It is so nice to have the green grass coming back. Take a look at some of our canine friends who have visited recently.

Kitten Needs Home

Well I have discovered a wonderful organization that is making a difference for pet owners and their animals. Pet Guardian Education & Animal Advocacy Services. First they try to help pet owners find a way to keep their pets instead of surrendering them to a shelter and if that fails they have a rescue program too. Well Minerva the kitten is being fostered in the rescue and looking for a forever home of her own. She is around 4 months old. If you might be interested please call Pet Guardian @ 215-499-6863. ***2/11/08 ***UPDATE: Minerva has found a forever home, thanks for looking!****

Play Day Fun

Well the pet sitting has been slower since the holidays. I get a little time off...just a little. I have had some play day guest though. Take a look at the pictures below of Benson (black lab mix), Lipton (yellow lab), Cooper (german short hair) & Dakota.

Merry Christmas & A Happy New Year

Dakota is growing big and strong. On Christmas Day she turned 4 months old. We started our Christmas weekend with visitors of the canine kind. We will have boarders through the New Year. No lack of love and affection in our house this season. All of our visitors were well behaved and are enjoying there vacation with the Landis'. Started out the season with Bailey (choc lab), her mom is traveling home for the holidays by plane. Then came Cooper (GSH), his family was driving to visit family up North. Then came Gracie (cockapoo) to visit on Christmas day and then back again for a few days while her parents escaped for a little while from puppy raising. The day after Christmas Sienna (choc lab) came to stay till after the New Year. She is our resident holiday dog. Hershey (choc lab) rounded off the week with her arrival while her family drove to visit family up North. Below a picture of Bailey -Chocolate Lab and Dakota - Yellow Lab wrestling.

A little cold never spoiled a good day to be outside...

It's been pretty cold here during the last week of November and the first week of December. Even though I mind the cold (some days in the 20's F) the dogs seem oblivious to it. As long as they want to go out, they do. Seems to be the same with my kids too. Less concern about the weather and more emphasis about playing. Today it has been a little warmer (40's) but raining, yuck.
Dakota is a true retriever. Here she has a stick and is enticing Bella (Shepherd mix) to play.
