House of Puddles BEGGING……..

June 18th, 2009 - 11:11 am KY Time

Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and breaking news lovers.

BEGGING! Dog transport help needed 6-20/21-09 AL/TN/VA/MD/PA includes senior coming 2 HOP.

A few moments ago I was checking Twitter and saw that Marilyn at HOP needs help with a transport that is going on this weekend. There is a Sr. on the transport named Patty. OMG, I love that name. I would call her little Patty Cake. Anyway, I clicked on the transport link to take a look just as clap of thunder hit.

Chaps had been laying under my desk when he heard the rain start. You can see the transport link up on my monitor.

The Mayor says, “Look at me instead”!

You know I had to kiss that cheek a few times. He was right in the kissing position!

Here is the transport link, please take a look and see if you can help!

Jesse Potts Email Trans Help Needed 6-20!6!21

Make sure you click the slide bar inside of the widow and go all the way through to see the legs that need to be filled.

As usual, even if the Mayor is scared, he does his part! hehehe

More kissing cute Mayors Later….Love, Cat, Chaps and Emma

Breaking news about Chaps Yellow Pages cover!

June 9th, 2009 - 5:05 pm KY Time

Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and Chaps being on the Yellow Pages cover lovers! We have good news and bad news. Let’s go with the not so bad news first. The Yellow Pages were supposed to be out this month but the Yellow Pages have been pushed out their new introduction until September. Sigh………..

I think the good news out weighs the bad. This addition will be a 15 month run! Yes! Chaps will be on the cover for 15 months so the Mayor is very happy about that!

I actually spoke with the woman who was in charge of the contest and she is very nice. Her and I are working together on a few ideas which will be forth coming! She also saw a sneak peek at the cover and she said that Chaps looks great! This is so exciting. I will be obtaining extra copies of the Yellow Pages and Chaps will be signing them.

So, stay tuned for more information about our cover boy! I think this is a picture of the shoot you have not seen yet.

Winnie’s tummy tuck was a bit more complicate than expected…

May 21st, 2009 - 9:09 am KY Time

Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and Winnie of HOP Lovers: I was just getting caught up on the news wires that I follow on line….Twitter, boards, forums, blogs, alerts, and more. I want to keep my dear readers updated. I just saw this report on Winnie, the poor, poor gal who had so many litters and who is now at House of Puddles. Marilyn states,

“The vet said there was way to much skin to just take a little out and she would have had to cut through the mammary glands. Then she found what she believes to be a mast cell tumor, so she decided it would be better to give her a full mastectomy. The tumor was sent out for analysis. She also said she could tell from the way needles went through her skin and how her uterus almost fell apart during the spay that she had been fed a very poor diet, extremely low in protein. So I’m to give her extra chicken or hamburger with her regular dinner (poor Winnie, think she’ll survive that?). But she won’t be having any more puppies, nor will she be posing in a bikini anytime soon.”

Winnie is in the best hands possible. We will all wait for our next update.

More pretty in pink later….Love, Cat, Chaps and Emma

Happy Gotchaday, Winnie!

May 10th, 2009 - 6:06 pm KY Time

Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and waiting for an update on Winnie Lovers! Well here it is, right from Marilyn of House of Puddles:

Winnie got here around noon. She growled as each dog came up to greet her, but it was just a warning, kind of like, “Wait a minute, not so fast”. She seems more at ease with them now. She’s a very sweet girl, loves human attention, and really is very polite. She ate all of her dinner except for about 4 pieces of kibble, as if she thought it wouldn’t be lady like to clean her plate. She really looks quite healthy and I haven’t seen any evidence of being abused yet, either physically or mentally.

She enjoyed exploring her new yard.

Wondering when dinner will be served.
