Howllo Fellow Hound and Tank lovers!

I was taking a break from trying not to itch my poxes (is that a word)? and found this on the YouTubes! hehe

How touching. I need to find out more about Tank and his family. We are KY hound lovers.

Do your hounds eat too fast? This might help!

May 14th, 2008 - 10:10 am KY Time

Howllo fellow hound and not wanting your hounds to eat too fast lovers!
(how was that for a mouth full?)

This is just in from our Devon. As many of my readers know I have a specific page on my blog devoted to BLOAT

Here is the bowl that Devon found and you have to go to this link and see the mini video of the dog eating from it. It really works.

BREAK-FAST DOG FOOD BOWLS!

Thanks Devon for this fantastic update. Chaps is a slow eater, but I ordered one for Emma.

By the way, do you want to see a video I made of Chaps and Emma eating? I made it about a year ago, but it is still YUMMY!

Lynda of AZ Basset Rescue strikes gold out west!

May 13th, 2008 - 5:05 pm KY Time

Howllo Fellow Hound and AZ Gold Lovers:

AZBR_card.jpg

Our dear friend Lynda of Arizona Basset Hound Rescue has sent in a phenomenal package of gold and old watches for the House of Puddles Gold Rush. She sent it in weeks ago, but due to my Shingles malady I was remiss on getting it priced out. As you can see it is rather a large haul that took time to photograph and research at the jewlery store. Yummy!

Lynda, I love this package and I cannot thank you enough. Marilyn will be thrilled with the 48.80 dollars it has brought in. Some of the watches are still in consideration and I will update everyone as soon as I go to a watch shop I was referred to by my jeweler. One of the watches could be from the late 1800s! Very exciting indeed.

Lynda states, “It’s my pleasure to help the old hounds, I foster for Arizona Basset Hound Rescue and have some aged “forever fosters” myself. Marilyn may remember me, I always take part in her Raffles, and I’ve told her before she’s a hero to me!”

Well put Lynda, well put! Without folks like you, Marilyn could not carry on. It take a village. A village I am proud to call my own, and I am proud to have you as my neighbor!

Our FirstGiving page as been updated with your donation. I rounded it up!

“Shingles” and the City!

May 13th, 2008 - 9:09 am KY Time

Howllo Fellow Hound and Hating Shingles Lovers: OMG! I came down with a case of SHINGLES. Shingles can be brought on by a number of things, one of which is stress. I am sure this is the reason I came down with it. I have been so stressed out over Emma’s blindness that I guess my body broke down.

My doctor insisted on complete bed rest and I am happily obliging. Much to my delight HBO just loaded the final season of Sex and the City. 20 light hearted, mindless fun, shingles healing, delicious episodes. I have seen them all before but this time it was different. It was like I was seeing them for the first time. I really needed those hundreds of laughs. (I even cried a bit too)!

Hence, “shingles” and the city!

On the other hand, folks, shingles is no laughing matter but one to cry about if you don’t catch it in time. Please, please educate yourself on this condition that can happen to anyone that has had chicken pox. Yes, anyone that has had chicken pox. The virus lies dormant in your body and then whammo, it can come out as blisters that can be excruciatingly painful on one side of your body. It can last for weeks.
Without my proper prior knowledge I would have had a much worse case. I diagnosed it for my doctor.

You must start the anti-viral drug within 72 hours of coming down with shingles or the drug will not work.

OK, health class is over and hopefully I have saved someone from the gigantic headache of shingles.

I forgot my flippin’ camera!

Hellow Fellow Hound and wanting to see my Mother’s day pictures! Well, in true form, I forgot my camera! What a dork I am! Anyway, I can still show you one of the items I got my Mom. Here is the link to ABC’s Slobber Shoppe! I love this t-shirt! I bought my Mom the tropical pink one! She loves it. I bought myself the black one and wore it to our brunch today!

LINK TO LOOK AND BUY!

The pictures on the site do not do it justice. They sparkle like mad! I love these Rhinestone T-Shirts!

This was one of the gifts I got my Mom. I will try to update with a few other little items later.

Howllo Fellow Hound and bald Kip Lovers: We had so much fun last night in a barber shop chat room with Kip. I would have invited all of my readers, but it was on a private group board. I really would have loved to have it on my website! It sure was fun!

Lynne was present the entire time and it was so great to lend her some support.

Kip raised 185.00 dollars last night in honor of Lynne! Good Job! It only shows 85.00 on the page because both Lynne and her sister gave to the Gold Rush page. Hey, it all goes to the same place.
