs. OMBR is really feeling the pain. So, get your shopping done early and you and your kids can feel good about helping needy hounds while looking good! Sounds like a WIN/WIN to me! hehehehehehehehehehehehehehe,

More Later….Cat, Chaps (wants to strap one on his back), Emma wants to go to kindergarden and lick all the children!

I have learned of an important organization called Animal Resources, Inc. Here is their mission statement….

“Animal Resources is dedicated exclusively to providing disaster management solutions for animals by offering our extensive knowledge and experience through a variety of educational and training programs, as well as comprehensive response and recovery services.”

They were last in Bartlsville, Oklahoma to assist the Washington County SPCA.

I heard from folks in the Bartlsville OK, area that this is a fantastic organization that is all about helping. They even offer grief counseling for pet owners in these dire situations. I heard they come with boats and comb the water ways for distressed drowning animals. 🙂

They are on my blogroll.
This has been a public service announcement from your Mayor, Chaps Rudert!

Roxie comes full circle!

Howllo Fellow Hound and soon to be Zachary lovers:

May we introduce you to the Firecracker Pup #9 – Zachary-

2583

This just in from Dawn of the West
Zachary who was born further down south in California – and who’s human owners took him to a vet at one day of age (6/20/07) saying that his mommy rejected him. A WONDERFUL gal, Becky, took him to her home and began bottle feeding little Mr. Zach.

As luck would have it and unbeknownst to us until a day after Roxie arrived here at Daphneyland, Becky was bottle feeding Zach and doing a great job. The concern is that no one had expected Zach to survive and Becky has travel plans beginning in a week – poor little Zach – no litter mates and all alone… who will feed Zach and socialize him???

Zach will be arriving to meet Roxie and his potential litter-mates this Sunday at BaRNI of Daphneyland.

Thank for the update Dawni, keep um coming!

Wow, what a story. It really is the circle of life. Roxie get rescued by a group of caring dear souls and then she rescues little Zach. Lets all hope he is accepted into her litter. I think he has a good chance, bassets are the most accepting souls on the planet. Slurp,

More Later….Cat, Chaps and Emma

Meet my new boy friend! GUS!

July 5th, 2007 - 10:10 pm KY Time

7-6-07 – Update: Please read the comments for Gus. There is a small update from Melynda who volunteers at the HOP.

Howllo fellow hound lovers: Can you imagine an old basset guy getting dropped off in front of a PetSmart, skinny and sick?

They said someone just dropped him off in front of the store and drove off. He wandered in on his own and they fixed him a bed and called the humane society

2557

This is Gus. He is now at the House of Puddles. Thank Dog he found his way to the House of Puddles.

He is so sick and not eating. This is why we need donations. Poor Gus. He is my boy friend.

Howllo Fellow Hound lovers: There is a glitch with keeping Lily’s basset bucks at the top of her category. I am trying to figure it out but for now, click on Lily Basset Bucks in the category section. Then scroll down to Lily Basset Buck Tally. I am so sorry about this. I really try to make it simple, but sometimes I cannot not. However, Please, send me a dollar! Can you imagine if I just got one dollar from the masses? Just one? Will you collect some dollars for us? Thanks! and Slurp!
