    **new Family Member!*

    ACK! I'm so beyond excitement, I've been in happy tears! Dear mom and I went to the local SPCA yesterday and guess what I did??? I rescued my newest family member... Since they were full, we had to take her unprepared, immediately!!! I thought I'd pass out... "She" is a GSD mix (Yo! LIZ!!!) with GR ears and some purple spots on her tongue. She is about 2, calm, sweet, can sit, down, and stay. I already walked her and taught her to heel which she did pretty good. Being outside sends her into a frenzy..previous owners crated her all day and she slept in a newspaper laid garage floor all night..they had no yard. I bought a crate and she hated it..so off it goes. I ignored her at night..made her "down" "sleep" and she was a perfect angel. Already my velcro dog, by my side fast asleep. When she "downs" she crosses her paws like a lady. I'm trying desperately not to pet her constantly. She did her stuff outside and got tons of praises and seemed to understand. No problems. Unlike my big galoot, she isn't interested in "treats" or people food, and that's the new house law too..... Ok, here's the best part... I had made a promise to my dear friend Logan that if I ever got another dog, she'd have a namesake...so....friends...LOGAN it is! And she responds to it already. Her birth name was Rocky. The neighbor took digitals last night, me in ponytail, no makeup and puffy crying eyes..He's gonna post them and then I'll email them off to you all..... Always wanted a GSD mix and I got my wish. Thank you God, Daddy, Cody and Nana for answering my prayers. I ought to pray more often...... Couldn't sleep..I am filled with absolute happiness. Sigh! My new best girlfriend....



    I've been Boooo'd!

    Woo hoo!! Karen, when you called last night to give me the news, I was ALMOST as happy as you were! No, I think that's impossible! And like we assured you, you knew just when the first time would be and just who the right poochie would be! Logan (keeping them straight is going to be a hard one!) sounds like the most precious angel, sent from Heaven above! What a lucky, lucky doggie and what a lucky Mom! Me, Cody and Star wish you and Logan many, many, MANY years of love, laughter and HAPPINESS!! Congratulations to my dear friend! Give the sweetie a big hug and kiss from Auntie Sandra! And Karen, I know that Cody is looking down from the RB, so happy to see his Mommy smiling again!

    There is JOY in PetTalkville

    Oh Happy Day, when Little Logan came to stay....

    You know there is no one on this earth who is happier for you than I am. K9 Karen without a dog is just not K9 Karen now is she? And you found the perfect one for you. I really do believe it.

    I thought I would "bust a gut"

    with excitement, of course, holding in this wonderful news until Karen could get on here herself!! I finally emailed her this morning and said "tell me when you have finally posted, otherwise, I'll be in Pet Talk every five minutes"! And I almost was!!!!

    That phone call last night reduced me to a weepy mess, but thankfully a "cry for happy" (one of my favorite sayings)!!!!

    I am honored and thankful that this precious girl has joined Karen and her mom!!! What a happy, happy day!!!!

    Logan (the other one)
