Does 2 always lead to 3??

[Daisy's Mom]

Oh that would be fun! We should build our own town and all move there... Pettalkville!

Pettalkville! Hehe! I would move there in a second. Wouldn't it be great to have all the emotional support we get here in person? And all the petsitters? People would be fighting over who got to petsit who! None of our dogs would ever be alone because someone would always want to watch them while we're away. And imagine the block parties we could have Oh Christmas would be FUN! Lets see, a tiara for Hannah, a new outfit for Simba, a garbage can full of dog treats for Daisy ......

I'm packing my bags and dogs and movin'!

What a joyful place! bug says "all those people to throw the ball for me!" we'd have the best block parties. and the most exclusive pet shops. all the manufacturers of toys would be talking to us for trial runs of toys and foods. And we could say "No you use sub-ingredients! " "that lead ball inside is poisonious to dogs - get that toy outta pettalkville!"
Could we have a Feline Farm? and a Horse Rescue-where the mares and foals can be rescued from Premarin hormone replacement hell?
Oh and a pond or fountain for puppy playing - and once a month fill it with bubbles for community dog wash?! (just one big water fight!)

[Daisy's Mom]

Hehe Aly! Daisy would love that I see Sammii has started a post about Pettalkville. It really would be a great place to live! Daisy is exciting just THINKING about meeting her girl buds, Star, Cinder, and Hannah, and she has her droopy brown eyes on a couple of your boys too, but I'm not supposed to tell who

What's the address? We're there! All 11 of us (2 humans and 9 poochies)

[RachelJ]

Mugsy, you aren't going to get off that easy. We want to know about each and every one of your 9 dogs. Details, girl, details.
You just can't come here saying you've got 9 dogs and leave it at that. Get to writing....

[mugsy]

Ok Rachel!!! Sheesh!!!! I thought everyone knew about our dogs!! lol Ok, here I go....
Dog #1= Sox= 3/4 Aussie, 1/4 GSD, female
Dog #2= Tigger= 1/2 Husky, 1/2 Pit, male
Dog #3= Jasmine aka Jazzy= Great Dane female
Dog #4= Shawna= Aussie, female
Dog #5= George= Hound mix, male
Dog #6 = Serenity = Boxer/Pit mix, female
Dog #7 = Billy = Beagle, male
Dog #8 = DeeDee = Border Collie mix, female
Dog #9 = Vonney = Chow/Aussie? mix, male

Sox (3yrs old) is the only one from a litter, but we still call her a rescue since 4 of the 6 pups died from worms. Tigger (2.5 years old) came as a result of someone bringing him as an 8 week old pup to where my husband worked at the time and saying that if someone didn't take him the guy was going to take him home and shoot him. Jasmine (22 months old) and Shawna (between 3 and 5 years old) are both from the local Animal Care and Control. Jazzy was 3 months old and had been shoved into one of the recepticles and Shawna was a stray who had had her tags ripped off and dumped. George (1 year old) came to us as a result of someone dumping him in our neighbor's backyard and they couldn't keep him. Serenity (1.5 years old) came from the SPCA after being there for almost a year and had come there much the same way we got Tigger. Billy (2 years old) was our neighbor's dog and he kept digging out under his kennel (he was outdoors 24/7) and coming down to our house and the guy decided that when Billy's eye went blind (as a result of the owner's stupidity) he didn't want him anymore and was going to dump him in the woods and my husband stepped in and said "I don't think so" and now we have him and we had to have his eye removed because something had gotten in it and the lens exploded. DeeDee (10 months) and Vonney (1.5 years old) both came from the Animal Welfare League in a small town near Fort Wayne and both were near the needle and I couldn't resist them. I might point out the director is soooo qualified (NOT) he is a chef by trade and just indiscriminately puts dogs down. Ok, I think I've babbled long enough now. Did you get all that Rachel? I'll bet you're sorry you asked now!! hehehehe

[Sudilar]

mugsy, you're a rescue shelter all by yourself!!! How much room do you have? I am soooooooo proud of you! We'd like to give you and your husband a big hug!!! Thanks for saving so many lives!

[Daisy's Mom]

Mugsy how lucky you are to have such a large canine family Sue's right, you are a rescue center! What a great person you are. Nine dogs in the world have a loving home thanks to you!

[mugsy]

Weeeeellllll.....we have 1060 square feet upstairs and 1060 square feet in the basement of which 675 square feet are finished and we have about 1/4 of an acre in the backyard that is fenced. We may get one more, I'm looking at a Weim in Missouri and a Weim pup in California, OR there is a sweet little hound mix at the SPCA that I fell in love with the other day. But I am NOT getting all 3...there is a limit unfortunately. Thanks for the congrats, after last week's incident with our neighbors I needed that.

[RachelJ]

Thanks for telling us about the kids. There must never be a dull moment in your house.
Best wishes you and your husband for all the love that you provide, and which I know must be returned over and over and over and over again. Did you ever try to take a family picture?

[mugsy]

Oh Rachel, you ARE a funny woman!! lol We can barely get them to sit still long enough to get pictures of ONE of them let alone ALL of them! When we get our scanner up and running, you will be sorry you asked to see them because I will be a scannin' fool! Thanks for your best wishes,I will pass them along to hubby and the kids and YES YES YES the love is returned 100 fold. Please excuse my stupidity, but what are your babies?

[bugmom]

Did you get that addition you were thinking about, Mugsy?

[RachelJ]

Mugsy, all the rest of the posters were cringing when you asked about my babies because they knew it meant another picture. I've posted this one a while back, but it is my favorite one: Tucker in front, Hannah in back.
