Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and Richard lovers: Remember a few days ago I did a blog posting on how Richard, basset hound town resident and brother to Bailey and Clancy, had a bad cough thought to be kennel cough? Well himz feels better now and hardly coughed at all last night!

Here he is taking his vitimin D today. Soaking in all of the warmth.

You look so much better Richard. You were in good hands.

Richard would like to thank his fellow residents for all of the well wishes.

More well wishes later….Love, Cat, Chaps and Emma

Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and taking a stroll in Austria lovers…Well, OK taking a stroll on Facebook but I have a Facebook friend in Austria!

Imagine yourself walking the beautiful sides streets of Austria. You turn the corner and you see this coming at you! You shake your head and think….

I thought I was in Austria, not heaven!

Totally tubular!

Look at that perfect unison. Just delicious. These 2 are from My Destiny Basset Hound Kennel

Juiciness is the same in any language!

Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and grilling out lovers! It is just so odd that on 11-15-09 the neighbors are grilling out! It is just kind of weird that anyone grills out in the middle of November.

Anyway, today was really warm, reaching 68 degrees. I could not drag Chaps off of the back deck. I try to keep the kids away from the bottom area when folks are grilling next door. Howl ever our neighbors on the right had a howling audience tonight….The Mayor!

The Mayor watched the party for hours. I could not move him inside. He howled a few times. But for the most part he just watched…..and smelled.

More grilling out later……..Love, Cat, Chaps and Emma

P.S. please don’t feel sorry for the Mayor. I made sure he got a chicken finger. He was thrilled.

Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and eBay lovers….

I am not a huge eBay person. I hardly ever look anymore. I do have some eBay alerts but I don’t actively look anymore. For the most part, I just cannot afford to buy anything. Plus, I have so much basset hound stuff.

The best stuff I have, Chaps and Emma! LOL……

I thought you would like to see the very first item I bought on ebay. Like I said in the title of this blog, it remains my favorite! Is that not too funny?

It is this solid brass boy basset hound sitting in my kitchen window with the blue bird of happiness. I also have a twig that was in the flower arrangement my sister sent me when Chloe passed. I just find the combination so comforting when I turn on the lights in my kitchen each morning. It makes me smile. Also, if I get up late, the sun hits both pieces and that is really cool…..

I wish I could sleep in more mornings! hehehehe

More sharing window art later….Love, Cat, Chaps and Emma

P.S. Richard, her 3rd hound is very sick with what appears to be kennel cough. I have asked Audra for an update so hopefully she will add a comment here and maybe a picture of our fine fellow. Hang in there Richard. Everyone is very worried. He was in another room after taking his medicine.

Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and Mr. KY lovers!

Our guy is laying on a couch tonight! Mr. KY has a home! Thank Dog. I was worried about him. He was so wild and scared. It has been a long time coming. This boy has been without a forever home for about 2 months. He was picked up by our AC officer as a dump.

Our pound kept him for about a month! Our pound is so wonderful. They contacted all of the area basset hound rescues and no one could take him. The reason, “FULL” kind of makes me mad.

So, thank Dog our area all breed took Mr. KY!

I love Terry, my AC officer. She made this adoption happen.

More crooked legs later…Love, Cat, Chaps and Emma

Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and going to the vet as a pack lovers! I took Chaps and Emma to the vet today for their monthly nail clip, deep ear clean and rear end check. Yes, basset hound rear ends get a bit clogged up from time to time. Those darn glands….

Anyway, I loaded everyone in the Basset Hauling Vehicle and off we went. I had to show you this picture because Grandpa is wearing the coolest jacket! See for yourselves!

I bought it for him years ago. It was when Ralph Lauren introduced the Chaps line again. Interestingly, that is how Chaps got his name. His breeder named all of the hounds after cologne. Chaps sister is named Diamond and Rubies.

Turns out Emma is allergic to cologne…..one of the many things. As an aside, her Dr. said that her skin looked really good today!

Yeah!

Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and washing Chaps and Emma Face lovers! Grandma is so sweet and I cannot thank her enough. Every now and then we wash the kids faces but today she did it on her own. I had to take this picture…

I was in my office and moved back in my chair and loved this image of Grandma washing Chaps face!

Then everyone was in on this photo of Emma getting her face washed!

LOL! Look at Chaps looking on!

More washing faces later….Love, Cat, Chaps and Emma

Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and Mr. KY lovers:

Well, I just got off the phone with my and friend and Animal Control Officer about Mr. KY. This past Saturday, a family that saw him on my website came and took him home for a trial run. Terry, said she agreed to it because they had actually adopted from SAAP before.

I am anxious to see his tail in a different position from this!

Operation GET THAT TAIL UP in progress….
