Thankful For Toby!

Hi buddies!

    Mom is still playing "catch up" now that she's home from BlogPaws. She had a terrific time and she came home with treats, toys and fresh ideas fur us! She'll be posting all about her adventures over the next week!

Unfortunately, the day after she came home, our Toby cat started to slow down.

      Toby and his pal Mo came to live with mom long before I did. There are stories in my house how the two of them trained mom's previous pup Matilda! Mo passed over the Rainbow Bridge a while back and we still miss that debonaire dude!
    Toby made his journey over the Rainbow Bridge last night, so today we're very thankful for all the good times and purrs he shared with us. Toby was over 20 years old, and mom says he had the most beautiful eyes a kitty could have. She knows he'll always be watching over us.

Thanks fur stopping by!

Wordless Wednesday!

Not So Wordless Wednesday!

After the drive down to Virginia, they had a lovely dinner with the Nutrish representatives and some other terrific bloggers including Caren of Dakota's Den, Amber of Mazie's Dog Blog, DeAnna of Kona's Corner and Preston & his folks of Preston Speaks.

    Of course, I'm chilling out with my crew at my home away from home, the Barker Lounge! Mom's promised me that she'll do her best to get the hang of posting from her iPad so we can keep you up to date with all the fun happenings at BlogPaws!

Counting Down To BlogPaws!

Hi buddies!

    The house is buzzing with activity this week! BlogPaws begins this Thursday and mom is so excited to be going again! The planning, the lists! She's driving me kooky!

    There's so much to do and learn at BlogPaws! Lots of great information for bloggers, tweeters and animal companions. Because I can be a "hand full", I'll be staying at my home away from home. Not to worry 'tho, mom's going to be toting "Prudence on a Stick", so be on the lookout fur her!

(My flat self hanging out with the other doppelgangers!)

     The best part of our news is mom is being sponsored by Rachel Ray's Nutrish® Dog Food! We really do love Nutrish® here at Chez Pru! It's the only food I eat!

We'll be keeping you posted buddies! More to follow & thanks so much fur stopping by! Barooooo!

Tuedsay's Tails Blog Hop

 Hi Buddies!

      For today's Tuesday's Tails, we'd like to feature a few of the adoptable dogs available from my "Alma Mater" Eleventh Hour Rescue.

                            Meet Bluebell, a young Bluetick coonhound loves the outdoors!

This poor pup was found chained to a tree, but she's happy and safe now. Just waiting for a forever home. We really do have a soft spot here fur the hounds!

 Next we have Snoozy!

 

 
   This poor fella was surrendered by his people to a high kill shelter *shaking head*. He's safe now, living with his foster family. Snoozy is up to date on his shots and is neutered. It's believed that he'll do best in an adult-only home. His new family will have to have some experience with scared dogs, as this poor fellow will nip on occasion.

Ceasar is a  3-year-old, 70 lb. Harrier Hound mix. 

     Ceasar is good with other dogs and he loves meeting new people! "He loves sleeping on the sofa, on the bed and lying on your lap - he thinks he is a 70-lb. lap dog!" This boy sounds a lot like me!

     "Ceasar is a free spirit, ready to explore what Mother Nature has to offer (like a typical hound), therefore an active household is preferred & a fenced-in yard is a "must". He is house trained, crate trained, neutered, & up to date on his shots."

     Please consider opening your heart and home to a rescue pet! Check out the Eleventh Hour Website for more information on these and other wonderful dogs and cats!.
 
    We're still counting down to BlogPaws! Mom's being sponsored by the good people at Nutrish®, and we'd like to mention that a portion of the proceeds from the sales of Nutrish® go to the North Shore Animal League, BAD RAP (Bay Area Doglovers Responsible About Pitbulls, ASPCA and America's VetDogs (Veterans' K-9 Dogs).

 Thanks fur stopping by buddies!
